help other students to be encouraged by the inspirational achievement of
Dada. Ayo will be reportedly ushered into the House to sit among
members for a special recognition. A senior legislative official

motion will be moved to honour the young man, during which members will
speak on Dada’s achievement.”

applaud Dada’s dedication at a time of national “despondency”.

inspirational to the youth, adding that he represents and mirrors the
