Also speaking at the event, the chairman of NNPP in Àkókó North West local government, expressed his satisfaction with the choice of Oluwaseyi as the party’s flag bearer in
He said, “Long before his political ambition, he has been lifting a lot of people out of poverty which I’m sure he’s still going to be doing more if given the chance to represent the people”
One of the beneficiaries of the grants, Mrs. Balogun Titilayo thanked Hon. Oluwaseyi for always been there for his people.
“Hon. Oluwaseyi is not just doing this to gain popularity or gain vote, but he’s doing this because he is a special giver. He personally presented roofing sheets for over hundred houses affected by rainstorm in Okeagbe”, she said.
