••• Says Constituents Deserves Better
Oyabambi Berates Ineffective Representation in Ifelodun/Offa/Oyun, Calls for Leadership That Listens and Delivers
A stalwart of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and advocate for good governance, Otunba Adetunji Oyabambi (OAO), has expressed dissatisfaction with what he described as the poor state of representation in the Ifelodun, Offa, and Oyun Federal Constituency, saying the people deserve leadership that listens, acts, and delivers — not silence and detachment.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, Oyabambi lamented that the constituency has suffered from a lack of effective representation, engagement, and visible development initiatives.
According to him, the people who entrusted Hon. Tijani Ismail, the current representative, with their mandate deserve empathy, courage, and proactive leadership that advances their welfare and development.
“The people who entrusted Hon. Tijani Ismail with their mandate deserve empathy, courage, and proactive leadership, not silence and detachment,” he said. “Leadership is a sacred responsibility, and when elected officials fail to connect with the people and advance their welfare, they fall short of the trust placed in them.”
Oyabambi further decried the absence of meaningful constituency projects or interventions, adding that the growing sense of neglect among residents underscores the urgent need for responsive and people-oriented leadership.
“Our constituency deserves better. We cannot point to significant interventions, constituency projects, or developmental efforts facilitated through our current representation,” he said.
He called on constituents to hold their elected officials accountable and demand effective representation, stressing that democracy thrives when leaders are answerable to the people.
“Enough of ineffective representation. The time has come for leadership that truly serves the people and restores confidence in our democracy,” he added.
