The saying "we make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give" encapsulates the spirit of generosity, which is exemplified by Otunba Emmanuel Ajisafe Fayose, known as Dome. He is the younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose and a well-known philanthropist, former House of Representatives aspirant, and successful businessman.
In response to the economic challenges following the removal of fuel subsidies, Fayose initiated a program to support motorcycle riders, commonly referred to as "okada" riders, by providing them with free fuel. He believes that this assistance not only benefits the riders but also the wider community by helping to lower transportation fares across the state.
This initiative, which will extend to various local government areas, has already made a positive impact, as the motorcycle riders have reduced their fares as promised. Fayose announced that another round of fuel distribution is scheduled for September and expressed his commitment to further programs aimed at enhancing the state's development and economic viability.
