Adeyemi who is an honourable member of Osun State House of Assembly representing Obokun State Constituency empowered the lady who is from Boripe/Boripe State constituency because of her “inspired” move.

Meanwhile, the National Vice President of Ijesa Youth Forum, Idowu Ogungbemi in a statement lauded the state lawmaker for his “remarkable and benevolent gesture towards the youth of Ijesaland.

He noted specifically the extraordinary support for Miss Aina Emitomo who is aspiring to achieve her dreams despite her condition.

“Your actions, dear honourable, have not only demonstrated your unwavering commitment to uplifting the life of Miss Aina Emitomo but have also set an inspiring example of how true leadership is meant to make a positive impact. Your decision to help establish a hairdressing shop for Miss Aina Emitomo and cover her freedom fee is a testament to your genuine concern for their wellbeing and prosperity.

“Your support has not only enabled her to become independent but also given her the opportunity to take charge of her own future as a boss in her own right. Your actions will undoubtedly inspire countless others to strive for their dreams with renewed determination and hope.
