The decision of Hon. Saheed Abimbola Oladimeji (OWONIFAARI) to step forward as a candidate for the chairmanship of Ibadan South-East Local Government is both timely and strategic. It reflects a deep sense of responsibility, a clear understanding of grassroots realities, and a strong commitment to advancing the collective interests of the people.

By declaring his intention, Hon. Oladimeji has set in motion a process that places emphasis on service, unity, and progress. His vision is centered on building a local government that works for all, where policies are people driven, leadership is accessible, and development is both practical and sustainable.
