At the beginning of the day, Afuape hosted a commitment from the parties concerned at the Ce Tenaty Hall in Abeokuta, where he had time to reflect on his legislative journey in the last year.
In a well -accepted speech, the legislator underlined the importance of his legislative contributions and detailed his results in the field of education, safety, power and enhancement of young people.
Hon. AFUAPE has made great strides to advance the well -being of its components through key legislative actions.
As part of his main responsibilities, the legislator said he has sponsored a series of invoices aimed at improving national governance and local development.

Other legislative initiatives highlighted by Afuape include the bill on the amendment of the National Council for the arts and culture and the bill on the modification of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (Nahcon).
In addition, he has started movements to deal with issues such as the supply of stable electricity for consumers and the promotion of traditional fabric industries such as being and Kampala, as part of his cultural defense.
AFUAPE’s commitment to his electoral college extends beyond the legislation to the concrete interventions of the community.
During the year, he facilitated several infrastructure projects, in particular in the education sector.

The dedication of Afuape to enhance young people in his electoral college was evident in its distribution of subsidies and startup equipment to young entrepreneurs.
Through various training programs, including the installation of the solar panel and the donations of sewing machines, it has helped many young people to acquire marketable skills that authorize them to create their own activities.
By further strengthening his commitment for the creation of jobs, the legislator has provided rotating loans to merchants and craftsmen in collaboration with associations based on the community such as the Panseke Traders Association and the Itko-Kesi-Emere women’s group. Afuape also said that 50 people had been appointed legislative assistants, providing them with a precious work experience.

A participant appealed to the legislator to guided legislation to curb the growing issue of drug abuse in the electoral college, which has become a significant challenge, in particular among young people.
The request for an urgent intervention resounded with the participants, who urged Afuape to prioritize the laws that would have fought the increase in the problem of drug abuse.
