Olusegun Kaka: A Lawmaker With A Difference

* A blow-by-blow account of his achievements in Ijebu North State Constituency 

The Ijebu people are widely regarded for their rich socio-cultural heritage and remarkable contributions across politics, education, commerce and the arts. It is within this tradition of excellence that Hon. Odunuga Olusegun Kaka, a Prince of the land has carved his political identity.

Representing Ijebu North State Constituency II at the Ogun State House of Assembly, Kaka has, over the past three years, positioned himself as a grassroots-focused lawmaker committed to service, cultural preservation and community development. He currently serves as Chairman of the House Committee on Information. Often described by associates as humble and accessible, Kaka’s political journey has been guided by a long-standing commitment to selfless service. His legislative agenda is driven by policies and programmes aimed at improving living standards across Ijebu North.

Speaking recently with journalists in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, the lawmaker reflected on his stewardship and expressed gratitude to his party and constituents. 

“This is no doubt a worthy platform to appreciate my party, the All Progressives Congress, and the good people of Ijebu North Constituency II for granting me the opportunity to realise my political ambition.

“I am equally immensely grateful to party faithfuls for their overwhelming support. We truly fought a good fight, struggled together and God graciously rewarded our efforts. I have no regret being there for my people; it remains my utmost concern and obligation.

“I cannot end my story without commending the leader of our party and Governor of the State, Prince Dapo Abiodun CON, who supported me fully. May Almighty God strengthen our hardworking governor and enable him to surpass expectations in his second term,” he added.
