OPINION: Prince Of The Senate; Nomenclature Of A True Representative — Itunu Adejayan

"What's obvious to the eyes cannot but be truthful to the hearing."

All men are born equal but not all assembly men act equally. The distinctive features that distinguished them are inherent in their uncompromisable capabilities and their unwavering commitment to exercise more of what's expected of them.

Little or no newbies in the Nigerian house of Senate would their performance in the last twenty-eight legislative months be compared to that of Senator Tolu Odebiyi, whom immediately after being elected has had his mind pondering for his constituent's welfarism. Small wonder he effortlessly earned the crown of the "Prince Of Senate."

It's no news that the Nigerian National Assembly under the leadership of Sen. Ahmed Lawan has been an action packed one. This is made possible by lots of positive energies exerted by active members of the 9th Senate, Senator Odebiyi being a major playmaker.

It's imperative to state that, the upper chamber after the 2019 general election was littered with newbies who are energetic, patriotic, committed, diligent and dutiful, so to speak. Leading the pack of these "ready to serve" wolf is the prince of them all, the Senator representing Ogun west district.

Senator Tolu Odebiyi within his twenty-eight National Assembly months has not only proven to be a representative par excellence but has inscribed in the heart of the citizens that 'giving back to the people is a core value practiced by democratic politicians.'

Altruistically, Humanity is the umbilical cord that binds together morals, values, traditions and cultures for the emanation of a prosperous society. Beyond obscurity, blind criticism and baseless argument; Senator Tolu Odebiyi's scorecard is awashed with political activities without the expungement of humanitarianism.

Overtly, the dividends of democracy which are meant to be enjoyed by constituents— superimpose crumbs or petty empowerment scheme laced with ulterior motives. It is in diligently delivering one's constitutional duty that the constituents are best served with meaty development.

Sequel to an article written by Kusoro Jeremiah, titled; "Senator Tolu Odebiyi, A Seasoned Legislator, it's beyond doubt to opine that distinguished Senator Tolu Odebiyi has transfigured from being the people's choice to being the people's messiah.

The biblical representation of Christ as the prince of peace resonates more on the person of Sen. Odebiyi who's dubbed as the prince of Senate.

With great power comes great responsibilities, having a well suited nomenclature engraved on a dutiful personality, Sen. Tolu Odebiyi is indisputably an emblem of good representation.

This is grass root politics in it's true form. Wish him the very best.
