As we approach the 2027 political crossroads, the Ile-Oluji/Oke-igbo/Odigbo Federal Constituency stands at a pivotal moment in its political history.
For too long, our representation has been a revolving door of promises, yet the dividends of democracy remain unevenly distributed across the geographical and communal lines that define us
While we celebrate our unity as a constituency, we must be courageous enough to address the shadows of our democratic journey since 1999. In the grand political trajectory of Ile-Oluji/Oke-igbo/Odigbo, one salient question has been curiously and consistently overlooked.
Since the return to democratic rule nearly three decades ago, a glaring question haunts the political landscape: Why has Araromi Obu been perpetually sidelined from the seat of federal representation?
Is there a dearth of men of high intellect in Araromi Obu? The answer is a resounding NO. Araromi Obu has produced captains of industry, professors of ivory towers, boardroom giants, and others who are eminently distinguished in their professions.
Yet, a silent communal sentiment has acted as an invisible barrier, keeping this vibrant part of our constituency on the fringes of federal legislative leadership. To continue this pattern is to suggest that excellence is localized, or that some voices are more “federal” than others.
Justice delayed is progress denied. The time has come to bridge this gap, not out of mere sentiment, but because Araromi Obu is offering one of its finest—a man whose intellect and professional standing command respect in any boardroom or legislative chamber in the country.
It is time to transition from the politics of convenience that held us back and stunted human and capital development to the politics of competence and communal justice.
That transition has a name; Ayo-Gbenga Olumoyegun, FCA.
As we might know, governance at its core, is the management of resources. In an era where the Nigerian economy demands precision, transparency, and fiscal discipline, the House of Representatives requires more than just a “politician”—it requires a master of systems.
Ayo-Gbenga Olumoyegun represents a Gold Standard in Professional Excellence in this area. As a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN), Ayo-Gbenga Olumoyegun brings a “Gold Standard” pedigree to the table.
His career is a testament to absolute Integrity, through which he navigated the complex world of finance with an unblemished record, and to strategic oversight, through which national budgets were dissected.
These qualities, he will bring on board to ensure that the interests of our constituency are not just captured on paper, but delivered in reality.
Beyond numbers, Ayo-Gbenga’s career has been defined by a commitment to lifting others, understanding that the greatest asset of our federal constituency is not its land, but its people. His life is a testament to the legacy of service to humanity.
Ayo-Gbenga Olumoyegun does not just understand governance; he breathes it. His vision for the House of Representatives is built on three pillars:
1. Economic Empowerment: Leveraging his financial expertise to facilitate grants and micro-investment opportunities for our local entrepreneurs and farmers.
2. Legislative Advocacy: Proposing bills that address the specific infrastructural deficits within the Ile-Oluji/Oke-igbo/Odigbo federal constituency.
3. Inclusive Representation: Ensuring that no town or village—from the smallest hamlet to the largest hub—feels like a “second-class” member of this constituency.
Finally, let it be unequivocally stated that Ayo-Gbenga Olumoyegun, FCA, will not just be the representative of Araromi Obu; he will represent the entire Odigbo/Okeigbo/Ile-Oluji Federal Constituency. He represents the perfect blend of professional sophistication and local empathy.
In 2027, we have an opportunity to correct the imbalances of the past while securing a prosperous future.
Let us choose the man who brings the calculator of an accountant, the heart of service to the community, and humanity.
For Equity. For Excellence. For Olumoyegun.
