 From Local Talent to Global Opportunity: Endorsing Atitebi's Future-Focused Plan

​The future of Ijebu-East hinges on the opportunities we create today. We stand at a crucial moment where, despite immense potential, many of our youth and aspiring entrepreneurs face barriers of unemployment and limited access to global economic networks. 

This is why the comprehensive vision presented by Olanrewaju Atitebi is not just a proposal, but a foundational blueprint for sustainable prosperity and community development.

​Atitebi’s program distinguishes itself by offering more than just temporary relief; it offers a full ecosystem for economic independence. The heart of this initiative is a robust offering of Vocational Skills designed to meet modern market needs. From the essential trades like Plumbing and Electrical Work to entrepreneurial skills like Tailoring/Fashion Design, Barbering/Grooming, Soap Making, and the rapidly growing POS Business—these are direct pathways to immediate income generation. 

The commitment to establishing an IT Training Hub in Ogbere and a dedicated Vocational Training Center demonstrates a serious, infrastructural investment in our people's potential.

​The genius of Atitebi’s plan lies in the Post-Training Support, recognizing that skills alone are insufficient for success. Participants won't be left to fend for themselves; they will receive critical resources for launching and scaling their ventures. 

This includes Access to Startup Capital through micro-grants or low-interest loans, robust Mentorship & Business Coaching from seasoned professionals, and essential Entrepreneurship Workshops focusing on branding, marketing, and customer service.

 Crucially, the focus on Market Access & Networking aims to give local businesses—born right here in Ijebu-East—both local and international exposure.

​The objectives are clearly ambitious and transformative: to Reduce Poverty & Unemployment by providing real pathways to financial independence, and to Drive Local Growth by boosting small business and entrepreneurship. Most excitingly, the program aims to Enable Global Access, helping our skilled citizens tap into foreign job markets, thereby truly "Bridging the Digital Divide" and connecting Ijebu-East to the global economy.

 The establishment of an Empowerment Alumni Network ensures that this support system becomes self-sustaining for generations to come.

​Olanrewaju Atitebi embodies the qualities we need in leadership: he is a Bold Visionary who dares to connect Ijebu-East to the global stage; a Champion of Practicality whose solutions are rooted in immediate, tangible skills and capital; and an Innovative Leader dedicated to bridging the digital and economic divides. 

His platform translates local talent into global opportunity, ensuring that investment in our people yields lasting dividends. We urge every stakeholder to join us in supporting Olanrewaju Atitebi, the candidate whose Creative Values will turn vision into reality.

​ As Atitebi himself states:

 “It’s time for our people to earn globally, live comfortably, and dream boldly—right here in Ijebu-East.” Let's make that time now.
