When the jubilation of different infrastructure development being facilitated and executed by the senator representing Kwara South Senatorial District, Arch Lola Ashiru is still lingering on our minds, drop of tears fell from my eyes when I read about what he’s about to do at Imoleboja shelter rock- a tourist attraction in kwara state and sited in Kwara South.
The beauty of the 3D image put an imagination in my head and I felt the project should be completed tomorrow. With all assurance, the project will be done as witnessed in Offa and Owu waterfall. These are his commitment to the development of the region.
Kwara South Senatorial District has witnessed unprecedented development under the leadership of Senator Oyelola Yisa Ashiru. He has brought numerous benefits to the region.
Senator Ashiru’s achievements in legislative processes, constituency projects, youth empowerment, and addressing national issues have been remarkable. His commitment to accountability and national development has earned him key leadership appointments, including the vice chairmanship of the Housing and Public Procurement Committees.
As a vocal advocate for youth issues in Nigeria, Senator Ashiru has drawn attention to the increasing cases of drug abuse among young people. His efforts have led to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) intensifying its fight against drug abuse.
Senator Ashiru’s initiatives have positively impacted his constituency, addressing water scarcity, security, unemployment, and rural road networks. He has installed solar street lights and provided empowerment programs across all seven local governments in his constituency. The Alajobi Multipurpose Corporative Loan Scheme has lifted hundreds of people out of poverty.
Senator Ashiru’s dedication to his people has earned him recognition as the Best Senator of the Year 2024. As his second term as senator comes to an end in 2027, he will undoubtedly continue to impact the lives of his people in Kwara South through infrastructure development, empowerment, and employment.Kwara South Senatorial District
