Professor Siji Olamiju, also known as Akol, an Ex. Cabinet member under the Oyetola administration, has congratulated Rt. Hon. Timothy Owoeye, former Speaker of the Osun State House of Assembly, on his birthday. Akol described Owoeye as a legend in progressive politics, noting that he has remained committed to the progressive ideology since the beginning of his political career.
In a statement released to the press in Osogbo, Osun State, Akol highlighted Owoeye's impressive political journey, which began as a councillor in 1999-2003 and continued with his election to the Osun State Assembly in 2003-2007. Owoeye served as Minority Leader and later became Majority Leader due to his dedication to service. He eventually became the 4th Speaker of the Osun State Assembly.
Akol praised Owoeye's unwavering commitment to the progressive ideology despite being enticed by the ruling party to switch sides. He encouraged Owoeye to remain focused and firm in his beliefs, assuring him that the APC would regain power in the 2026 governorship election.
Akol concluded by praying for Owoeye's long life and the fulfilment of his promises in Jesus' name.
