Agege Chairmanship aspirant sends open letter to President Tinubu

Agege Local Government Chairmanship aspirant, Taiwo Olasunkanmi Samuel (TOS) has sent an open letter to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, over the local government Chairmanship election.

With the deepest sense of respect and loyalty, I write to you not just as an aspirant in the Agege Local Government election scheduled for July 12, but as a son of the soil, a full-blooded member of the Agege community, and more importantly, a citizen who believes in the Nigeria you dream of—a nation where fairness, justice, and merit are not mere slogans but lived realities.

Mr. President, permit me to speak from the heart, the way a son would approach a beloved father in moments of earnest desire. I have no doubt that your heart beats for this country, and that your highest ambition is to leave behind a legacy built on equity and truth. That is why I am reaching out, not to ask for favours, but for what I know you too believe in—a level playing field for all. Everyone can testify that this is one of your philosophies that has endeared your teeming loyalists, including me, to you.

The coming election in Agege is not just a local contest; it is a litmus test of our democratic maturity. It is a mirror that reflects whether or not the voices of the grassroots truly matter in our polity. I have lived among my people, I have eaten from their pots, shared in their sorrows and celebrated their joys. I understand their yearnings not through reports or secondhand tales, but through lived experience. I am one of them—one of their own—and I can tell you today that what they desire is not imposition, not manipulation, but fair play. They want a chance to choose. They want a system that listens, not one that dictates.

I am not the son of a wealthy kingmaker, nor the favourite of powerful brokers. What I am is a child of Agege—born, bred, and shaped by its streets and its stories. I have watched our community rise in resilience, and I know we are capable of achieving more with the right kind of leadership. Agege people want that leadership elected, not anointed.

Your Excellency, I ask you—as a son appeals to his father—please ensure that the machinery of democracy is not hijacked at the grassroots. Let the will of the people be the deciding force in who leads them. Let every aspirant, whether backed by wealth or willpower, have equal opportunity to test their popularity. That is the Nigeria we believe in. That is the Nigeria you are building. That is the leader you are known for.

I believe in your vision. I believe that under your guidance, we can lay the foundation for a more purposeful and people-driven form of representation. Give us a fair ground to run, and let the people decide who truly represents their hopes.

As your son in this vast family called Nigeria, I do not ask for special treatment. I ask only for fairness. And I know, deep down, that you will not deny us that.

May God bless you with the wisdom to continue to lead this nation aright. And may He bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

With utmost respect and sincerity, I remain your loyal political son,

It's obvious you know you have lost already. In your letter it's clear that elections are not conducted in Nigeria, people are only selected. Now are you indirectly asking to be selected as well? Anyway the good thing is that you are asking someone who grabbed power at all cost to allow a free fair election. Where were you when the same person asked all sitting politicians in the local level to remain without an election conducted in Lagos. My dear you see that Nigeria you dream of cannot be in the next 50 years. The politicians have destroyed this nation, but your current president came to bury it.

As a son of the soil myself. I wish you good luck in the next local government election.

Dey play. You're appealing to a drug lord who is building a strong cartel. You're appealing to someone with no single joy of empathy. I say again, dey play!! You're calling him a father? Father??

Nothing can be done, it is either you them and follow their footprint, or they robe you in some troubles, or they kill you. That election won't be free and fair in Lagos? Lagos is bought already.

And the next chairman of Agege must have been anointed. Thugs must have been paid well to cause mayhems that will install the chosen one.

Stop playing sir.

These people like play sha..

Just like telling a goat to coman help protect your yams.

Ask Valentine Ezigbo what happened to him in Anambra APC. Ask Bashir Ahmed what happened to him with Kano APC. Then reach a conclusion on if a Tinubu that imposed a corrupt Obasa on LASHOA can help you out or not. it is Agege LGA election.

For you to expect a free and fair elections at the local government level, it means you don't even know Nigeria politics. For your information they have left you behind

Some people are still mourning their electoral loss. Not to worry, 2027 is almost here

Some of u didn't even bother to read that letter.....to be honest, dis is what Nigeria n Nigerians need now....sadly, this may not happen

Good luck to TOS.

Jagaban, Agege and the rest of the world! If you know you know!

Salewa97:
Jagaban, Agege and the rest of the world! If you know you know!

Yeah We know now , What else we don't know . Grab power by force , Run away with it , Kill whoever that wants to stop the rigging, use all Authorities involved .

Ok

Chief
I know your fears and felt your pains but the truth be told, OBASA's candidate wins the league in Agege. That's the party you find yourself....
Elections is not determined by the people anymore as far as APC Is concerned...
If I say this people go want bite me but I go still talk my talk.
Was it the decision of the people that bŕought The God-father you wrote to into power?
Your Genuine answer will determine the request of your letter...
Epatewo fun Tinubu...

Just forget it. He has already directed his boys to compile a list of local candidates.
Democracy in Nigeria is dead under Tinubu.

Lanretoye:
U Dey by obasa write letter to Tinubu…okay nah

yeah, cos the letter was written because of Obasa. Obasa and his people wan run them street for Agege

see son




STOMACH

Hahaha How many letters would be sent to Mr President before the election?

Why are all these clowns wailing all of a sudden
We're they hit by a rock during the LSHA saga?
How do they expect to be exempted from eating the fruits of godfatherism in politics when they once aided and abetted it

There are words very alien to Tinubu

such as fairness, justice, equity

he knows snatch it, grab it and run away with it... these were his words

Tinubu is here to supervise the killing of Christians and looting of the Nigerian Treasury
