Today, I picked up my nomination and expression of interest forms as I seek to return to the Nigerian Senate, continuing my efforts to provide effective and responsive representation for the people of Ogun East Senatorial District under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Your Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR @officialABAT, Today, as you mark another milestone in a life dedicated to public service, nation-building, and transformative leadership, I join your family, friends, political associates, and millions of Nigerians in celebrating a true statesman whose journey has been defined by vision, resilience, courage, and unwavering commitment to the progress of our dear nation. I remain grateful for the enduring relationship we have shared over the decades; one built on mutual respect, shared ideals, and a common vision for a greater Nigeria. I have no doubt that with your continued guidance, our nation will surmount its present challenges and emerge stronger, more prosperous, and more united. On this special day, I pray that the Almighty God grants you robust health, divine wisdom, unfailing strength, and many more years of impactful service to humanity. May your days be filled with joy, fulfilment, and the continued grace to lead Nigeria to greater heights. Happy 74th Birthday, Mr. President! - OGD

I join my faith with millions of Muslim faithful across Nigeria, Ogun State, and most especially Ogun East senatorial district in celebrating the completion of the mandatory Ramadan. May Allah SWT shower His endless mercy, blessings on you all and accept your Ibadah. Happy Eid Mubarak!

There is no better way to identify the unity of religion and the symbolism of faith than the co-occurrence of Ramadan and the Lenten season. As Christians and Muslims worldwide embark on this journey of penitence and rededication to God’s will and commandments, I pray that the sacrifices will find favour in the eyes of the Almighty. I also encourage everyone to pray for our dear country, Nigeria, and our leaders.

Your Exc, Sen Ibikunle Amosun @SIAmosun , As you celebrate another glorious year on earth, I wish you and your family God’s continuous preservation, blessings and grace. Happy birthday. OGD

As we begin this New Year, I wish everyone a prosperous year, the fulfilment of dreams, and a life full of bliss. Our nation deserves our prayers and blessings. May God Almighty rekindle our communities with peace and Nigerians generally with unity. Happy New Year.

I warmly extend my season's greetings to friends, families, the good people of Ogun East Senatorial District and all Nigerians. As we celebrate Christmas, may our homes be filled with joy, peace and love. I wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous rewarding 2026. May the years ahead bring renewed hope and shared progress for us all.

I have just been informed of the demise of Otunba Francis Banwo. An astute educationist who served as my Commissioner for Education and later as Special Adviser. I am glad he made his mark while on earth and served our state diligently. I pray that God Almighty grant his family the fortitude to bear the loss.

Rethinking the strategy for the Security of our Nation is no longer an option, but a choice we all need to make.

I received the devastating news of the passing of my brother and friend, Segun Awolowo Jnr, the worthy grandson of the late sage, Chief Obafemi Awolowo with great sadness. His death is a painful and monumental loss, not only to the distinguished family, but to many of us who shared a relationship with him, to the people of Ogun State and to the nation at large. Segun Awolowo Jnr lived a life defined by grace, service, loyalty to family values, and an unwavering commitment to the ideals of nation-building. In every assignment he undertook, he carried the Awolowo legacy with dignity and excellence. I recall his calm intellect, refined disposition, and patriotic spirit which I believe will be sorely missed. It is a very difficult moment for many of us who shared a common bond with Segun, and no amount of words can ease the depth of sorrow. I pray that the Almighty God grant every member of the Awolowo family the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss and I pray for comfort and the strengthening of spirit for the family that he left behind. On behalf of my family and the entire Ogun East Senatorial District, I stand with the family in prayers during this moment of grief and may the soul of Segun find eternal rest in the bosom of the Lord. With deepest sympathy, Otunba Gbenga Daniel, FNSE, CON Senator, Ogun East Former Governor, Ogun State

Happy 90th Birthday to the wonderful matriarch of Ogun East, Mrs. Victoria Olaitan Abiodun! ​I deeply appreciate the engaging moments and productive discussions we’ve shared. Mama's sharp memory and warm spirit remind me so much of my own mother, especially with them sharing the name Olaitan. Mothers like her are a blessing and must be cherished. ​We celebrate your nine decades of grace. Happy Birthday, Mama! ​#MamaAbiodunAt90 #HappyBirthday #Olaitan

On behalf of my family and the good people of Ijebu and Remo, I commiserate with the national chairman of our party, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, on the demise of his mother, Mrs. Lydia Yilwatda. I am confident Mama lived a fulfilled life with pride and joy. I pray almighty God grant her eternal rest.

