If leadership must matter to the people, it must be measured by the solutions it brings to their everyday challenges. For Afijio Constituency, the priorities are clear: youth empowerment, quality education, improved infrastructure, and inclusive grassroots development. Hon. Olaleye Olusegun Thomas has positioned himself as a candidate who not only understands these challenges but also has the passion and foresight to turn them into opportunities for growth.
One of the most urgent concerns in Afijio is the future of the youth. Too many young people are unemployed or underemployed, despite their potential and creativity. Thomas envisions a constituency where the youth are no longer left behind but are supported with opportunities for skills acquisition, entrepreneurship, and mentorship. By facilitating training programmes, partnerships, and enabling environments, he believes Afijio’s youth can become not just job seekers but job creators.
Education is another cornerstone of his vision. Thomas believes that no community can rise above the quality of its schools. He is committed to advocating for stronger government investment in education across Afijio — from basic infrastructure to modern learning tools — while also championing scholarships and support initiatives for brilliant but less privileged students. For him, education is not just a right but the foundation upon which Afijio’s development must be built.

Equally important is rural and infrastructural development. Thomas understands that Afijio cannot progress if its rural communities remain neglected. His agenda prioritises lobbying for state-backed road construction, electrification projects, water supply, and healthcare facilities, ensuring that no ward or community feels excluded. He believes development must touch lives directly and leave a lasting legacy of progress.
At the heart of all this is his people-first philosophy: a conviction that leadership is about service, not privilege. Thomas’s vision is clear, a future where Afijio Constituency is not left behind in the politics of Oyo State but is recognised as a hub of potential, growth, and opportunity.
