Yes, Prince Dapo Abiodun, the very hardworking governor of Ogun State makes history every hour, to which he industriously adds page after page, volume after volume, as if nature were holding up a monument to his exploits.
Effortlessly, Governor Abiodun personifies the kernel of Vince Lombardi’s famous quote: “Winning is not a sometime thing; it’s an all the time thing. You don’t win once in a while; you don’t do things right once in a while; you do them right all of the time. Winning is a habit.”
Yes, the Supreme Court has affirmed the election of Governor Adedapo Abiodun of Ogun State.
A five-member panel of the court, in a unanimous judgment a moment ago, dismissed the appeal by Oladipupo Adebutu, who was the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the last governorship election in Ogun State.
Justice Tijjani Abubakar, who read the lead judgment, held that Adebutu and his party failed to prove their case.
Justice Abubakar resolved all the issues raised for determination against the appellants and held that the appeal was without merit.
Even sceptics and naysayers now know and accept that beneath the urbane, smouldering good looks of Governor Dapo Abiodun lies a profound knowledge of the underpinnings for a prosperous state. Add to this is a steely, self-assured commitment to harmonise everything required to build and bequeath a Greater Ogun State for today’s generation and posterity.
Yes, Governor Abiodun’s devotion to his job is an unusual form of virtue. He is the calm that succeeds the storm of Ogun’s season of anomie. He is a great leader, serving with spunk and panache. The one, on whose watch, Ogun attains redemption and undiminished greening.
Since he assumed leadership of the state, he has committed himself actively to the task of salvaging what’s left of Ogun through nurturant governance.
In person, in interviews, and on the screen, inhabiting the role by which he’s become Ogun’s most celebrated governor, Abiodun espouses an uncanny politic. The power and grace of his performance seem to emanate from something he’s made contact with, deep within, intensely private and specific to his experience, but also mysteriously universal to the best of mankind
