HE is an indigene of Igando/Ikotun Local Council Development Area, one of the large subdivisions of the vast Alimosho Local Govt Area of Lagos state.
He has very amiable character laced with humility and discipline.
He remains an outright humanitarian entity characterised with philanthropic attributes hard to find in several humans, idiosyncratic endowments which reflect in all his terrestrial conducts. Little wonder he had ever committed himself to services that affect humanity for welfare and wellbeing. His spirited devotion to organizations like FOOD CLIQUE and other superb Non Governmental Organisations that fights injustice from all fronts, he is an egalitarian and utilitarian who believes in public good, reasons he has a penchant for politics and leadership, passion that energized him to join the political party Action Congress, AC that became Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN and then All Progressives Congress, APC, showing unflinching loyalty through the evolutionary stages till date.
Certainly, this patriotic young man has shown unalloyed love, loyalty and readiness to fly the party’s flag towards sustaining its original mandate to provide developmental and people oriented governance.
