In the build up to have democratically elected Chairmen in the 33 local government areas of Oyo state, Oyo West local government area with its headquarters at Ojongbodu deserves to be managed and led by exceptional leader that knows the working of closest tier of government to the people.
Little wonder Hon. Daud Temitope Wahab fondly called Prof T, a grassroot mobilser thrown the hat to join the race in the quest to serve people of Oyo West local government area of Oyo state.

In his quest for knowledge to become a better person, he proceeded to the prestigious premier university, University of Ibadan, for his bachelor degree in Library, Archival and Information studies between 2011 and 2014.
During his undergraduate days, Hon Dauda Wahab Temitope was a dodged and courageous comrade in the field of struggle, which prompted him to accept the call to serve in various students’ organizations, some of which are; President, National Association of Mathematics Students of Nigeria (NAMSN) OYSCOED, General Secretary, Students’ Union Government OYSCOED for 2006/2007 academic session, Secretary General, LARRISA, 2012/2013 academic seession UI chapter, Vice President, Member of Parliament, Chief Judge and later President, National Association of Oyo Students (NAOS) National Council all through his academic pursuit.

Hon. Daud is a strong believer of Governor Seyi Makinde philosophy of good governance which places interest of people above others. Hon. Daud is in his youthful age, he possessed the energy and intellectual prowess to change narrative in the local government and deliver good governance. He knows the nooks and crannies of the local government that cut across; Akeetan, Ajokidero/Akewugberu, Fasola/Soku, Isokun I, Isokun II, Iyaji, Opapa, Pakoyin and Idode.
It will be suicidal for the party to present someone who was given 14 months to direct the affairs of local government and failed to tour any ward, factionalized the party and diverted the entire Council resources to his personal camp.
Presenting a candidate of above 50 years and those smelling 60 years will be counter-productive to the effective administration of Oyo West local government area. Oyo West local government needs a youthful Chairman that can go extra mile to deliver good governance.
