Billionaire business mogul and Senator- elect for Ondo South, Dr. Jimoh Ibrahim, CFR, has made his first appointment, announcing online publisher of Ondo Events, Mr. Bola Olagbegi, as his Chief of Staff.
Ibrahim, who just flew into the country from his short vacation in America, London and Dubai, connected Abuja where he attended his party’s (the All Progressives Congress’) crucial stakeholders’ meeting before returning to his Igbotako country home over the weekend.
On Monday morning, Ibrahim, the founder of University of Fortune, Igbotako pronounced Olagbegi as his Chief of Staff, noting that he worked assiduously for his victory at the polls and deserved the appointment.
He said ‘Bola’, as he is fondly called, had followed up on his trail long before he even showed up on the political scene to contest the Senate seat, describing him as a hardworking news media entrepreneur, who had used his platform, Ondo Events, to project the brand image of Ondo State at different times, and had not looked back on the ‘Aseyori’ project since it was kick-started.
Ibrahim congratulated the newly appointed Chief of Staff, urging him to see his appointment as a reward for loyalty and his unalloyed support for his principal as well as the All Progressives Congress through thick and thin.
Olagbegi, accepting the offer, thanked his benefactor and political leader, Araba of Ikaleland, Dr. Ibrahim, CFR, for counting him worthy of the noble appointment, stressing that it would offer him a new opportunity to learn the art of philanthropy, political and social engineering and responsive bond to “the social contract” under the master strategist himself, promising the Senator- elect his 100 per cent, unwavering and overwhelming loyalty.
