EKYN Calls on Representatives to Speak Up as Ekiti Communities Face Severe Neglect

The Ekiti Kwara Youth Navigators (EKYN) expresses deep concern over the growing level of neglect across our communities, which are increasingly turning into deserted and abandoned spaces due to lack of government attention. This is not the time for us to fold our arms. While other communities in Ekiti are raising their voices, it is critical that our own representatives also speak up at the national level about the alarming situation facing our people. EKYN hereby charges Hon. Ashiru, Hon. Ajulo, Hon. Gani, and the Local Government Chairman to urgently intervene, champion the concerns of our communities, and ensure that development efforts reach the grassroots. Our people deserve responsive leadership, immediate action, and sustained advocacy that reflects the true needs of the communities they represent. Signed: Ekiti Kwara Youth Navigators
