A lawmaker representing Ibadan North Constituency I in the Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon. Comforter Olajide, has declared readiness to bringing democratic development closer to her constituents.

She made this known while commissioning multiple projects and empowering constituents with vocational training start-up grants and kits in Ibadan, on Saturday.

The projects commissioned included a newly built Amotekun Office, renovated Police Officers’ Wives Association (POWA) shops, and constructed boreholes with generators to serve as alternative power sources.

“I see myself fulfilling destiny by bringing development closer to my people in my own way,” she said.

She assured her constituents of continued service and greater impact if given the opportunity for a second term.
