Rep Olumide Osoba putting Ogun children’s interest first as constituency gets brand new educational projects
Rep Olumide Osoba, a member of Nigeria’s national assembly representing Abeokuta North/Obafemi-Owode/Odeda federal constituency has continued to be a blessing to his constituency. The unassuming federal lawmaker is not only walking his talk but he is steadily adding values to his constituents through various infrastructural projects and interventions aimed at improving the economic life of his people.
Besides, his commitment to the infrastructural development of his constituency. Another project dear to Rep Olumide is the welfare of children in his constituency. In the last one year or so of his legislative assignment he has been at the forefront of legislative efforts to give the Nigerian children a better deal in the scheme of things in the country. Rep Olumide Osoba commitment to the well-being of the children shines through in his constituency projects most of which are targeted at securing the bright future of children in his constituency through provision of educational facilities that will aid their intellectual capabilities.
Rep Olumide Osoba might be walking his way to historic reckoning in the scheme of things in his constituency going by the long list of projects facilitated and completed by him in the last few years. From Power Generation and Primary Healthcare to Employment Drive and Youth Skill Acquisition, it has been a story of ‘is word his bond’.
For Rep Olumide, one of the most important areas of his attention is the education field where he is committing a large chunk of the people’s resources in providing the children in his constituency the requisite tools and empowerment for them to soar.
Under the School Rehabilitation and Renovation programme for his constituency, Rep Olumide has built no less than six, 6 schools in different locations within his constituency. The schools boasts of paraphernalia of best schools in this part of the world. As you read, three of the schools previously commissioned are already in use to the educational benefits of his constituents.
And as if that’s not enough, the quiet federal lawmaker is set to commission another set of educational projects built across the length and breadth of his federal constituency. Top on the list of educational projects billed for commissioning and official handing over tomorrow, September 12, 2020 include – Block of Three Classrooms at African Church Primary School, Ita-Iyalode, Abeokuta. Others include Block of Three Classrooms at African Church Grammar School, Ita-Iyalode, Abeokuta, ICT Centre for E-learning at Kobape Community High School, Kobape. Also billed for commission is another well-equipped ICT Centre for E-learning located at Ansar-Ud-Deen Grammar School in Isaga – Orile.
These developmental projects by Rep Olumide Osoba are being felt everywhere in his constituency. No doubt, the likeable lawmaker is in a hurry to turn things around in his constituency.

From Rejection to Record-Breaker: LASU’s Best Graduating Student Thought She Had Failed in Life
From Rejection to Record-Breaker: LASU’s Best Graduating Student Thought She Had Failed in Life
In an inspiring twist of fate, Miss Isioma Nwosu, who once believed she had failed in life after missing out on her dream course, emerged as the Overall Best Graduating Student of Lagos State University (LASU) for the 2023/2024 academic session with an astounding CGPA of 4.93.
Nwosu, a graduate of Biochemistry, captivated the audience with her moving valedictory speech at LASU’s 28th Convocation Ceremony, held at the university’s main campus in Ojo.
“I thought I had failed in life,” she confessed, recounting the heartbreak of not gaining admission to study Medicine and Surgery—her lifelong ambition.
After finishing secondary school as her set’s valedictorian in 2019, Nwosu faced a major blow: she scored just two points below the cut-off mark to study Medicine at the University of Ibadan. The setback forced her to retake UTME, a decision she said left her humiliated and defeated.
“A valedictorian writing UTME again? It was a bitter pill to swallow,” she recalled.
When she eventually reapplied to study Medicine and Surgery—this time at LASU—fate again dealt her a curveball. She was offered Biochemistry, a course she admitted she had “never heard of” until that moment.
“My heart broke a second time. I couldn’t embrace the course at first,” she said.
But through perseverance, and the encouragement of her lecturers and friends, Isioma not only embraced Biochemistry—she excelled beyond all expectations, finishing top of a graduating class of 11,917 students.
“Dreams Can Be Delayed, Not Denied”
In a stirring message to fellow graduates and aspiring students, Nwosu urged young people not to abandon their dreams in the face of rejection or redirection.
“Never be afraid of having big dreams. Your dreams are the seeds of greatness. You are resilient, capable, and prepared for the future,” she said.
She also stressed the importance of surrounding oneself with “friends of value, vision, and ambition.”
VC Urges Graduates to Shape Their Legacy
In her address, LASU Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Ibiyemi Olatunji-Bello, praised the class of 2023/2024, reminding them that they hold the pen to write the next chapter of their lives.
“You’ve demonstrated excellence in both character and learning. Now use that knowledge to drive meaningful change,” she charged.
The university awarded diplomas, degrees, and certificates across various disciplines, celebrating not just academic success but stories of resilience and transformation—none more powerful than that of Isioma Nwosu, who turned disappointment into distinction.
