OPEN LETTER OF ENDORSEMENT AND APPEAL

OPEN LETTER OF ENDORSEMENT AND APPEAL

The Youth of Akoko North West Constituency 1 Unanimously Call on Prince Comrade Kayode Ariwajoye to Contest for the Ondo State Assembly Seat

We, the coalition of concerned youth and recognized community groups from all wards within Akoko North West Constituency 1, acting under the auspices of the Dr. Mujidat Iyaoloja Project 2027 (Ondo State Chapter), write this open letter not merely as a political endorsement, but as a deeply respectful and heartfelt appeal to our State Coordinator.

After extensive deliberations and a thorough appraisal of the political landscape, we have concluded that our constituency stands at a crossroads.

We require a leader who does not just seek a title, but one who has already demonstrated the capacity to fight for our people against all odds. We believe that leader is you—Prince Comrade Kayode Ariwajoye.

Our call is not based on empty rhetoric, but on the undeniable evidence of your character and your track record of sacrifice.

We remember, and we will never forget, the courage you displayed when the voice of our youth was silenced by unresponsive representatives.

When our communities in Ikaram, Iyani, Ibaram, Arigidi, Agbaluku, and Ikare cried out for the rehabilitation of our dilapidated infrastructure, you did not wait for permission. You stood your ground.

Despite credible threats from the thugs of those who preferred to be "rubber stamp" representatives rather than voices of the people, you remained undaunted.

You single-handedly financed and placed open letters in national dailies, demanding accountability and shining a national spotlight on our neglect.

That act of personal sacrifice and political courage proved that your loyalty lies not with political intimidation, but with the people.

Your capacity for organization and development is equally undeniable.

You took the Ikaram Youth Forum from an idea and built it from scratch into a nationally recognized, CAC-certified organization.

This is the hallmark of a leader who does not just talk about change but builds the institutions to achieve it. It is this quality that led a respected figure like Barrister Williams Daudu, Chief Registrar of the National Industrial Court of Nigeria, to publicly acknowledge your impact, stating, and we quote: "Bode, thank you, thank you for harmonizing. Before your emergence as Ikaram Youth President, it was as if Ikaram Akoko didn't have a youth. But since you came on board, you have been doing tremendously well."

This testimonial captures the essence of your leadership: you create something from nothing, you unite where others divide, and you give a voice to the voiceless.

It is for these reasons—your proven mass mobilisation capacity, your deep grassroots strength, your youthful agility, and your seasoned political experience combined with a track record of accountability, transparency, and integrity—that we see you as the ideal candidate.

Your dynamic approach is the perfect fit for the task of driving the infrastructure development our communities so desperately need.

Therefore, with the full weight of our conviction, we appeal to you, Prince Comrade Kayode Ariwajoye, to heed the clarion call of your people.

We urge you to answer this demand and officially contest for the position of State Assembly Member representing Akoko North West Constituency 1 in the 2027 elections.

We believe you are the square peg in the square hole. You are the leader we need to bridge the gap between the people and the government.

We stand ready to mobilize, to campaign, and to work tirelessly to ensure your victory.

The time for representation that serves the people is now.

Signed;

Concerned Youth of Akoko North West Constituency 1

(On behalf of the Dr. Mujidat Iyaoloja Initiative Project 2027, Ondo State Chapter)
