Leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ibadan South West local government area of Oyo state have lauded the aspiration of Kolapo Kola-Daisi, describing it as “prestigious and worthy of total support”.
Kolapo-Kola-Daisi, one of the sons of foremost industrialist and the Bashorun of Ibadan land, Chief Kola-Daisi, had earlier declared his intention to contest the Oyo South senatorial seat in the 2023 general elections.
Speaking recently during a courtesy visit of the aspirant to their midst, one of the leaders in the local government , Mr. Sunday Babalola, reiterated the belief of the group by hailing the prestigious antecedents of the aspirant and his impressive CV as a clear edge he’s got in the senatorial race.
“Listening to you today, all you’ve achieved for yourself and this show of readiness to apply your experience for the good of your people, I can gladly and boldly say you have lived up to the illustrious nature of the Kola-Daisi name”, Babalola said.
He continued, “I am sure your family is proud of you, and by the grace of God, Oyo South, and by extension, the whole of Oyo state will be proud of you too. In as much as there’s still work to do to, you have shown seriousness to serve, and that makes your aspiration one that is worthy of total support”.
Also commenting, another leader in the local government, Mrs. Mabel Williams, who highlighted Kola-Daisi’s experience, noted that both the party and the state will benefit greatly from the readiness of such “young and accomplished professional” joining politics to serve.
The Ibadan South-West leaders took turns to give prayers and offer a litany of advice to the aspirant.
