Don’t relent and I believe subsequently you will not only do this community proud again but the entire nation.

Continuing, the federal parliamentarian said, ”I see education as a very vital tool that is used in the contemporary world to succeed. It is important because it is used to mitigate most of the challenges faced in life. The knowledge that is attained through education helps open doors to a lot of opportunities for better prospects in career growth. You have started well and God will see you through in your academic pursuits.”

It was a proud moment for Hon Akinlaja to count his visible achievements and giant strides which have positive socio-economic impacts in the lives of the constituents which cut across Wards and Units in both Ondo East and West Local Governments Areas. There was a loud cheer from the crowd when the youths, senior citizens and the women expressed satisfaction on Hon. Akinlaja’s achievements.

The local talking drummers thrilled the crowd beyond imagination with their unique prowess. Also, the weather was so pleasant and friendly as the mother nature failed to drop any water from heaven neither was the sun unbearable.

The crowd however applauded the honourable member for helping them previously in securing 300KVA transformer, though made fresh appeal for another transformer, they disclosed that the older transformer is out of use as a result of ‘overloading’.

They equally complained bitterly that they are now in darkness for more than three months and admonished Hon Akinlaja to use his federal strength and connection to facilitate rural electrification to the area and calling for quick intervention to restore power so that their businesses which depend on power supply will not collapse permanently. The lawmaker in his response said he wont promise what he can not do but their demands will be looked into and by God’s grace the outcome would be positive.
