BAF – A Statesman That’s Looking Beyond Elections ”
“A politician thinks of the next elections, a statesman thinks of the next generation.
J F Clarke.
At this momentous time when politicians are running helter-skelter outdoing one another in their bids to win the next elections, BAF, a statesman goes a step farther- he is much more concerned with building potentials.
As an American Pastor, Harry Emerson posits,”Democracy is based upon the conviction there are extraordinary possibilities in ordinary people “That’s how Senator Abdulfatai Omotayo Buhari keeps strengthening our nascent democracy to take care of the people to be in a position to give their best to the society that moulds them in the nearest future.
At a comprehensive career services facilitated to widen the horizon of the people of Oyo North Senatorial District at Oja Agbe, Iseyin and going by what the beneficiaries went home with, they need no crystal ball to see, that it will surely set them on the right footing to generate maximum output in their lifetime .
The two weeks training program by the National information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) at the instance of the people’s Senator for 100 beneficiaries is a true mark of a Senator working for the progress of his people.
Needless to say that information Technology grows the economy and business sector as it brings in its wake an efficient communication, It also saves time, enhance creativity and smoothen career paths.
The good thing about this, is its timeous arrangement. Coming at a period unemployment is the sing- song of many youths, here is an opportunity for the people of Oke Ogun to be empowered and go a notch higher. It comes at a time between 7th to 18 Nov 2022 , when others attentions are fixated on the 2023 elections!
Therefore, as I rejoice with all the beneficiaries, let me use this medium to remind them the popular maxim that ‘to whom much is given, much is expected ” . The only thing Senator BAF expects from the beneficiaries is to translate the knowledge provided by the training to better their own future.
Taking a cursory look at the Developmental strides taken by Senator Fatai Buhari and capacity building done thus far to improve the lots of the people in Oyo North Senatorial district, one is tempted to conclude that, the future holds more opportunities for the Senator who puts his people first in all considerations.
Reward for hardwork, they say , is more work. In order to enjoy more benefits from this man, it is apposite that we must all queue up to joyfully cast our votes for him and return him to Senate in 2023. No man can claim “Oke Ogun lokan” more than this..
More power to your elbows, Senator BAF, the true “Chief Servant” .
