The Honourable Tunji Akinosi, the Ogun federal lawmaker representing Ado Odo/Ota Federal Constituency, had a reason to celebrate a few days ago. Hon. Akinosi, who is the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Alternative Education, added another year in fine style. For Hon. Akinosi, it was a moment to step back in history and reflect on God’s mercies over the last few decades. A man of strong faith, Hon. Akinosi, known for his business-like approach to issues, took time out of his busy engagements to celebrate his big day. The lawmaker, who is married to a top banker, was treated to a classic birthday dinner by his wife. As expected, he was surrounded by loved ones, including his wife and a few close friends and associates.
Described as a servant leader, Hon. Akinosi is one of the few professionals in politics. Since his electoral triumph in the last National Assembly election, Hon. Akinosi has covered himself in glory with commendable representation. Apart from lobbying to facilitate infrastructural projects in his constituency, the energetic politician has also embarked on a range of empowerment initiatives to improve the socioeconomic status of his constituents. Recently, the federal lawmaker doled out various items, including bags of rice and cash, to market men and women, youth associations, community development associations, NGOs, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), the League of Imams, Baales, and traditional authorities across the length and breadth of his constituency as part of his annual end-of-year philanthropic initiative.
Hon. Akinosi, who is serving his first term as a member of the House of Representatives, has demonstrated a commendable passion for service to humanity. He is a man in a hurry to impress his constituents. To say that he has hit the ground running is simply stating the obvious. Hon. Akinosi is proving to be a breath of fresh air in terms of effective representation and integrity in public service. His birthday was another opportunity to celebrate a man whose passion for excellence in the political landscape is unmatched.
