As a result of daddy's political prowess and writing skills, Alhaji occupied many political positions, not restricted to PDP ward secretary(Oke-Ogun Ilorin South) for good uninterrupted 14 years service to humanity.
Traceably, as a core loyalist to the late Abdubakar Olusola Saraki, of the blessed memory, daddy served the dynasty with full loyalty and all political principles which tailored and agreed to principle of political engagements with little or no compromise.
Appreciatively, daddy is blessed with potential and societal showy personalities, among but not limited to, Abdlulrasheed Olarewaju Ganiyu who is an Agric expert, Rasheed Yekeen who is seasoned radio, TV, online media presenter with vast knowledge in the industry. The duo were not alone as numerous blessing enjoys by the Alhaji but formed the integral part of many children, grandchildren and great - grandchildren of the celebrant.
