2027: Elections: Osinowo Eyes House of Reps, Pledges Grassroots-Focused Representation

Hon. Jenriyi Osinowo, a frontline aspirant for the Federal House of Representatives, Ijebu North/Ijebu East/Ogun Waterside Federal Constituency, under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has declared that his ambition is driven by a passion to rebrand true representation and ensure governance that reflects the yearnings of the people at the grassroots.

Speaking with newsmen, Osinowo explained that his decision to join the race for the Green Chamber ahead of the 2027 general elections stems from a firm conviction that the constituency deserves a representative who is people-centered, innovative and pragmatic in addressing the challenges of development.

According to him, his aspiration is anchored on the need to champion policies and initiatives that will positively impact the lives of constituents, especially in the critical areas of education, infrastructure, health, job creation, youth and women empowerment.

“I am offering myself for service because I believe our people deserve quality representation. My antecedents as an individual, without holding political office, already speak volumes of what I can deliver if entrusted with the mandate of the people,” Osinowo stated.

Speaking further, he said part of what he intends to rebrand about representation is to make sure it has to do about the people and not just himself.

The APC aspirant further urged residents of the constituency to take advantage of the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise to obtain their Permanent Voter’s Cards (PVCs), noting that it remains their greatest weapon in electing credible leaders.

On why he is contesting under the platform of the APC, Osinowo maintained that the ruling party remains the most viable political platform in Nigeria. He praised the APC for consistently upholding democratic values, while commending President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for what he described as “an excellent performance that has further cemented the party’s status as the right platform for visionary leaders to emerge.”

He reassured his supporters and constituents that if elected, he would deploy his experience, passion and proven track record to bring about genuine development and responsive representation.
