AOA.

It all began with a simple fire. A fire fueled by a deep passion for my city, Ibadan. Ibadan is the biggest city in west Africa, and one of the most populated cities in Africa. Ibadan has a unique history in Africa. A kind formed born on our ancestral red dust and blood. Being a city with such an ancient past, and a home of fearless ancestors and defenders of integrity. Its imbedded in our blood to not only fight for a better yet seen, but to protect the future of possibilities. It is time for our land to secure its rightful place once again, just like it is for our nation to do the same on the global stage. Fighting for my country, and rebuilding my city brick by brick is a responsibility that I believe every Nigerians must be taught and embody, in order to witness the successes of our great nation Nigeria.

As an individual who is aware of the contributions made by this city and by this nation, It is important that I bring both the indigenous and the non-indigenous peoples of this land together. Whether young or old, rich or poor. It is time to embark on a mission of togetherness and put our nation once again on the forefront, just like our founding fathers and mothers did. As an entrepreneur and a business owner, my strength comes from a personal appreciation for this city and for this country. To recognize the details presented to me and my team, and use them in facilitating revolutionary changes worthy of celebrating. This is my declaration of intent for the city of my origin and for all peoples of Nigeria. My approach is rooted in the quality of our integrity. Ensuring that everything we do reflects our commitment to profess, protect, and to progress as a community, and as a nation.

It is time to stop waiting around for the government to do it all. It is our land, it is our people. If we don't fight for us, who will? The nation we desire is achievable, and I believe that we can get the work done one at a time. I believe in the wonderful people of this nation. Our time to act is now. Are you ready to do your part?
