IKOLE LG DESERVES THE SENATE: A CALL FOR EQUITY IN EKITI NORTH
Introduction
The strength of any political system lies in its commitment to fairness, inclusiveness, and rotational justice. In Ekiti North Senatorial District, these principles have shaped leadership distribution across Moba, Ido/Osi, Ilejemeje, and Oye Local Governments. Yet, a critical imbalance persists.
Ikole Local Government, despite its size, strength, and political relevance, has not produced a Senator.
This raises a pressing concern: Can there be true equity without Ikole?
The Political Imbalance
For years, senatorial representation has rotated among key local governments within Ekiti North. This practice has fostered inclusion and shared ownership of leadership.
However, Ikole remains excluded
Ikole is:
– A major political bloc within the district
– A consistent contributor to electoral success
– A central force in Ekiti North’s political structure
Yet, it has not been given the opportunity to lead at the Senate level.
This is not just an omission—it is a clear imbalance.
Why Equity Must Prevail
Sustainable politics is built on fairness, not dominance.
Excluding a major stakeholder like Ikole weakens trust, disrupts unity, and contradicts the principle of rotational leadership.
For Ekiti North to move forward as one, justice must be done.
The Case for Ikole
The demand is simple and justified:
What has been done for Moba, Ido/Osi, Ilejemeje, and Oye must now be done for Ikole.
Anything short of this is inequity.
Leadership with Capacity: Engr. Dipo Bamisaye (EDB)
Beyond fairness, leadership must also be credible.
Engr. Dipo Bamisaye (EDB) stands as:
– A professional with proven competence
– A grassroots leader with strong acceptance
– A unifier with a clear vision for Ekiti North
He represents both justice for Ikole & progress for the entire district.
*Conclusion*
This is a defining moment.
Ikole has waited.
Ikole has contributed.
Ikole now deserves to lead.
The time to correct this imbalance is now.
Support Equity. Support Inclusion. Support Progress.
Support Engr. Dipo Bamisaye (EDB).
