Comr. Tomiwa Matthews, Highlights Concerns Over Appointments and Representation in Odigbo Local Government in Press Statement.


In a recent press briefing, Tomiwa, the Majority Leader of the Southwest Youth Parliament representing the great youths of Ondo South district who is also an Indegene of Odigbo LG, expressed deep concerns regarding the political influence and appointments within Ondo State, especially, Odigbo Local Government Area. 

Tomiwa's statement sheds light on the alleged involvement of Mrs. Betty Akeredolu in influencing appointments and the purported imposition of her sister, Ms. Eucharia Nwamarah, as a pioneer for the newly proposed Odigbo LCDA. It accentuates the importance of ensuring equitable representation of indigenous residents and voices concerns about the potential ramifications of perceived favoritism.

The press release delivers a compelling message, urging Mrs. Betty Akeredolu to prioritize her husband's well-being as he's currently recovering and to refrain from interfering in sensitive matters within the state. Comr. Tomiwa empathizes with the First Lady while advocating for a separation of personal and political interests.


Furthermore, Matthews' statement underscores the significance of unity and understanding among the diverse people of Ondo State. It acknowledges the power of collective prayers and well-wishes for Governor Akeredolu's recovery, irrespective of personal beliefs. The statement hopes that these sentiments contribute to a positive and healing atmosphere.

The statement also explicitly acknowledges the presence of capable individuals who are natives of Odigbo LGA and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC). These individuals, who are true "Sons of the Soil," possess the competence and dedication to excel in leadership roles, potentially surpassing expectations. Matthews asserts his confidence in the local talent that can contribute significantly to the development of the region.

"Additionally, Comr. Tomiwa Matthews' statement highlights the potential challenges that could arise from perceived interference in the appointment process, particularly the imposition of the party candidate for Odigbo ahead of the scheduled LGA/LCDA appointment. It is emphasized that such actions have the potential of disrupting unity within the community and may lead to unintended negative consequences. The statement urges all parties involved to prioritize dialogue, collaboration, and inclusivity in order to achieve a harmonious and prosperous future for Odigbo Local Government."

In conclusion, the comrade addresses the concerns of the youths of Odigbo Local Government, reassuring them that the appointment process will be conducted with fairness and consideration of the qualified candidates from the local community who is an indegene of Odigbo Local Government.

Comr. Tomiwa Matthews and the Southwest Youth Parliament remain committed to promoting transparency, accountability, and inclusivity in governance for the betterment of all residents in the state.
