Stakeholders commend Ewekoro LG Chairman as community practitioners pledge support for landmark project

The Ewekoro Zonal Community Development Committee (CDC) on Thursday, May 21, 2026, officially performed the groundbreaking ceremony for its proposed Ultramodern Secretariat at the back of the Wasimi Main Market, Ogun State, in a historic event attended by government officials, community leaders, development practitioners, and stakeholders from across the zone.

The ceremony was held under the leadership of the Chief Servant of Ewekoro Zonal CDC, Success Beloved Ogooluwa, popularly known as Plasm 24, while the Executive Chairman of Ewekoro Local Government, Sikiru Adisa Adesina, was ably represented by the Supervisor for Works, Babalola Babatunde, alongside the Supervisor for Women Affairs, Anike Adeniji.

Delivering his goodwill message, Oluwaseun Oke, the State Council Public Relations Officer, applauded the current leadership of the Ewekoro Zonal CDC for initiating what he described as a laudable and visionary project. He called on all community development practitioners and stakeholders within the zone to support the successful completion of the secretariat project.

Also speaking, former Director of Community and Social Development, Ewekoro Local Government, Folasade Olakanmi, expressed joy over the official approval and commencement of the project. She especially appreciated the Executive Chairman of Ewekoro Local Government, Hon. Sikiru Adisa Adesina, whom she described as the “Omoluabi of Ewekoro,” for standing firmly behind the allocation of the land despite several challenges.

According to her, the Local Government Chairman remained committed to ensuring that the allocated land was preserved and used strictly for the benefit of community development practitioners within the Ewekoro Zonal CDC. She prayed for continued success for the Chairman and the successful completion of the secretariat project.

In her remarks, the new Director of Community and Social Development, Ewekoro Local Government, Moyinoluwa Adeuyi, commended the Chief Servant and executives of the Zonal CDC for their commitment and contributions toward grassroots development. She assured stakeholders of her readiness to support the project to a successful completion.

The Chairman of the Building Committee, Jemilat Abeni Ogundare, appreciated government officials, State, Senatorial, Zonal, Area CDCs, and various CDAs for their continuous support toward the project. She also appealed to all Areas yet to fulfill their financial commitments to do so promptly to avoid abandonment of the project.

The symbolic groundbreaking ceremony featured the laying of blocks by representatives of key stakeholders. Hon. Babatunde, representing the Local Government Chairman, laid the first block with prayers for success. In contrast, the Chief Servant, Prophet Dr. Success Beloved Ogooluwa, former Director, Chief Mrs. Olakanmi, Comrade Oke, and the Director of Community and Social Development, Mrs. Moyinoluwa Adeuyi, also laid blocks to signify collective ownership and support for the project.

The event attracted several dignitaries and notable community practitioners, including Olayinka Decapus, the Iyaloja of Wasimi, Salau Omolara, Elizabeth Akindele, Shittu, and Balogun, among others.

In his closing remarks, Comrade Oluwaseun Oke expressed concern over the outstanding debts owed by some Areas under Ewekoro Zonal CDC to the State Council. He urged affected Areas to settle their obligations promptly before their names are publicly listed as debtors.

The event was concluded with a closing prayer offered by David Ogunremi, bringing an end to what participants described as a landmark and historic gathering for community development in Ewekoro Local Government Area.

"When the Police do anything wrong, society is always quick to speak out and condemn such actions publicly. Therefore, it is equally important that we use the same energy, sincerity, and public platform to appreciate and commend the Police whenever they carry out their duties professionally and effectively."

The leadership and members of the Isokan Community Development Association, Obada Oko wish to specially appreciate the Nigeria Police Force, particularly the Divisional Police Officer of Obada Oko Division, CSP Alao Abdulazeez, for his swift, professional, and commendable response to a criminal incident that occurred within ISOKAN CDA, Ewekoro Local Government Area of Ogun State.

On Tuesday, 12th May 2026, at approximately 2:34 p.m., a suspect identified as Yemi Oladipupo was caught in the act of vandalizing a residential building belonging to Mrs Adewunmi Temitope within the Isokan community. The suspect reportedly cut off electrical cables (worth #800k+) within the house, damaged the air conditioning system, and destroyed other valuable properties.

Through the collective effort and vigilance of community members, the suspect was apprehended and subsequently confessed to the crime.

Upon receiving the case, the Divisional Police Officer, CSP Alao Abdulazeez, handled the matter promptly and professionally. After preliminary interrogation, he assigned the investigation and prosecution process to Woman Inspector Olasile Aina, who carried out her responsibilities diligently, professionally, and without bias.

The case was properly investigated and charged in court accordingly. During the court proceedings, the suspect admitted and confessed to the offences against him and was consequently sentenced to eighteen (18) calendar months imprisonment on the two charges filed against him.

We sincerely appreciate CSP Alao Abdulazeez, W/Inspector Olasile Aina and her team, as well as all officers and professionals who continue to put in their best efforts daily to protect lives, properties, and the interests of Nigerian citizens.

Your dedication to justice, professionalism, and public safety is highly commendable and deserves recognition.

Thank you for your service to humanity and society.

The time is getting closer again! Hmmmmm! Where is the best among the rest?

Don't just pick interest in any post, but be prepared to handle that office with all commitment

Good day to u all.... I want to state here with all sense of humility and sincerity that there must be miss up somewhere because I have privilege of working closely with Odunlade for more than six years and I can say here categorically that Odun is not part of an actor that will collect money for a production and end up to disappoint the producer.
He really understand the norms and ethic of his chosen profession (Filmmaking), but on this note I want to beg all memebers of this forum to take this matter easy because we are only reacting on one side story... We should understand that journalism is all about balancing.
Sir/ma, I want to make it clear here that I'm only saying all what I know about this great actor.
He is one actor that respect the feeling of everyone around him, he don't miss pleasure with his job and many professional coallgues can testify to this.
His humility, dedication and submissiveness is second to none.
And I knows that this young, talented and highly focus actor is a friend of media practioners and he can never take any journalist for granted, if u have privilege of holding his mobile phone for just 20 minutes u will understand him even more better.
Imagine 200 missed calls withing 30minutes.... It is our prayers and supports that keep him going and he always appreciate this whenever he have opportunity to address public.
He is a listening type and whatever u have as a suggestion or words of advise should be direct to him @odunladeomoadekola on Instagram...
God bless Federal Republic of Nigeria
God bless Nairaland
God bless u and i
One love
