Celebrating Jagunmolu Amitolu Shittu, A Courageous Builder of Dreams, Hope and Humanity - By Maaroof Kayode Ogundipe

There are individuals whose lives quietly yet powerfully shape the destiny of their communities, men whose courage, compassion and commitment to humanity leave indelible footprints on the sands of time. Jagunmolu Amitolu Shittu stands tall among such rare breeds.

Jagunmolu Shittu is not merely a name, he is a symbol of resilience, purpose and selfless service. Over the years, he has consistently demonstrated uncommon bravery in pursuing noble causes, building dreams where others saw limitations, and restoring hope where despair once prevailed. His life’s journey is a testament to the power of vision, discipline and unwavering faith in humanity.
As a courageous builder of dreams, Jagunmolu Shittu has touched countless lives through mentorship, empowerment and community development initiatives. He believes firmly that progress is most meaningful when it uplifts others, and this philosophy has guided his engagements across social, economic and humanitarian spheres. From supporting the less privileged to encouraging youth development, his impact resonates far beyond personal accomplishments.

What truly distinguishes Jagunmolu Shittu is his deep sense of humanity. In an era often marked by self-interest, he remains a beacon of empathy and generosity. His doors are open, his counsel sincere, and his actions driven by a genuine desire to see people thrive irrespective of background or status.

Today, as we celebrate the birthday of Jagunmolu Amitolu Shittu, we celebrate more than a man, we celebrate a legacy of hope, courage and service. His life inspires us to dream boldly, act compassionately and commit ourselves to the collective good of our society.

On this special occasion, I salute a true community pillar, a man of honour and a relentless advocate of human dignity. May your journey continue to inspire generations yet unborn, and may your works forever speak for you.

Signed:
Engr. Maaroof Kayode Ogundipe
Executive Chairman, Obokun Local Government.

By Ismail Omipidan  This particularly piece, is deliberately not going to be a long one. It is a follow-up to the part One and Two that I shared last year. This very intervention is necessited by my appearance as a Public Affairs Analyst on News Central TV last night , where i discussed the same subject matter. It also forms part of my continued effort to contribute meaningfully to political discourse by promoting accurate information and countering the spread of unverified claims, half-truths, and propaganda. For clarity, I have presented my submissions in bullet points, titled “15 Points to Know on the Osun Local Government Crisis.” Here are the points:  1. Governor Ademola Adeleke lied when he claimed he did not sack the council chairmen and councillors he met when he assumed office.   2. On the 28th of November,  2022, barely 24 hours after his swearing-in, his CPS, Mr. Olawale Rasheed, issued a statement directing the most senior career heads ac...
