Barr Kayode Ajulo, A Voice for the Hopeless, Living His Dream

 


 

Out of influence, Lord Dr. Olukayode Abraham Ibrahim Ajulo, in his childhood days vowed to become a lawyer and true to his wish, Kayode has not only become a legal practitioner, but one whose accomplishments have distinguished him among his peers at the bar, even as he's fast assuming status of a household barrister.

 

It is important to note that Ajulo possesses a spirit that harbors disdain for doing things in half measures but religiously holds on to saying that, what is worth doing at all is worth doing well. That explains why he’s passionately committed and gives his all to whatever he sets out to do. His spirit of total commitment and strive for excellence propelled him to the limelight in his early days at the bar, when he stood up for Yoruba by defending OPC Supreme leaders, late Dr Frederick Fasehun and Aare Ona Kakanfo, Iba Gani Adams, against the Federal Government of Nigeria that charged them with treasonable felony.

 

He has since not looked back, rather, he’s continued to move up the ladder in his chosen career.

 

That at the fashionable dude, Ajulo, is growing in leaps and bounds, will amount to saying the obvious as has continued to break barriers in the legal profession, thereby soaring in rating and growing in influence. His quest to see that fairness is accorded all and sundry as a right activist, and as his remarkable exploit at the bar, are quite noticeable. Among recent briefs he’s handled that have continued to fetch him accolades, both on the bench and in the general public, is appearing for the National Assembly against the duo of The President, Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Attorney General of the Federation, in the famous political and constitutional case that bothers on legality of Section 84 (12) of the newly signed electoral acts 2022, saving Bamiteko Adeolu, a condemned teenager from death row in Ekiti Division of Court of Appeal, as well as another case of national interest where a record judgment of reversal of final forfeiture was handed in favor of Ajulo’s client, Hima Boubakar, a Nigerien military contractors and arms dealer, to mention a few.

 

Say the 11th Mayegun Aare Ona Kakanfo, Ajulo, is living his dream and you won’t be far from the truth.

Subsidy Investigations: Our Statutory Role Is Tax Enforcement, Collection, Not Use Of Funds -FIRS

 


The Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) has responded to queries by the Special Adhoc Committee on Petroleum Subsidy Regime tasked to investigate petroleum products subsidy in Nigeria, that its role is purely the collection of revenue for government and not keeping records of how the monies are expended.

Speaking at the Committee sitting, the Executive Chairman, FIRS, Muhammad Nami, who was represented by the FIRS Coordinating Director, Compliance Support Group, Dr. Dick Irri, explained the role of the Service as provided by its Establishment Act was confined to the assessment of taxpayers, collection of taxes, accounting for and enforcement of taxes that were due to the government of the Federation.

“The Service’s statutory functions remains that of assessment, collection, accounting, and enforcement of payment of taxes that are due to the Government of the Federation and any of its agencies;” he explained, “taxes collected by the FIRS are usually shared amongst the three tiers of the government in line with the constitution of the country; and FIRS does not maintain records of what the funds are used for by the three tiers of government. The Service also does not have the power to ask for such records.”

Explaining earlier, the Executive Chairman had stated that the request by the Committee for information on Subsidy payments and releases were not tax related, and thus were not within the statutory powers of the Service to respond to.

The Special Adhoc Committee had written to the FIRS requesting information on Subsidy Payment releases from the Consolidated Revenue Account, Subsidy claims, lodgment of FOREX into the Consolidated Revenue Account by the NNPC, among others.

“The Service holds the Adhoc Committee on Petroleum Products subsidy Regime and other Committees of the National Assembly in high esteem and will always give necessary support to ensure the success of their oversight functions;

“All the tax related information requested on your letter dated 1st July, 2022 has been duly submitted;

“All the 16 items listed on your letter dated 5th August 2022 are not tax related and also are not part of the responsibilities of the Service,” the FIRS Executive Chairman explained.

Apologising for his inability to appear in person, the Executive Chairman stated that his absence was due to other official national engagements outside the Federal Capital Territory.

The Special Ad-Hoc Committee on Petroleum Products Subsidy Regime, chaired by Hon. (Arc) Ibrahim Al-Mustpaha Aliyu was constituted in June 2022 with a mandate to investigate the Petroleum Products Subsidy Regime covering the periods from 2013-2021.

In 2003, Lagos State Government created 37 Local Council Development Areas aimed at advancing grassroot development under the ingenious and sagacious leadership of our leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In realisation of his vision to bring governance closer to the people of the newly created LCDA, Hon.

AJALA ROLE MODEL TO YOUTH

Odi Olowo/Ojuwoye LCDA Chairman, Rasaq Olusola Ajala is one of the youths in the country who have strived and found themselves in political leadership in Nigeria even at a time like this when lots of youth in country are seriously advocating and pushing for change of guard.

A trained journalist and youths in governance advocate, Ajala got involved in politics very early in life that by the age 25 he has already positioned himself for the task ahead and even started making very important and positive impact and changes in the society so much that when the opportunity came for him to take up the task responsibility of moving Odi Olowo/Ojuwoye LCDA forward as the Chairman, he didn’t look back as he just hit the ground running so much that he did not face much opposition when he was eager to be re-elected into office.

This is so because every corner and sector of the LCDA was positively impacted by his government.

ACHIEVEMENT

Ajala’s administration has so far recorded over 60 roads construction even as a local government chairman, he did over 148 boreholes, provided over 50 chairs and 50 desks to all the primary and secondary schools in the LCDA, in fact all the schools in Odi Olowo/Ojuwoye LCDA have received face lift since Ajala came into office.

It must be noted that one of the major challenges that was facing the residents of Odi Olowo/Ojuwoye LCDA and environs before Ajala came into office was water challenges where almost every household spends between the sum of N500 to N1000 each day to buy water for domestic use alone. Haven grown and lived in Odi Olowo/ Ojuwoye himself Ajala knew about this problem facing the residents before hand and quickly sworn into action immediately he came into office by providing borehole water for all the communities in the LCDA, helping families to save about N15,000 to N30,000 every month on water alone.

What this means is that the Odi Olowo Ojuwoye LCDA ably led by Hon. Rasaq Olusola Ajala gives to each household in the LCDA the sum of N15,000 to N30,000 every month by providing them free water alone. This has to a large extend helped to leasing the burden of the residents.

This alone can be best described as impactful leadership in action. Knowing people’s needs and challenges and tackling it headlong.
