Sola Osolana |
To insensitive persons, Hon. Sola Ososlana is new in politics. But for the political minded persons within Agege and Orile Agege Local government Areas; He has been in Politics since 2008. He has contested severally, worked with pure mind and excellent will to bring relief to the residents.From Action Congress (AC) to Action Congress of Nigeria(ACN), ACN to All Progressives Congress (APC),but now People's Democratic Party (PDP), Osolana has seen it all.
Exploring the activities of politicians in Agege Federal Constituency, Sola Osolana is the only political figure that has chain of businesses around the Local Government area.And what Sola Osolana has achieved with his popular Foundation; Sola Osolana Foundation (SOF) is numerous to count.
The Non Governmental Organization. over the years; has empowered Youths; Women and the elderly.It has offered educational aids severally to Agege students and assisted brilliant minds across the seven wards in Agege Local Government.
He bestrides the Agege political terrain like colossus, and he has remained relevant and active in the scheme of things for years without relenting.
This is despite his many failed shots and attempts at the chairmanship seat of the local government.
At least on three occasions, he has signified interest in the different elective seats; only to be schemed out of the race toward the primaries.
Still he remains undaunted and unyielding in his steadfast support for the party right from the ACN days to the present merged party, APC.
What is however giving many a concern is why he has refused to be unbowed in his generous and financial backing for his party, even when he has no visible political stake.
As a deep pocket politician, he has shown on many occasions that he is not a do-or-die politician who will stop at nothing to achieve his aim of clinching political office.
The way and manner he provided financial muscle during 2017 Local Government Election, especially in his political base, Agege, are very symbolic of a committed party man.
With his financial support for the party at all times, he was merely compensated with a post of Supervisory Councillor for Works and Infrastructure. The Post he occupied before the “Kangaroo and doctored” accusations were leveled against him by the Legislative and Executive Arms for preparing to contest for the 2021 Agege Chairmanship Election.
Then, there were snippets that he was being assured of the council vice-chairmanship at the initial stage when he gallantly stepped down for the now incumbent chair before the election, only for another politician, Hon. Ogunji Abiodun Dare, in the LG to surface as the running mate of Egunjobi.
How the table turned against him in that regard is still a contentious in the LG area, but Osolana still kept his calm. Then from the winds, another unsubstantiated rumour sprang out that he might be given the Council Secretary slot, but this is also conjectural in a way, as politics being a game of surprises, did not favour him for the council secretaryship. That was why many in the constituency were wondering why he is still remaining in a party that he has toiled so much for, morally and financially, without any political gain or office to show for it. The ensuing political dispensation may prove his doubting Thomases wrong about Osolana’s continuous and rigid stay in the Agege politics nay APC.
Now in 2021, Hon. Sola Osolana is set to reclaim the Chairmanship seat with the help of Agege residents and Party members. Because APC failed to organise Primary elections across all 7 wards in Agege and chose to pick a candidate rather than through election.
Osolana is now the Chairmanship Candidate of PDP in Agege. He wants to serve Agege residents with undiluted love for sound Health Care System , well-equipped classrooms for students, genuine empowerment of Youths and Women, development of infrastructural facilities and uplift of Sustainable growths in the Local Government Area.
Among the candidates, Osolana is unique in Character, vision and personality.
As a politician and businessman, he is truthful, reliable and responsible in all ramifications.Voting for Hon. Sola Osolana is voting for greater Change in Agege.
Vote for PDP Chairmanship Candidate, vote for SOLA Osolana.