Chief Osoba is one of the luckiest Nigerians that ever lives. His garden of roses seem to be watered from a celestial realm, and his bread always buttered by Providence; he is always there when and where things are happening whether by accident or happenstance. From a curb reporter to an editor, MD and publisher with just his pen. At 86, he is still very much around. Happy birthday to the Leader of APC in *Ogun State*. -OGD

I received the news of the passing of our highly reverred monarch, His Royal Majesty, Oba Sikiru Kayode Adetona, GCON Ogbagba II, the Awujale of with great sadness and profound sense of loss. His death was a personal loss to me because we shared a great deal of confidence and close relationships. Kabiyesi, was not just our traditional ruler in Ìjèbú land, but a father figure to many of us. His life exemplified the true core values of what the whole of Ijebu people represent; he was the moral compass of integrity, courage and wisdom. He symbolizes the full essence of our culture and traditional values. In his 65 years on the throne, Kabiyesi, became the symbol and identity of progress, resourcefulness and enterprise earning the sobriquet as "Orisa Ijebu", an apotheosis of a god with spiritual authority and a dispenser of prosperity. His exit marked a significant closure of an exciting era and the reopening of a new chapter in the history of Ìjèbú and Yoruba land in general. His long reign and ripe old age filled a void in our ancestry and common history. We mourn! I extend my heartfelt commiseration to His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces , a personal friend and alter ego of Kabiyesi Awujale Adetona; to the Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun; to the good people of Ogun State and most especially every sons and daughters of Ìjèbú land at home and in the diaspora; my condolences to the Olorituns, the Council of Otunbas and Chiefs and to the immediate families of Kabiyesi Awujale on this loss. I am personally comforted that Kabiyesi Adetona has just transitioned into the eternal realm of immortality and spirituality where he will forever superintend over the affairs of Akile Ijebu and its prosperity. I wish his earthly family the guidance of the Almighty as I pray for their comfort to be able to bear the pains of this spiritual accension to the world of saints. His Excellency, The Senator Otunba Gbenga Daniel, FNSE, FNAENG, Otunba Obalofin of Ìjèbú land, Royal Court of the Awujale of Ijebuland.

The news of former President Muhammadu Buhari's demise comes as a shock. The former president was a patriotic leader who loved Nigeria beyond measure. At the critical times that our country demands his interventions, he answered the clarion call. A man of modest means and simple lifestyle. He will be missed greatly for his dedication to make Nigeria a better place.

The celebration of Eid Mubarak is a testimony to the power of endurance, obedience and penitence. Like every tunnel of darkness, there is a light at the end. As we all continue to do our best for a wonderful and prosperous country, I wish all Muslim faithful a wonderful celebration and God’s unending provision. Barka de Sallah

The hallmark of our endeavours in life is to leave a better society and formidable system that amplifies the potential of our children and the ones to come after them. Children are not just our symbols, they are our heritage, our legacy. Happy Children's Day to our kids. May they be granted opportunities to fulfil God’s plan in their lives.

Today, I had the honour and satisfaction of standing before hundreds of engineering undergrads from my alma mater @UnilagNigeria and from other institutions like @LASUOfficial , @realLasustech to share life's wonderful lessons. It was quite a fulfilling way to kickstart the 35th anniversary of @Krestalaurelltd. For KLL, It's been quite a journey that speaks to a shared vision, resilience, perseverance.

I join all millions of Ijebu sons and daughters around the world to celebrate our Kabiyesi Ọba Sikiru Olukayọde Adetọna, GCON, Ọgbagba Agbotewole II on the celebration of his 91st birthday anniversary. I pray that almighty Allah continue to grant him good health and wisdom to guide us all.
