An All Progressives Congress, APC chieftain, in Oyo State, Mr Hammed Folorunso Tolulope, has revealed that the need to solve some problems in his domain and Oyo State is his source of motivation for aspiring to represent Ibadan South East constituency 2 position in the Oyo State House of Assembly, in 2023.
Hammed who is a Ladoke Akintola University of Technology graduate said his party holds the magic wand to change the fortune of the people, adding that he does not have to leave the party because the party lost the 2019 governorship election.
Speaking on his ambition, the APC chieftain who is popularity known as Mido said:
“I have always been a member of the APC and I cannot say because our party lost the last election, I should leave. We know why we lost the election. And we are almost done recoiling ourselves.
“Our area is one of the places where insecurity is endemic. This, I can say, has been as a result of the many years of neglect, unemployment and other social vices. Being a lawmaker will afford me the opportunity of liaising with relevant agencies to look for ways to resolve these crises. Nobody is happy with what is happening. One of the ways is to deploy amicable resolution mechanisms.
“Apart from this, I have the intention of empowering women, youths and widows. Our area has never been as bad as this. There are certain methods we will use apart from governmental agencies, my connection over the years would also be deployed. I have friends who can support me.
“The area needs more capable hands to develop. I can say I am comfortable and I stay in my comfort zone. But that is not it. I am just going back home to rescue my people. Hold me by my words,” he said.
Speaking during the program Ambassador Olubiyo Festus said having the youth coming out to stage their interest in politics is a good one and he’s ready to support Mido with everything to achieve his ambition.
