Fagbenro-Bryon further maintained that, “the journey has been enriched by the support and encouragement from my people, family, friends, associates and colleagues in Lagos, the South West and other zones in Nigeria. Their desire to see me serve this nation is a driving force behind this decision. All politics is local and the APC, well-accepted and trusted in my locality, offers a platform that resonates with the vast majority of my immediate constituency.

“Between September 2022 and February 2023, I served as the Director of Organization for Peter Obi’s presidential campaign, despite not being a registered member of the Labour Party.”

Fagbenro-Byron reiterated that every political party in Nigeria needs to evolve for the betterment of our nation.

He posited that while all political parties need help, he was of a strong belief that his contributions can be most impactful within the APC.
