In a congratulatory message released by the Head of the Media Unit to the Chairman, Opeyemi Rasheed Socrates, and made available to the media on Tuesday, Falana described Ogundoyin as a visionary leader whose political journey continues to inspire young people across Oyo State and beyond.

He said the Speaker’s style of leadership reflects a deep understanding of the aspirations of young Nigerians and a practical commitment to nurturing future leaders.
“Rt. Hon. Ogundoyin has consistently demonstrated that leadership is about service, vision, and impact.
