Piloting the affairs of house of assembly is assumed to be the most technical political assignment ever,that requires experience and fundamental human relations strength which envelopes series of leadership wisdom with perfect methodology of leading.

Standing on the floor of the house to lead other members is a qualititive measurement in respect of parliament proceedings ,it's requires accurate step taking, Serious legislative business and maturity.

While we await the resumption of new Elected paliamentarians to resume office and commence new session of legislative business in our dear state of Osun,its very important talk about the Leadership of the house.

I solidarise to embrace qualititive house of assembly and ranking productivity of members to enhance suitable manifestation of governance in our dear state, while i look into experience ,years of party manship,years of paliamentarian experience, Political sagacity and leadership qualities,I conclude that the next Osun house of assembly should be a team to be led by a man of honour, a man of integrity, a man of Tiber and Calibar, someone who is Politically modernized and a compatriot supporter  of progressive ideology established by our Leaders who had governed with great achievements and development.
