Owolabi Falana, a bridge-builder as APC National Youth Leader

There’s no shadow of doubt in the minds of many that the All Progressives Congress (APC) political party needs to build the bridge between the party handlers and the youths, especially with the not too pleasant activities of the federal and some state governments vis-a-vis the reactions of the Nigerian youths in recent past.

Let’s be reminded that the youths dominate the larger percentage of the active electorates. As 2023 approaches, there’s an obvious need to bring on board a notable youth with needful capacity, that understands the yearnings, position and language of the youths, if the party means business in the forthcoming election.

A name hasn’t stopped resurfacing from different perspectives – Comr. Owolabi Jamiu Falana. Investigation reveals he’s the bridge-builder that the party needs, someone who the youth can trust and will be advantageous for APC, if he occupies the office of the National Youth Leader.

Born into the Falana Family in Palm Avenue, Mushin Lagos; Owolabi Jamiu Falana is a confident, articulate and multi-faceted Public Manager and Entrepreneur. Since 2016, he has been a Public Policy Strategist with TVC News, led different youth groups in the last 10 years and participated in several policy dialogues across Nigeria and Europe. His passion for social development, youth empowerment, making a tangible difference in the community and resolving people’s problem makes him the ideal candidate for a demanding position in politics and government.

Owolabi has a first class degree in Economic Cybernetics from the Kharkiv National University of Radio-electronics Ukraine and is an Alumnus of the FATE Foundation Entrepreneurs Program.

In the last decade, he has held key roles in various organizations such as Administrative Manager at Kenako Ukraine, European Regional Representative for STUNTS Group LLC, Business Development Manager at Pentagon Real Estates, Marketing Manager at Wealthteam Properties Ltd., among others.

Owolabi is a hands-on and practical youth leader who has participated actively in not just campaigning for the victory of the APC in several elections; he also leads thousands of PVC-holding youths across Lagos state.

On various occassions, for several years, records shows that he has and is still working hard for the interest of the youths, either for gainful employments or for social engagements; he is widely known as the bridge-builder.

Becoming the next National Youth Leader of the APC will further strengthen his resolve in this regard not only to reposition the Progressive Youths but to unleash their potentials.
