Tolu Odebiyi Announces Senate Bid, Supports Tinubu's Reforms

Tolu Odebiyi, a former lawmaker representing Ogun West in the 9th National Assembly, has officially announced his intention to return to the Senate by picking the All Progressives Congress (APC) senatorial nomination form for his district. In a statement issued on Thursday by his media office, Odebiyi described his comeback as a strategic necessity following the party's adoption of Olamilekan Adeola as the consensus governorship candidate for Ogun State.

He argued that sustaining ongoing development in Ogun West requires experienced legislative leadership capable of complementing executive policies at the national level. Odebiyi commended President Bola Tinubu for his bold and far-reaching reforms since assuming office, which he believes are setting Nigeria on a path toward economic restructuring and long-term stability.

He highlighted key policy measures from Tinubu's administration, including the removal of fuel subsidies and ongoing tax reforms. Odebiyi's previous tenure included significant legislative contributions and community development initiatives, and he pledges to provide credible, result-driven representation if elected.
