The aspiration of Hon. Abdulwaheed Shola Jimoh Idiagbon, fondly called SIJ, to contest for the Federal House of Representatives, seat on Thursday received a boost at the homestead as the family organised him a special prayer.

The special prayer, attended by the family members and well wishers of the politician, was led by the Chief Imam of Idiagbon compound mosque, Alhaji Aremu Salihu, at his ancestral home, along Emir’s road, Ilorin.

Idiagbon is eyeing an APC ticket to represent the people of Ilorin East and South Federal Constituency in the forthcoming 2023 general election.

He said “Shola, is our pride, due to uncommon traits of him; he has been doing a lot in terms of community and human capital development, such as provision of solar light, borehole water, payment of less privileged students school fees and other empowerment to people.

We could recall that Shola Idiagbon, contested the party’s ticket in 2019 election for the same position and laid claim to the wining of the party’s primary election but eventually relinquished the ticket to the present occupier after a lot of brouhaha in the interest of the party success.
