More than 2,000 households in Modakeke have received food items and financial assistance from the Otunba Bobagunwa Foundation as the organisation extended its humanitarian outreach across the community ahead of the August 15, 2026 Osun State governorship election.
The intervention, led by the foundation’s founder, Otunba Kazeem Olayemi Odeyeyiwa, covered all 87 units in Modakeke and attracted APC leaders, community stakeholders and party supporters.
The organisers said the programme was aimed at providing support to residents while strengthening grassroots engagement and mobilisation for the APC governorship candidates, Asiwaju Munirudeen Bola Oyebamiji (AMBO) and Engr. Benjamin Kayode Adereti.
Residents who benefited from the distribution expressed appreciation for the gesture, describing the assistance as timely and helpful to households facing economic pressures.
Some community leaders and APC supporters also commended the foundation, saying the intervention had reinforced their confidence in the party’s candidates.
