Tosin Adeyanju is many things to many people. A youth activist, a youth enthusiast, a youth mobiliser, a youthful entrepreneur . He visionary, he is revolutionary.
But for the past few years, he has become better known as a core, fiery supporter and promoter of Bola Ahmed Tinubu Presidential Project.
The 2023 presidential election has come and gone but one of its unforgettable memorable memories is the incredibly remarkable role played by Adeyanju.
He was in the inner caucus of the Tinubu Support Group ( TSG) which four years ago spearheded the Tinubu Presidential project under the Leadership of Hon. James Faleke. He was a driving force in TSG.
A graduate of Political science with a Master degree in International Affairs and Diplomacy at Ahmadu Bello University Zaria, Adeyanju caught his activist teeth as a student. He was a former student union PRO in ABU and played active roles in the NANS movemen back then.
A comrade of high repute , it was not surprising that he would be a leading voice for power shift to the south and a leading light in the mobilsation for the emergence of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu – first at the All Progressives Congress ( APC) Presidential Primaries and then the 25th July, 2023 presidential election.
Precisely, before the primary election, Adeyanju was the head of TSG Media and head of the Group’s Secretariat.
The TSG platform was dutifully coordinated by its founder, Hon. James Faleke to mobilize Nigerians towards Asiwaju’s candidacy and delegates for his election.
Upon securing the APC Presidential ticket, TSG moved into the campaign mode for the general elections and not surprisingly , Adeyanju was appointed the Secretary of the strategic and critical Directorate for Support Groups Coordination ( North Central) of the Presidential Campaign Council ( PCC).
The Directorate was celebrated for its astute mobilisation strategies which the directirate’s self-funded training, sensitisation and organizing programmes exercise .
But Adeyanju, as a senior aide of the PCC Secrerary, Hon James Faleke, played far mire reaching role at tge PCC Secretariat.
Adeyanju joined other committed critical stakeholders to ensure an overwhelming victory for Asiwaju in the presidential election.
Upon the declaration and pronouncement of Asiwaju, some anti- Asiwaju agitators from the Obidients movement and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) took over the INEC office and some other parts of Abuja in protest against the victory of President-elect Tinubu.
Without hesitation, Adeyanju took up the gauntlet to challenge these anti- democratic forces. He mobilized other Nigerians and members of the Support Groups to the INEC office in Abuja on a solidarity rally to pass a Vote of Confidence on the electoral body for a job well done in conducting the freest and fairest presidential election in the history of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Adeyanju’s Team raised the democratic stake in defending democracy and APC-s hard-earned electoral victory by displacing the so- called Obidients and PDP members from the famous Unity Fountain Abuja which the opposition had used to call for cancellation of the election won by Asiwaju and also calling for interim government.
Adeyanju mobilised his comrades and various political and cultural constituencies to begin a daily sit-out at the Unity Fountain, Abuja.
The daily sit-out not only promoted Nigeria’s unity in diversity, but also brought about religious harmony and tolerance and intellectual national discourses on renewed hope mandate.
With a creative mind, Adeyanju’s team soon turned a sit-out exercise to a festive and celebratory outings filled with funfares and humanitarian gestures.
The unity fountain show climaxed on 29th May, 2023 with a live celebration of the swearing-in of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
As he turned 45th recently, his birthday was celebrated with enthusuasm and endearing goodwill messages in the BAT World.
PCC leaders pay tributes to this remarkable, boisterous stakeholder.
