For clarity of purpose eulogising the life of any person, especially a respected leader who has stood for the common good, is not easy.

Hon Bimbo Daramola , penning down words to capture the essentials of the man who is today seen as one of the brightest spot in the Nigeria’s political milieu is no mean task.

Daramola is the quintessential humble individual who has defied the notion that politicians, especially of the Nigerian variety, can not say the truth. By now Ekiti people and by extension Nigerians have come to identify a fearless character whose words and deeds are not at variance with the hopes and aspirations the men and women of his dear country.

The story of Daramola is the story of courage. His meteoric rise reaffirmed his position as a master tactician in a discipline built on the philosophy of self respect, fair play, hard work and the spirit of give and take.

However it's not just in politics that Daramola, aka (Congressman) has made his mark. Trained at a very young age as an illustrious geologist; his commitment and doggedness as a moulder of the minds of the future has served him well in his present endeavours.

His performance over the years at the House of Representatives has set the bar in governance.

His intrepidity in the face of tough challenges have equally served as inspiration to his peers. As many of them pointed out, it has emboldened them to go about their duties without fear, or favour.

For Daramola, seeing Nigeria rise to greatness is a task that must be accomplished. He has, at every available opportunity, reminded his colleagues and relevant institutions and stakeholders of the need to promote democracy and respect human rights of all. These ideas stem from his belief that strong democracies are more likely to secure peace, deter aggression, expand markets, promote development, combat terrorism and crime, uphold rights of workers, avoid humanitarian crises, protect and improve the global environment, and protect human health.

Bimbo Daramola as a visionary and compassionate leader has often times created positive and inspirational vision of the future and conveying that vision in an engaging manner that attracts committed followers. With a leader like this, there is hope for Nigeria.
