A community leader in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, Ismaila Odejinmi has commended the House of Representatives candidate for Abeokuta South Federal Constituency, on the platform of Peoples' Democratic Party, (PDP), Toyin Amuzu on his efforts geared towards making life easy for his people.

Odejinmi, who described Amuzu as a true son of the soil, said his services and commitment to the development of Egbaland would not be forgotten easily. 

Odejinmi spoke during the handing over of two motorized borehole projects donated by Amuzu to Ijemo and Ijeun-Titun communities in Abeokuta South local government areas of the State. 

The community leader, who commended the PDP's House of Representatives hopeful for his selflessness and determination to improve the lives of the people and alleviate their sufferings said, "there is no doubt that he would perform excellently well if given the opportunity to serve the people at the green chamber".

According to him, "Amuzu has proven himself to be a true son of the soil, who wants the good of his people. If I'm not mistaken, this is the twentieth borehole project. Water, they say is life, and Amuzu has again brought succour. I have seen solar lights in different communities with his inscription on them. I have heard of various empowerment programme, health and education support from Amuzu". 

"I am not surprised, he is a true descendant of the  Lashoju family, who are well known as warlords in Egba history. Infact, I am highly impressed and this is a clear testimonial that he would do more". 

In his remark, Amuzu, who decried the level of infrastructural deficit in Abeokuta South Federal Constituency, assured the residents to facilitate more projects to the area when elected to represent the constituency. 

He said, he would facilitate infrastructural projects and services, most especially in the areas of health, social security, education, agriculture, youth development, security and empowerment among others.  

He added that, he would facilitie legislation that would impact directly on the lives of the people, saying "the tour of polling units across Abeokuta South Federal Constituency has afforded him the opportunity to interact freely with the people who gave him first hand information on their plights and needs".
