Fadahunsi made this promise while addressing members of the NUJ Correspondents’ Chapel, in Osogbo, the Osun State capital on Monday to herald the official commencement of his 2019 Senatorial ambition.
The PDP Senatorial Candidate, who expressed optimism that he would beat his opponent from the district hand down said he won in 2015 but he was cheated and his victory was not declared like that of business mogul, Late MKO Abiola.
The former Assistance Comptroller General, Nigeria Customs Service stated that his decision to contest for the senatorial seat at the upper chamber in the coming year after he was being allegedly cheated in the last general election was borne out of his determination to fight for the betterment of the people of his constituency.
His words, “today is a great day as I stand before you to address certain issues as regards my vision to take a bold step for the liberation and emancipation of Osun East Senatorial District. It has been said that evil continues to pervade our land except people of voice and goodwill decide to take a bold step in order to apart.”
“Am sure you are aware that this is not my first attempt at giving an effective representation to my people. In 2015, you all know my loving people voted end masse for me to be their voice at the national assembly but the agents of deprive the people of the right dividends of representation and also hunting the evil doers till date in the political arena of our state”
Promising people of his constituency of quality representation, Fadahunsi stated that he was fully prepared to use the instrument of legislation to better the lots of the people of the district.
Fadahunsi lamented what he called the unfortunate poor representation that has been the lots of the Osun East senatorial district in about four years now.
This was just as he promised responsible representation of the people of the senatorial district when elected.
“I promise my people that responsible representation that will guarantee an abundance of life and prosperity. I will encourage human development, I will encourage agriculture and creation of employment opportunities for the youths of my district, scholarships would be given to the students.
“I would probably continue my service to humanity privately if not for the fact that the same lacuna I have always seen which prompted my venturing into politics to serve as not been filled despite the years of representation that those who hijacked the mandate of the people have spent serving themselves and the not the people they claim to be serving.”
To this end, I present myself to you formally as a servant of the people aspiring to serve the good people of Osun east senatorial district at the national assembly.
