2027: Ekiti NDC reps candidate pledges dividends of democracy

Apostle Ayodele David-Adesua, a candidate for the Nigeria Democratic Congress in the Ekiti North 1 Federal Constituency, has declared his intention to restore development to the Ikole and Oye local government areas. He asserts that inadequate representation in the National Assembly has been the primary obstacle to the region's progress, prompting his decision to contest under the NDC's ideology of 'service to the people'.

“

For too long, our fathers, our mothers, our youth, and our elderly in Ikole and Oye have waited for the true dividends of democracy that were promised to us.

David-Adesua highlighted the long-standing neglect faced by the constituency, stating, "For too long, our fathers, our mothers, our youth, and our elderly in Ikole and Oye have waited for the true dividends of democracy that were promised to us." He pointed to unfinished roads, job scarcity, and the poor state of schools and hospitals as evidence of this neglect, emphasizing that the constituency has not been properly represented.

“

This is not another politician seeking self-service. This is a servant coming with a burden – a burden to see development return to our communities, a burden to see prosperity for our society, a burden to lift our youth, to empower our women, and to protect the well-being of our elderly who built this land with their sweat.

"This is not another politician seeking self-service. This is a servant coming with a burden – a burden to see development return to our communities, a burden to see prosperity for our society, a burden to lift our youth, to empower our women, and to protect the well-being of our elderly who built this land with their sweat," David-Adesua stated. He positioned himself as a capable and reliable individual ready to deliver the dividends of democracy, soliciting support from voters for the progress of Oye and Ikole.

“

I chose NDC not because of power, but because of its sacred ideology – service to the people. This is a party that believes government must work for the common man.

He further clarified his motivation for choosing the NDC, stating, "I chose NDC not because of power, but because of its sacred ideology – service to the people. This is a party that believes government must work for the common man." David-Adesua appealed to those who know him, referencing his past actions as evidence of his genuine desire to serve humanity and glorify God, rather than seeking titles or personal gain.

“

To those who know me, to those who have walked with me, to those who have seen my antecedents – you can attest to one thing: I have always loved to serve. Not for titles. Not for self. But for the benefit of mankind and for the glory of God
