Leadership is not built overnight; it is formed through experience, discipline, sacrifice, and service. Bakare’s journey from Osogbo to the international stage, and back to community-focused service in Osun, reveals a man prepared by life to contribute meaningfully to society. Born into the respected family of Mr. and Mrs. Fatai Bakare, he learned early that humility and perseverance are essential qualities for anyone who desires to make a difference. His connection to Ile Agbopa in Ede South Local Government has remained central to his identity. Even after schooling and working abroad, he has never forgotten his roots. This attachment to home is important because true leaders are those who remember where they come from and remain committed to lifting their people. For  Bakare, Ede is not just a place of origin; it is a community whose progress matters deeply to him. Educationally, BB has built a strong foundation. He attended St. Clare’s Catholic Nursery and Primary Sc...

Oyebamiji purported manifesto is an embarrassing, word-for-word reproduction of Gboyega Oyetola’s failed campaign document. This makes one thing very clear, the APC offers no new ideas, no fresh direction, and no credible alternative for the people of Osun State. A manifesto should be a contract with the people, innovative, clear, and rooted in today’s realities. What the APC delivered is the opposite. Just recycled promises the public already rejected, repackaged with no thought, no reflection, and no relevance. A serious opposition presents ideas, clarity, and a compelling agenda. What the APC has presented is a crowd without purpose and a manifesto without substance. ~TICC

● Says Opposition Bereft of Governance Ideas Osun state governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke has faulted the manifesto of the opposition, calling it “a warped plan incompatible with the needs and aspirations of Osun people”. Speaking shortly after attending the 2026 May Day rally at Osogbo, the governor cited each of the items on the APC manifesto as ill thought-out concoction hurriedly packaged together to deceive the people and mask the confusion within the camp of Bola Oyebamiji over governance agenda. Under economic revival, the Osun APC mentioned agro-processing zones in each senatorial district. But the Oyetola/Ambo government in their days gave less than 100m Naira per year to agriculture (Cash crops and Food Crops) between 2017 and 2022. Governor Adeleke has however invested heavily in cash crop expansion with tractorisation and seedling initiatives. Oyebamiji's fundamental thought is warped because you can not have processing value when you don’t have agricultural...
