The Council further commended the Honourable for his consistent developmental strides, people-friendly projects, and unrelenting advocacy for better living conditions within the constituency.

Ipokia is proud to have a leader who listens, speaks, and acts for the people. The youth community pledges unwavering support for his vision and commitment to the progress of our land,” the statement added.


The NYCN Secretariat also called on the State Government, the National Assembly, and the Inspector-General of Police to act promptly on the Assembly’s resolution, stressing that the well-being of citizens must remain the top priority in every security measure.

> “We stand with Hon. Otunba Bisi Oyedele in this noble cause. His action rekindles hope and inspires a new wave of youth confidence in leadership driven by purpose and humanity,” the release concluded.
