In addition, she recently donated solar powered street light to almost all wards within the federal constituency which is the first in the area.
A beneficiary Comrade Wasiu Kareem while appreciating the ADC candidate, said, “FFA is a distinguished personality that carries all the youth along and pays a listening ear to plights of the people. She relates freely with the people,even with little or no security guards.”
Another beneficiary who is a market woman, Mrs Ajayi Sumbo said “FFA is not only young and energetic, she is also a mother figure to the youth, and willing to give the dividends of democracy to the people. Unlike the incumbent House of Representative member who is not only unaccessible, but also has no significant impact on the social , economic well-being of the people of Ifo/Ewekoro. “
She added that ,”if we have someone like FFA in office, all and sundry will benefit as she is already exhibiting it “.
The youth and students population who benefited where full of appreciation and gratitude, saying it was the first time they were benefiting from such, while promising to pay her back with massive votes.
In her remarks, Hon Florence Funlola Akinrinde appreciated the people at the event, promising to do more once elected into office at the poll .
She assured the people of Ifo/Ewekoro that she felt the pain of their years of neglect, suffering from social amenities, unemployment, and insecurity.
Hon Akinrinde queried, that the incumbent has served for over 7 years with no tangible dividends of democracy to show , and the people are obviously sick and tired.
She said ,” hence the call for a woman figure which I Funlola represent. I promised to continuously care for the good people of Ifo / ewekoro federal constituency as I have done in times past.”
