THE SECOND COMING OF THE MAN FROM' OKLA-HOMA.

THE SECOND COMING OF THE MAN FROM' OKLA-HOMA.   ( Series 2) By Kehinde Dare. Anipr, Mibc.
Okla is a man who is highly gifted in Corporate Governance, a hard-nosed debator, a man with  pragmatic approach to issues and challenges rather than Political ideology, of course, he favours and accepts the facts of practicality and literal truth.
He is a sermoniser who preaches the gospel of practical politics, "Do what you say", a philosophy of pragmatism and realism as espoused by Socrates and Pluto.
Perhaps, Okla might be a  scholar in the  Socratic school of  political philosophy, the  path he is still charting  hitherto.
He is not a rookie in the corridor of power, he was a special Adviser to former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode on food Security, the position he used in addressing  food challenges and scarcity. We still remember the issue of Lake rice, a joint  venture between Lagos and Kebbi State where  he played a larger-than- life role.
As a legislator representing Kosofe Constituency 1,  Okla  is a gift  and a God sent.
The Constituency would not have elected a more eccletic representative than him. He took up their welfare like a personal issue.
The cerebral Chairman of Education committee in the house is always in the forefront of getting the best for his proteges where ever he can spread his influence
It was on the records that he gave scholarship for selected students with brilliant requisites in kosofe. 
On his health programme, Okla gave free health scheme to his people recently, and of late got some young people employed in the teaching amongst various  welfare packages he sponsored.
Okla facilitated the presence of the state government in Kosofe through Construction of Opebi- ojota link road, and other constructions recently.
One thing that cannot be doubted is his sterling   performances which automatically gives him unfettered access back to Alausa come 2023.

    Corregendum:
    He gave Scholarship 'for’ selected students. The word should have been 'to' selected students. The error is not intentional

    Thanks

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE  WHY I CHOSE TO UNIFY EXCHANGE RATE, REFUSED TO PARTAKE IN ARBITRAGE – TINUBU  President Bola Ahmed Tinubu Thursday in Lagos said he could have chosen to maintain the hitherto multiple foreign exchange systems and benefit from it, but instead opted to unify the official and parallel market rates to save the country from financial hemorrhage.   Speaking at a civic reception organised in his honour by the Lagos State Government at the Lagos House, Marina, President Tinubu said he took the decision in the nation’s best interest just like he did with fuel subsidy removal.   "I could afford to share the benefit by participating in the arbitrage, but God forbid! That's not why you voted for me," he said.   The President said it was imperative to take those decisive actions in the early days of his administration.  "We need to take the steps to stop the bleeding of our finances through speedy action on fuel subsidy. We have no choice,&q
