A Call for Recognition and Inclusion: Ise/Orun Students and Youth Body Appeal to Political Leaders.*
15-03-2026
The students and youth body of Ise/Orun Local Government Area in Ekiti State hereby call the attention of our distinguished political leaders to the growing concerns regarding the neglect of young people in the region.
Ise/Orun Local Government is privileged to have produced several notable and highly placed political figures who currently represent and serve the people in various capacities. Among these respected leaders are the *Honourable Member, Ekiti State House of Assembly, Honourable Babatunde Omotayo,* and other prominent personalities from the region.
Despite the presence of these influential leaders, it is unfortunate that the students of Ise/Orun have continued to experience a lack of meaningful support and developmental initiatives targeted at their welfare and academic growth. Unlike many other local governments within the state, Ise/Orun students currently have no stable union body,no access to bursary schemes, scholarship opportunities, or any special intervention programs aimed at supporting those in higher institutions.
This situation has left many students and young people feeling abandoned and disconnected from the leadership that represents them. The absence of visible youth-focused initiatives has also created the impression that the educational and developmental needs of Ise/Orun students are not receiving the attention they deserve.
We therefore use this medium to respectfully appeal to our political leaders to remember the students and youth of Ise/Orun Local Government.
We urge them to initiate programs such as bursaries, scholarships, educational support schemes, and youth empowerment initiatives that will positively impact the lives and future of young people in the community.
And we remain hopeful that our leaders will heed this sincere call and take immediate steps toward ensuring that the younger generation is not left behind in the journey toward development and progress.
