MY RESPONSE TO TERRY OJO MACSON Haven waited for a while, I felt I should make some clarifications since each aspirant is expected to answer to his fathers name. Three issues were raised about me. One, dat Im a feather-weight, two, dat Im seeking relevance, three, dat Im a wrecker. My response. With all modesty, I wish to state dat among all d 7 supposed aspirants, politically Im d most senior and most experienced. while Ive joined full active politics since August 1998, Chief Ojukannaiye and myself conducted d very first PDP meeting in E/Adde in 1998, after which I introduced Kolade Fagbemi to d party in 2001, we received Hon Olumoko and Ade Omofaiye into PDP in 2006, Bayo Olumoko joined in 2010, Fola Dare and Emmanuel Obadunmi joined politics in 2013. In d last 16years, Im sure to have gone round all d towns annd villages of Ijumu not less than 40 times, working for individuals aspiration or d party and can name every politician, community leader or stake-holder in each of those towns and villages. If with this Im still a feather-weight, then I will love to know what weight categories all these others belong to. Two, on seeking relevance, as at 1998, I was relevant enough to be a member of d 11-man Campaign Committee dat handled Baba Gbeluras Chairmanship election, I handled d Publicity along with Late Tanko Yankasai. I have been consistently active as to be d Secretary of Ijumu TJ YUSUF Campaign Organization as well as d Coordinator of Ijumu-Arin in 2011, I also left PDP in 2013 as d Secretary of Ijumu Arin PDP. What relevance could I probably be seeking? Three, on being a wrecker, I have worked with Mr Kolade Fagbemi, Chief Shola Adedoyin and in d last 7 years have been working with Hon Funsho Olumoko. except for bro Kolade, my loyalty to d other 2 has been at great costs to me and sacrifices by me. For Chief Adedoyin, I had to conceed d position of Council Leader to Hon Mubeen of Iyamoye, I also have to make d Powershift and Action Congress a priority on my budget as a Councillor for about 18 months out of 3years in support of his House of Reps aspiration in 2007. For Hon Funsho Olumoko, I had to sacrifice my job as d Estate Manager of NNPC Housing Estate, Area 11, Garki-Abuja, when I chose to support him for Chairmanship as against Chief Adedoyin who facilitated d job for me. Also in d last 5years, as Olumokos 2nd-in-Command in d Ogidi-Omo Movement, I gave my all, except my life, to ensure d actualization of his Chairmanship bid. Therefore, I am bold to say Ive ever been an asset to any leader Im privileged to work with, never a liability. The 3 of them are alive, on facebook, and can confirm all Ive said here. Even at Ijumu level, Ive been privileged to work under d leadership of Prince Olusola Akanmode, Chief Abiodun Ojo, and Hon Dino Melaiye, all of them will vouch for my commitment and consistency. Conclusively, I accept to be a feather-weight, but Ive got Jehovah-weight right behind me, divine and celestial, and he will crush all human super-weight come 2015.
