Chief Asonja, who currently serves as the Ondo State Coordinator for Tantita Security Services, made his support official via his Facebook handle where he publicly shared the campaign flier of Barrister Ojamomi, identifying him as his favorite aspirant for the position. He described the move as a strategic step to ensure that the constituency is represented by an individual with a proven track record of administrative competence and legal expertise.
Barrister Fade Ojamomi is currently the Special Assistant to the Governor of Ondo State on Intra-Party Affairs. In his current role, he has been credited with fostering unity within the political structure of the state and bridging the gap between various interest groups.
By using his social media platform to project Ojamomi’s candidacy, Chief Asonja emphasized that the constituency requires a representative who understands the complexities of governance and possesses the capacity to advocate for the developmental needs of the people. He noted that Ojamomi’s experience in the executive arm of government, combined with his professional background as a lawyer, makes him the most suitable candidate to protect the interests of Ilaje Constituency 1 in the legislative chamber.
The endorsement from the Tantita security boss is considered significant due to his extensive influence across the riverine communities and his role in the maritime security sector of the Niger Delta. Observers suggest that this public declaration on social media marks the beginning of a major political movement ahead of the 2027 general elections.
As news of the endorsement spreads, supporters of Barrister Ojamomi have expressed confidence that his candidacy will attract broad-based support across the various wards in the constituency. The move sets the stage for a competitive contest as political actors begin to align their interests for the upcoming legislative race in Ondo State.
