ADEMILUYI AYODELE JOSEPH, Member Ekiti Youth Parliament representing Aiyekire / Gbonyin Constituency.
From an early age, Ademiluyi Ayodele Joseph developed a passion for leadership and community service, which has shaped my educational and professional journey. As a youth leader, I have committed myself to promoting positive change in my community, especially in the areas of education, youth empowerment, and civic engagement.
Motivated by the desire for academics and general welfare, I enrolled for Bachelor of Education in Social Studies at the Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti. While at the university, my leadership journey took off as I actively participated in student unionism and various youth organizations. I served as the Welfare Director of the Federation of Ekiti State Students Union (EKSU Chapter), where I addressed the welfare concerns of students, ensuring their voices were heard and their needs were met. Also, I served as the National Secretary of the Federation of Ekiti State Students Union (FESSU). In addition to this, I served as the Public Relations Officer of the Federation of Aisegba Students Union, General Secretary of the same student union, and Public Relations Officer of the National Association of Gbonyin Students Union (NAGSU).
During my National Youth Service in Kwandare, Nassarawa. I actively participated in HIV/AIDS awareness programs, and I served as the Public Relations Officer of my NYSC Community Development Service (CDS) Group.
My passion for youth empowerment and community development led me to the Ekiti Youth Parliament (EYP), where I represented the vibrant constituency of Gbonyin/Aiyekire and also earned me an in-parliament leadership position as the Ekiti South Caucus leader. In this capacity, I engaged political stakeholders within Gbonyin, advocating for the appointment of youths in leadership positions at the grassroot and this birth the appointment of the Special Assistant on Youth and Student Affairs in Aiyekire Local Government, a great step to ensure youth targeted involvement in the local governance.
Being a strong advocate of education as a way of transforming societies, I organised an inter-secondary school’s debate competition among public secondary schools in Aiyekire and Gbonyin constituencies where winners of the competition were awarded mouthwatering prizes within my capability. This initiative not only encouraged the students to engage their brains through constructive problem solving but also understood the essence of education in shaping the future of the community. In addition, I distributed writing notebooks to selected secondary school students in the constituency and also led a campaign against drug abuse among the youth’s raising awareness about the dangers of substance abuse.
My leadership journey is the culmination of my commitment to youths, our community, and politics.
