Chris Ayebusiwa, who represents Okitipupa Constituency I at the Ondo State House of Assembly, has declared that the newly appointed member of the NDDC board from Ondo State, Hon Otito Atikase, deserves the position.

Hon Ayebusiwa said this on Saturday in a congratulatory statement he released on his verified Facebook account, wherein he described Atikase’s appointment as heart-warming.

The statement reads: “Hon Atikase is a long-distance runner as far as politics and community service are concerned. He has paid his dues in party development, community service, loyalty, and sterling contributions.

“His roles in the electoral successes of our party in the last general election were particularly remarkable and commendable. What he got is therefore what he deserved, and I congratulate him most heartily on behalf of the good people of Okitipupa Constituency I.”

The lawmaker who said Atikase can be trusted to deliver on his mandate wishes him well in the new position.

“I have no doubts whatsoever about his capacity to deliver on the mandate and to bring home tangible dividends to his constituents, given his track record and fine ideologies. We are wishing him divine guidance, wisdom, and energy to do well in this position of trust.”
