"Never ever seek for gratefulness from mankind, you shall always see ungratefulness. Do what you must do as a solemn duty and that is what you must do!' ~Ernest Agyemang Yeboah

This quote exemplifies what this article would stand for after thoroughly digesting the benevolence and the magnanimity of former Governor Adegboyega Oyetola CON, who despite open hostility, lack of support during the electioneering periods (Governorship and State Assembly Elections of 2023) has delivered the biggest dividend of democracy to the people of Modakeke and Ife land in general.

The recent appointment of Alhaji Adewale Adeniyi Bashir an Assistant Comptroller General of Customs as the Acting Comptroller General of Customs is a prove that Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola is a leader with a large heart, he is a man blessed with uncommon spirit of sportsmanship and a pure lover of the Osun Progressives.

The well deserved appointment was received with some much joy even within the Customs service, Alhaji Bashir, no doubt is well qualified, adequately equipped and prepared for the job having served in various capacity , he was picked ahead of about 21 other well qualified senior cadres of the agency.

One would ask, why the choice of the Modakeke Born DCG? While attempting to answer this, everything would point to the magic wand and intervention of the Osun State Leader of the APC, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola who report has it that he used his heavy network to the presidency to lobby for the helmsman of the agency, Oyetola opened his heart to see the great benefits attached to the office and how the people of Osun would be the biggest beneficiary of the office, Oyetola saw an avenue to better the human capital development of the State despite not being at the helms of affairs of the State, Oyetola saw a bigger picture of Osun being positioned for great exploits in the administration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and he grabbed it.

This wouldn't be the first of Oyetola's goodwill to the people of Modakeke, it was him through the Osun Ministry of Works who reconstruction the long abandoned Famia Road in Modakeke, a road that had become a death trap for motorists and pedestrians alike, gave the town a seat in the State Executive Council, Board member of government agencies and made a youth the secretary to the Local Government (Area Office) plus several other good wills extended to the town.

It was therefore a surprise that Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola lost in Modakeke in the July 16th, 2022 Gubernatorial elections in the State, same way his party lost in the state house of assembly elections of 2023, this portrayed the people of the town in bad light and apparently should have caused a disaffection between Oyetola and the people of Modakeke, instead Oyetola has chosen to open a flood gate of opportunity for the town as there is no doubt that Modakeke and her sons and daughters would be the greatest beneficiaries of the appointment of Alhaji Adewale Adeniyi Bashir.

It is an open secret that we have the leader of the APC in Osun, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola to thank for this appointment, same way we must more importantly appreciate the President Bola Tinubu for this magnitude of this great appointment.
I wholeheartedly congratulate Alhaji Adewale Adeniyi Bashir on his well deserved appointment, We look forward to witnessing a remarkable transformations in The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) during your tenure.

Hon Kayode Sowade an ardent follower of Oyetola and by extension, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and a lover of his town Modakeke, and Ife in general wrote.
