A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and traditional Prime Minister (Lisa) of Osooro Kingdom, Oba Dele Omosehin, has formally declared his intention to contest for the Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency seat.

Omosehin in a statement in Ibadan, stated that he was running for the federal seat after extensive consultations with party leaders, community stakeholders, and the good people of the constituency.

The declaration came during a two-day working tour across Okitipupa and Irele, where he also unveiled the Asejere Movement — a bold political vision anchored on peace, prosperity, and people-centered leadership.

The tour, which commenced last Sunday in Okitipupa, was a continuation of a strategic dialogue initiated weeks ago when Oba Omosehin hosted leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the area.

Omosehin during the visits, reiterated the core values of the Asejere Movement as a platform for rebuilding trust, inspiring hope and driving development across the constituency.

He was warmly received by the leadership of the APC and grassroots party faithful in all the towns visited and it was at the historic gatherings and wide consultations he accepted the overwhelming call to contest and represent Okitipupa/Irele Federal Constituency in the next election.

He said, “I have listened carefully to the voices of our leaders, elders, and the people. With deep humility and a renewed sense of responsibility, I accept the call to serve.

    Let Justice Remain Your Guiding Light, IG Charges New Senior Officers

    The Inspector-General of Police(IG), Kayode Egbetokun, has charged the newly decorated senior officers to lead with fairness, act with integrity, and let justice remain their guiding light both within the Force and in their service to the public.

    He stated that leadership at the top demands equity, justice, and fairness — the enduring values that define true authority and inspire confidence within and beyond the Force.

    Speaking at the decoration ceremony of the newly elevated Deputy Inspectors-General of Police, Assistant Inspectors-General of Police, and Commissioners of Police in Abuja  yesterday, the IG said their actions would set the tone for discipline, professionalism, and morale across the Service.

    He said: “The Nigerian people expect a Force that is smarter, more responsive, and deeply connected to the communities it serves. I therefore charge you to fully embrace the philosophy of Community Policing and the practice of Intelligence-Led Policing as you take on your new commands. Harness technology, empower your personnel, and drive innovations that keep our operations one step ahead of criminal enterprises.” 

    “Let your commands become models of discipline, collaboration, and public trust.”

    He also lamented a coordinated campaign of calumny against the Force’s recent accelerated promotion exercise by those he described as mischief-makers.

    He said: “Recent months have witnessed attempts by certain mischief-makers to cast shadows on the credibility of our promotion process, particularly the accelerated promotion exercise conducted a few months ago. But truth stands taller than rumours. The Nigeria Police Force has nothing to hide and nothing to defend. Every promotion exercise conducted under this administration — including the accelerated promotion exercise — has followed due process: transparent, merit-based, and in strict conformity with established standards.

    There is no promotion scandal in the Nigeria Police Force. What we have is a system that rewards diligence, professionalism, and proven capacity.

    We will not be swayed by those who trade in falsehood or seek to undermine the integrity of our institution. Our commitment to fairness and merit remains unwavering. Promotions in the Nigeria Police today are guided solely by competence, performance, and discipline — there is no place for favouritism, nepotism, or tribal sentiment. This remains the cornerstone of our career management philosophy, for it motivates excellence, strengthens morale, and renews public trust in the Force we so proudly serve.”

    Reminding the officers that leadership is not measured by rank but by impact, Egbetokun stated that promotion brings privilege, but also deeper scrutiny.

    “You must inspire your teams to uphold discipline, professionalism, and trust,” he concluded.
