We Must Make Laws For Enabling Environment, Says Comr Lebile

Igbokoda - In his bid to provide better representation for the people of Ilaje Constituency II at the Ondo State House of Assembly, Comrade Emmanuel Lebile has declared to run on the platform of Labour Party (LP) for a seat at the parliament.

Comrade Lebile who asserted that the Constituency is poorly represented by those sent there in time past, made the declaration in a Chat With our correspondent recently in Igbokoda, the administrative Headquarters of Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo state.

It would be recalled that Lebile  recently jettisoned his Local Government chairmanship ambition over Labour Party's lack of faith in the ability of Ondo State Independent Electoral Commission (ODSIEC) to conduct credible local government polls.

"I believe good legislation will put our people on the best pedestal for good governance. We must make laws that will create enabling environment for a new Ilaje", He said.

Comrade Lebile also known as 'The Reformer' enjoined the people of the area to expect total commitment to service when voted into office, adding as an advocate of a new Ilaje he has decided to run.

"They should expect legislations that will turn our lives around, policies that will engender human capacity building and give voice to the mass of Ilaje people", He assured
