Introducing My Football Club, Ibadan United FC. I’ve always loved the game of football. As you all know, I’m a die-hard fan of Shooting Stars, a club I have supported for over 40 years, right from when I was a kid. It’s a club I even sponsored for a few years at one point. However, I’ve always wanted to own my own football club. But I didn’t want to have a club in Ibadan that would play against Shooting Stars. About five years ago, my friend, @biolakazeem and I came up with the idea of establishing one in Lekki, Lagos, where I have a home and where the head office of my businesses is located. So, we formed Lekki United and competed in the NLO, the third tier of the Nigerian football league. After about two years, European scouts started noticing some of our players and began approaching us about collaborations which includes taking them abroad. That was when it dawned on me. My people in Egbeda/Ona-Ara Federal Constituency, my people in Ibadan, and indeed Oyo State in general, should be the ones benefiting from this opportunity. That was when I decided to rebrand the club and move it to Ibadan. The issue of playing against Shooting Stars should not be a problem. In fact, we can even help Shooting Stars. The club can serve as a pipeline for talent to the Oluyole Warriors and to clubs abroad. More importantly, it is a pathway to help talented footballers in my constituency and across Oyo State realise their dreams. So, here we are. Ibadan United Football Club is here. We play in the 3rd Tier of Nigerian Football, the NLO We will make history together. Akin Alabi Hon. Akin Alabi Egbeda/Ona-Ara Federal Constituency Ajia Olubadan of Ibadanland

The Senate Texas race between Talarico and Paxton has cost over $500m already. And that’s just for advertising. The campaigns and elections are getting too expensive. It gets worse every election cycle.

At this point, maybe we APC and our supporters will be needing bullet proofs in Oyo state.

Panic mode!

Delaying the inevitable.

I was having breakfast jejely when this lovely lady walked in asking to see me that she sees me online but would like to meet me in person. She made me feel like a superstar. ❤️🥰

I thank the youth of Oki, under the aegis of the OKYF Youth Forum, for organising a football competition in my name. Apart from the projects that I facilitated to their community, they understand my passion for football and my commitment to grassroots sports development. That’s why I established Ibadan United FC, to discover and develop young football talents and provide them with opportunities to show their talents. I am happy that we are already seeing results, with one of our players securing a contract in Europe.

A few hours ago, I received the youths of Wakajaiye, Egbeda Local Government, at home. They have decided to pitch their tents with the APC, expressing their disappointment with the APM led state and local governments, which they believe have abandoned their community. Their decision was motivated by my intervention programs and projects facilitated across our constituency. Together, we will continue to work towards a better future for Wakajaiye, Egbeda, Ona-Ara, and Oyo State. Hon Akin Alabi Egbeda/Ona-Ara Federal Constituency

Yesterday, I paid a surprise visit to our party members in Erunmu as they held their APC Ward 1 meeting in Egbeda Local Government. I can see that Ward 1 is ready. Beyond that, our party’s performance in Erunmu has been phenomenal. The intervention on the Erunmu–Owobaale Road speaks for itself, and the people are happy.

Jose. Still managing at the very top almost 10 years after United fans said he was washed but today, we are stuck with and applauded Carrick because he looked teary and waved to the fans. We better go get Conte.
