Robert Nesta Marley, the Reggae Musical Maestro once said: ” you can fool some people for some time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.”
Many Nigerian politicians have fooled the teeming Nigerian populace for some time. But the question is: can they succeed in fooling the electorate all the time?
No doubt, countless ” poly-tricks- cians” abound in our polity. Many such who are wolves in the sheep’s clothing still pretentiously don the garb of refined politicians in our clime.
The good news is that many opportunistic political jobbers whose trademark is deception are currently on the radar.
Hon OLUSOLA FATOBA, the Member , representing Ado/ Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency of Ekiti State is one Nigerian politician whose topmost hidden secrets will be given a premium attention here.
Unveiling Hon Olusola Fatoba’s deepest Secrets is an Herculean task. All nooks and crannies of his Constituency were combed to accomplish this facts-finding mission!
Ado Ekiti, the native home of Hon Fatoba offered a promising insight into the political stuff Hon Olusola Fatoba Is made of, nay, his roots laid bare his unique selling points politically.
His translating budgets into physical projects in his Constituency is simply amazing!
Hon Fatoba, unlike a typical Nigerian politician, whose major political preoccupation is to scramble for the meaty portion of the wealth of a nearly comatose Nation, has succeeded in generating two powerful Currencies any leader needs in order to go exponentially far in Nigeria’s politics: Performance Currency and Relationship Currency.
It is no hype that Hon Fatoba is a Trail Blazer in the area of Performance Currency.
His performance scoresheet shows that he has generated a high Performance Currency in the areas of education.
Deeply inspired by Benjamin Franklin’s dictum: ” an investment in knowledge pays the best interest”, Hon Olusola Fatoba , on assumption of office in 2019 as a Member representing Ado/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency of Ekiti State put in place a cutting-edge extramural studies for SS3 students in selected schools in his Constituency.

George Washington Carver’s position that” education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom” in no little measure, has propelled Hon Olusola Fatoba to embark on some educational projects which sole aim is to rethink teaching and redesign learning.
Little wonder that Hon Fatoba was highly instrumental in facilitating the construction of some State-of-the-art classrooms buildings in his Constituency to make sure learning is done in a more conducive environment.
As a Tech-Savvy leader, Hon Fatoba has to his credit 3 ICT Centres which were established in Christ’s School, Ado Ekiti, All Souls Anglican School, Ado Ekiti, and Ado Community Grammar School respectively.
Hon Fatoba’s empowerment programmes which are channeled towards manpower development and self-reliance, have raised his visibility in the political landscape of Ekiti.
Hon Olusola Fatoba has delivered on his electoral promises far and a lit bit extra.
The Training and Empowerment programmes for Youth and Women; Youth Advocacy on Drug Abuse in Ado Ekiti/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency, and the Installation of Solar Lights; Completion of Ureje Recreational Centre in Ado Ekiti all gave credence to his people-oriented projects.
His Strategic Empowerment for Youth and Women in Ado/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency as well as the Youth Training and Empowerment on ICT by a high degree put his Constituency in a more vantage position to explore the world of Technology.
The Surface Dressing of the roads in Iyin and Ado ; Renovation of Two roads Union/ Secretariat, Ado Ekiti and lastly; the Tutelage on Safe Fertilizer Application for Farmers in Ado/Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency attest to Hon Fatoba’s returning the Dividends of Democracy to his Constituents in Ado/ Irepodun/Ifelodun Federal Constituency of Ekiti State.
Hon Fatoba’s investments in his Constituents is a boost to his Relationship Currency.
He is well versed in the art of relationship management, which is a quality most politicians are not endowed with.
He is a kind-hearted grassroots leader who ensures that he gives freely to all with premium attention to the people in need.
His generosity has positively earned him the nickname: “Masses’ ATM Machine”
He loathes watching others contending with need or lack.
He is ever appreciative of whatever you do to add value to his vision, mission and career in life, even if it is incalculably small!
Above all, he has a superb interactive nature. He knows the best way to grow his Power, which is by giving it away.
His Voice is always at the Heart of his Power. And this he has been using judiciously.
In the light of the above espoused intimidating Success Secrets of Hon Fatoba, he deserves the right of the Second Coming to the National Assembly for him to accomplish his Messianic / Rescue Mission of translating his Constituency into an oasis of freedom, peace and prosperity.
