Speaking at the commissioning of the palace recently, the lawmaker explained that the gesture was aimed at raising the status of Olugbon stool and show his commitment to the welfare of the people that elected him to represent them at the lower chamber of the National Assembly.

He added that the gesture was also aimed at motivating the people and giving them a sense of belonging.

In his response, the Olugbon of Ile-Igbon in Lagelu local Government Area of Oyo State, Alhaji Kelani Oloyede, expressed the appreciation of the people of the community to the lawmaker.

The traditional ruler described Honourable Olatoye as a resilient person and silent achiever, who has demonstrated his commitment to the welfare of the downtrodden, stressing that they would continue to give his political career their support.
