• Naijanews • Politics
On April 12, 2026, Segun Tomori, who served as a special assistant in the Ministry of Solid Minerals Development under Minister Dele Alake, publicly announced his resignation to pursue a political career. He intends to contest for a seat in the House of Representatives representing Oshodi-Isolo Constituency II on the platform of the Progress Congress. Tomori's decision to enter the political arena is influenced by his growing interest in governance and his historical exposure to Nigeria's political landscape, particularly events surrounding the June 12, 1993 presidential election. His past involvement in pro-democracy movements and notable figures such as Bola Tinubu and Anthony Enahoro have shaped his commitment to public service. Tomori's resignation marks a significant step in his political journey as he seeks to contribute to Nigeria's democratic processes.
