“Dada Olusegun is a hero and dogged fighter for the youths of the All Progressive Congress.”

“Dada’s passion and words are oxygen, through that, many people find a reason to live and hope for better days.
“His continuous preaching of a better party administration to accommodate youth interest comes with a re-igniting flame that must keep burning for the sustainability of our great party and its tenets.
“As a freedom fighter , Dada Olusegun name and physicality scares the oppressors and pharaoh of ages. Aside from his persistence and can-do spirit, he is, to put it concisely: the textbook example of hard work and tenacity. A workaholic.
“He’s intellectually stimulating and has the gift of the gab. He wows his audience with his inspiring, lively, and insightful presentation.”
