In a remarkable display of commitment to community development, Chief Ajibola Isiaka Adegoroye Salawu Areokuta, the Mogaji of the Ogidi-Areokuta Compound in Ibadan, has illuminated the lives of residents in his communities by donating 40 solar lights.

The impact of this generous gesture extends not only to Mogaji Areokuta’s own compound but also to neighbouring communities, including Agbole Olunlade, Agbole Oyadolu, Agbole Aronfesu, Agbole Obe, Agbole Alapafon, Agbole Apaturupu, Agbole Kosiola, Agbole Elesin, and Agbole Areokuta.

This is not the first time Mogaji Areokuta has left an indelible mark on his community. Thirteen years ago, he took the initiative to provide tap water in four strategic locations, including the central mosque of the community.

The fact that the tap water pipes are still functional today stands as a testament to his enduring commitment to improving the quality of life for those in his vicinity. Furthermore, Mogaji Areokuta continues to bear the financial responsibility of settling all water corporation bills, showcasing a rare blend of generosity and civic responsibility.

Chief Ajibola Isiaka Adegoroye Salawu, a former youth leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State, stands out as a people-oriented tribal aristocrat and charismatic community leader. His actions go beyond the realm of politics, as he consistently channels his efforts towards initiatives that directly benefit the people he serves.

Mogaji Areokuta’s benevolence is deeply rooted in his core values as a humanitarian and tribal aristocrat in Ibadan Land. His latest contribution, the installation of solar lights, not only brings illumination to the physical spaces but also symbolises a beacon of hope and progress for the entire community.

As a role model and pillar of support, Chief Ajibola Isiaka Adegoroye Salawu continues to inspire others to make a positive impact on their communities, proving that true leadership transcends titles and extends into the realm of genuine service to humanity.
