Re; APC Senator Commissioned Airtel Mast In Osun As Community Project


It has come to the notice of the Media Office of Senator Adelere Oriolowo of Osun-west of certain mischievous and deliberate misinformation about an event that involved him.

It is however pertinent we make necessary clarifications on this issue.

During the electioneering campaign, the only request of Ago-Owu Farm Settlement in Ayedaade Local Government of Osun State from Senator Adelere Oriolowo was that if he gets elected, all they wanted from him is a means of communication to the outside world. And as God would have it, he was elected and he set the ball rolling to fulfill his promise to the community by making necessary contacts and writing letters to different Telecommunications firms to make them see reasons why the community needs their facility's. In cognisance of this, is the eventual installation of Airtel communication mast in the community while other Telecommunications firms have given their assurances to the Senator of installing their facility's in the community as well.

We however find it absurd and mischievous, to see media sensationalism concerning this issue.

To get things in the right perspective, Senator Oriolowo was never the one that arranged for the commissioning ceremony of the Mast. The commissioning was totally an idea of the members of the community in celebrating what they have been yearning for, for a long time before succour came for them through the collaborative efforts of the Senator and the Telecommunication firm.

Equally, the banner being bandied around was never produced from the Senator desk or by his directives to any of his Aides, it was equally the projection of the community members in excitement of seeing their several years of prayers answered.

It is also worthy of note that the Senator was not physically present at the event but delegated some of his Aides and associates to the event since the community members were insistent of having him or any of his representative at the maiden event that broke a major jinx they've been praying and yearning for, for several decades.


Also at that, the banner that is causing public opprobrium from some certain elements, the word "facilitated by" was what was made use of and not "constructed by". By this, the word "facilitated by" connotes different meaning from "construted by", the latter which is affirmative in context usage.

A Senator that has several retinue of achievements to his record as a representative of his people at the Upper Chamber of the National Assembly will never gloat over such an event. Just last week, this same Senator is projecting to secure a Premier ICT Institute for the people of his constituency. It is this kind of project that the Senator might gloat over and not things of private business outfit.

He never claimed it as his constituency project, let that be noted in strong terms.

That being said, we want to inform the public that if there are no communication about events regarding the Senator from his recognised Media Channels or Official Aides, such communication should please not be given concise attention in relation to the activities or engagements of the Senator.

We enjoined our loving media friends and distinguished gentlemen of the Press to please avoid sensationalism in their reportage and also have a balance and fair reportage by making necessary enquiries from relevant quarters before going to the Press on any pressing issues.

We thank everyone sincerely, may God bless us all.

May Nigeria succeed.
