A MESSAGE OF APPRECIATION ON MY INAUGURATION AS MEMBER, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
I profoundly express my immense gratitude to my people in Ekiti North Federal Constituency l, Ekiti State and Nigeria in general on the reclamation of our mandate and my subsequent swearing-in ceremony
I am indeed grateful for this great feat because it represents a great milestone in our quest for justice, fairplay, equity and good governance in our body polity. I am equally thrilled by your support and the manner the case was logically and decorously pursued with the resultant success.
I particularly express my immense appreciation to our dynamic leaders, the Governor of Ekiti State, His Excellency, Dr John Kayode Fayemi; his wife, Erelu Bisi Fayemi; the deputy governor, Otunba Bisi Egbeyemi; the former Governor of Ekiti State, His Excellency, Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo; former deputy governor, Prof Modupe Adelabu and other esteemed leaders for their invaluable support and meaningful leadership that have brought light to the dark political firmament of the State.
My huge gratitude also goes to the leadership and members of the Executive Council of our great Party, the All Progressive Congress ( APC ) at the National, State and local government levels down to the Wards and Units levels for their support and great efforts in ensuring that justice is done and the mandate restored.
Much thanks to the Speaker, House of Representatives, Rt. Hon Femi Gbajabiamila for his sacrifices and the political sagacity exhibited which translated to my inauguration and which certainly, will positively redirect the destiny of Nigerians and Ekiti in particular.
I am deeply indebted to the Elekole of Ikole Ekiti and Paramount Ruler of Egbe Oba Kingdom, His Royal Majesty, Oba Ajibade Fasiku and the Elekole-in-Council for their royal advice, blessings and support. Also appreciated is the impactful solidarity displayed by women, youths, students, drivers, artisans and other categories of people. As promised, I will not betray your trust.
As a member of the House of Representatives, I am committed to selfless community services, the mandate of which you have given to me and because my word is my bond, good representation and quality service and other indices of good governance, shall form the bulwark of my activities while also acting as your servant-legislator.
However, I implore us all to come together in our strides to develop the Constituency as there is strength in unity. I also solicit your support and cooperation in the task of building a new and virile socio-economic environment for the common good of the people.
It has clearly shown that promotion is only of God and the circumstances that put the mandate of leadership on any person is pre-destined.I therefore pray that the Lord will continue to be our guiding light and may our Constituency, Ekiti State and Nigeria in general continually experience peace and transformation.
Once again,I thank you all. You are all marvellous.
