Expression of Interest to Contest for the Senate, Ondo Central Senatorial District

I, Dr. Taiwo Fasoranti, hereby formally express my interest to contest for the position of Senator representing the good people of Ondo Central Senatorial District.

This decision is borne out of a deep sense of responsibility, a lifelong commitment to public service and an unwavering belief in the immense potential of our people.

Having spent over three decades serving humanity in the medical profession, I have come to understand that true leadership is anchored on compassion, discipline, and the ability to respond to the real needs of the people.

My journey in public service, including my years at State house medical centre, Abuja where i rose to the directorate cadre before retiring in 2024, as well as my experience in health sector administration, and recently as Secretary to the Ondo State Government has equipped me with valuable insights into governance, policy implementation and service delivery.

These experiences have strengthened my capacity to contribute meaningfully to national development, while ensuring that the voices of Ondo Central are effectively represented.

I am motivated by the desire to promote people-centric representation and to contribute to the consolidation of the dividends of democracy across our communities. I believe that governance must be practical, inclusive, and impactful touching lives in tangible ways and creating opportunities for growth and development.

Beyond public service, my engagements in humanitarian and professional initiatives have further reinforced my commitment to improving lives, strengthening systems, and building sustainable structures that benefit society. I remain guided by values of humility, integrity, and dedication; principles that have shaped my personal and professional life.

As I step forward in this journey, I do so with a clear vision: to provide purposeful representation, to listen to the aspirations of our people, and to translate those aspirations into meaningful action at the national level.

I humbly seek the support, trust, and prayers of the good people of Ondo West, Ondo East, Ifedore, Akure South, Akure North, and Idanre; making up the Ondo Central Senatorial District, as we work together towards a future of shared progress and prosperity.

Fasoranti for the people, Fasoranti for progress.

With me, our voice becomes action.

Dr. Taiwo Fasoranti.
