How Sunday Bisi Riveted Plot to Replace Fadahunsi with Onigbogi at Senate




 Constituency Office of Hon. Wole Oke (Ijesa North Federal Constituency)

The recent outburst by Sunday Bisi, Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State, attempting to diminish the towering legacy of Hon. Wole Oke, is not only laughable but reeks of selective amnesia and raw political bitterness.

For the record, and for the benefit of the good people of Ijesa North Federal Constituency, let us remind Mr. Bisi of the political hand he already played.


It was Sunday Bisi who riveted the internal party plot to displace Senator Francis Fadahunsi, installing his protégé, Hon. Gbenga Onigbogi, as a preferred Senate candidate. It was Bisi who, under the guise of party coordination, stripped a ranking legislator from Ijesa North of a well-earned Principal Office seat in the Osun State House of Assembly, only to award it to someone from his own political enclave.




These are not allegations. These are the facts.

What moral ground does Sunday Bisi stand on to now question Hon. Wole Oke’s contributions to Ijesaland? While Bisi lounges in beer parlours and engineers internal sabotage, Hon. Wole Oke is building. While Esa Oke sees actual road construction, while new school buildings rise at NURD, Bisi’s domain remains underdeveloped, forgotten, and neglected, a reflection of his misplaced priorities.


This office will not dignify every street-corner rant or pressroom tantrum. But when a man with no record of delivery begins to throw stones at a leader whose works are visible across Ijesa North, a response is necessary.


Hon. Wole Oke is not in a contest of noise. He is in a covenant of service with the people. For over two decades, he has consistently brought federal presence, human capital development, and grassroots empowerment to Ijesa North. His mandate has never depended on political godfathers or manipulative power blocs. It is the people who send him, and it is the people he continues to serve.

Let Sunday Bisi be reminded: you cannot erase relevance by propaganda. You cannot discredit service with schemes. And you cannot build your own image by trying to break down another man’s legacy.


Ijesa North deserves truth, not theatre. And this office stands ready to defend the truth with facts, with history, and with the voice of the people.

BREAKING: Esa-Oke Youths Reunite as Survivors, Caution Pelumi against revisionism

....we’re not your campaign slogan Once upon a glorious, chaotic 2017, practically every able-bodied youth in Esa-Oke held honorary title in the land: Personal Assistant to Barrister Pelumi Olajengbesi. No interviews. No pay. Just passion, blind loyalty, and the stamina to chase him from one campaign ground to the next like a political body double. From Comrade Mainframe to Comrade Swiss, from Yinka Oba to the humble football boys who carried cones like national flags, we were there. We were the movement. Until, of course. Now in 2025, Barrister Pelumi, clearly inspired by a Netflix political drama is on a media tour telling anyone who’ll listen that he "settled everyone who worked for him." Settled who, please? Maybe in his dreams or in the metaverse. In the real world, the story’s a bit different. Those of us from Obokun, who hustled day and night, got exactly zero: no thank you, no handshake. Take Sami, now a former Ward 7 councillor, no thanks from Pelumi. Folusho? Aregbe...

Assassination Attempt: Police can’t deny what’s on their desk, says Amotekun boss

  The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps , High Chief Dr Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele , who is currently receiving treatment at an undisclosed hospital following an attempted assassination on his life on Monday, has strongly refuted the claims made by the Osun State Police Spokeperson regarding the incident. Reacting to the statement by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), who claimed that investigations had not commenced because the Commander had not provided evidence of the attack, the Amotekun boss expressed deep disappointment, labeling the police response as insensitive and misleading. "It is shocking that a police spokesperson would say there is no evidence of an attack when the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) of Ota-Efun Division — the nearest jurisdiction to the incident — was immediately informed," the Commander said. "Officers from that division visited the scene the same night, assessed the damage, evacuated the vehicle, and advised me to seek ...
