man that is presently disturbed with the way and manner the Nigerian society
has been speckled is property development expert, Engineer Kayode Idowu.
The East London trained software testing
engineer who invested big in the Nigerian real estate and oil and gas sector is
totally disillusioned with the way and manner the government of the day has
failed in her responsibility to give Nigerian people befitting governance hence
his desire to take the mantle and lead as Nigerian president.
“I want Nigerians to be able to feed
three times daily. The moment we achieve that, Nigeria has become a full blown
democratically viable country. Within my first four years in power, people will
not cry about food and families will not count food as one of their problems
any longer”
Kayode Idowu who was among 20
Nigerians given meritorious awards during a Women Empowerment and Merit
Award ceremony organized by the All
Progressive Congress Ojokoro Women Chapter under the distinguished
leadership of Chief (Mrs.) Basirat
Olayinka Ojugbele on Sunday November 16th in Lagos said ‘the need for government to start seeing
itself as being responsible for the fortune and misfortune of the people is of
paramount concern as no government can claim credibility without deriving its
source from the people that appointed it”

Director of Sideview Energy, an oil
and gas firm and MC Bolton Ltd, a property development company
with head quarters in Lekki, Lagos South West Nigeria was honored by the
Ojokoro Women under the All People’s Congress (APC) for his meritorious gesture
in the area of youth empowerment and poverty eradication. Speaking to asabeafrika after receiving his award Engineer Idowu who is equally famous in
the Lekki area of Lagos Island for being Music icon, David Adeleke aka Davido’s developer said he felt honored
and nearly moved to tears for such a honor bestowed upon him within a short
time of establishing his business in Nigeria “When I came into Nigeria couple
of years back, my intention was to create a visible employment system that will
add value and take the leak off government in terms of giving jobs to the mass
of youth and closing the wide gap of unemployment in Nigeria, today with MC Bolton our property firm and Sideview Energy our oil and gas firm we
could say we have been able to contribute minimally to closing up the gap of
youth unemployment. However what baffles me is that some people are watching us
hence the commendation through this award. I am much honored and as well
humbled”

Giving
a word of wisdom to the over 100 beneficiaries of the Ojokoro APC Woman Leader,
Chief (Mrs.) Basirat Olayinka Ojugbele’s empowerment grant, Engineer Idowu urged the lucky beneficiaries to spend the money
judiciously and establish their businesses in no long time “They should not see
the grant as a meal ticket for fast food but should use it judiciously to
establish themselves and move to the next level. It is not all the time that
you find such opportunities where people give free empowerment programs and
back it up with funds; I think this one is a rare gesture and I want the
benefactors to treat it as a rare opportunity to grow big. Invest the money
wisely, don’t take it to a fast food eatery but utilize it wisely and become a
success story”

Speaking
on his award, Engineer Idowu who has
worked with several companies in the United Kingdom as a software testing
engineer before coming back home seven years ago to invest in fatherland said
the honor will make him work harder to create more opportunities for young
people to be engaged and delivered from the circle of poverty.

On
what his biggest ambition looks like, Idowu
told asabeafrika that he would like
to become the president of the federal republic of Nigeria “My greatest ambition is to lead this
country, take note I said ‘lead’ not ‘rule’. I want to become the president of
the Federal Republic of Nigeria. I want to take this country out of lack and
poverty. I want to give Nigeria back to Nigerians because right now Nigeria is
in the hands of a few cabals. I have the formula to change the way and face of
