It’s Youths O’clock in Ifako Ijaiy, And The Cap Perfectly Fits Hon. Temitope Akinyemi

By Arthur Richard

In Ifako Ijaiye, the political time zone has shifted. The old guard still keeps its calendar, but the streets are running on a new hour, “Youths O’clock.” It’s not just a slogan. It’s a generational change, demand for access, accountability, and audacity. And in every junction from Ogba to Iju-Ishaga, Fagba to Ijaiye, one name keeps ringing in people's minds, pop in up in every street group discussion, WhatsApp statuses, and street-corner debates: Hon. Temitope Akinyemi. The cap, they say, fits him perfectly.

The moment has arrived. The Ifako Ijaiye is saying,, “Mek Temitope Akinyemi Go For Us This Time. We Want To Check Something.”

Temitope Akinyemi isn’t a stranger to Ifako Ijaiye’s political terrain. He's a grassroots mobilizer, youth advocate, and community development strategist, he has spent years doing the unglamorous work, ward meetings in the rain, school renovations without ribbon-cutting, and cameras on.

Known simply as “Temitope Akinyem” to market women and artisans, his resumé reads like a field report: Youth leader, party stalwart, and convener of multiple empowerment outreaches. He didn’t arrive by helicopter. He walked every street in Ifako Ijaiye in the time of need without discrimination of religion, tribe, or political affiliation.

Mek Temitope Akinyemi Go For Us This Time Around. We Want To Check Something. The phrase started as youth banter at Fagba and went viral across Ifako Ijaiye wards.

It’s part challenge, part endorsement. Let Temitope Akinyemi represent us this time, We want to test what youth leadership can do.”

In Ifako Ijaiye where young people are about 75% of the population but less than 2% of elective offices, the slogan captured a mood. It’s not disrespect to elders. It’s a demand for succession, inclusion with substance.

Akinyemi’s campaign blueprint reads like a youth manifesto: digitized primary healthcare centers, tech hubs in each ward to train our youths in coding, design, and digital marketing, transparent representation at Alausa and “street-to-skill” programs that will convert okada riders and mark

I think VDM should not bother returning to this blue app again because everywhere is peaceful except the 3sum they're using to distract us. No more online brouhaha.
