As a new academic session begins across Oyo State, one voice stands out with a message of inspiration and commitment to the future of our children. Hon. Oluwafemi Abolade Gabriel (Yerima), a rising political figure and a sure upcoming candidate for State Representative of Ona Ara Local Government, has extended heartfelt greetings to all students resuming for the 2025/2026 academic year.
In his goodwill message, Yerima described education as “the bedrock of personal growth and the foundation for a stronger society.” He emphasized that every new school year represents a fresh opportunity for students to rewrite their stories, unlock their potential, and prepare themselves as future leaders.
Reflecting on the challenges many students faced in the past session—ranging from infrastructural setbacks to economic pressures—Yerima commended the resilience of students, parents, and teachers alike. “Your courage and determination in the face of difficulties prove that the Ona Ara spirit cannot be broken. Together, we will rise stronger,” he said.
Yerima called on students to embrace diligence, discipline, and determination, stressing that these values are not only keys to academic success but also life’s greatest stepping stones. He urged them to see education as an empowerment tool capable of transforming their lives, families, and communities.
To parents and guardians, he appealed for continuous support in creating a nurturing learning environment at home, while reminding educators of their noble responsibility to inspire and mentor the leaders of tomorrow. According to him, “The success of our children is a shared responsibility that requires sacrifice, encouragement, and community-driven support.”
Going further, Yerima pledged his unwavering commitment to advocating for policies and programs that will provide better educational infrastructure, accessible resources, and opportunities for Ona Ara students. He affirmed that his vision is one where no child is left behind due to lack of access or support.
“As we begin this new session, let us embrace it with hope and determination. To every student in Ona Ara and beyond, believe in yourself, take advantage of every opportunity, and never forget that diligence pays. Your dreams are valid, and your future is bright,” Yerima declared.
With this message, Hon. Oluwafemi Abolade Gabriel (Yerima) not only welcomes students back to school but also reinforces his brand as a leader deeply rooted in education, community development, and youth empowerment. His words serve as a rallying call for excellence, resilience, and collective responsibility, setting the stage for a brighter future in Ona Ara Local Government and across Oyo State.
