 ....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In the heart of Oredo, where the pulse of Edo politics beats strongest, Hon. Esosa Iyawe is proving that lawmakers can still shape security outcomes—even without executive powers. His role may not involve commanding troops or dispatching patrols, but his influence in fostering a safer constituency is undeniable.

As a legislator, Iyawe has remained committed to championing motions, engaging stakeholders, and leveraging his office to spotlight the pressing security concerns affecting his constituents. He understands that while security is primarily the duty of the executive, lawmakers play a critical part in advocacy, oversight, and collaboration with relevant agencies.

From regular constituency engagements with security operatives to facilitating better coordination between community leaders and law enforcement, Iyawe has become a dependable bridge for peace and understanding. He has persistently lent his voice to the call for increased federal presence in crime-prone areas, pushing for better infrastructure, surveillance tools, and support for the Nigerian Police and local vigilante outfits.

More importantly, Iyawe has used his platform to encourage youth engagement and social development initiatives—addressing some of the root causes of insecurity. His belief is simple but profound: when the youths are meaningfully engaged, the lure of crime diminishes.

In a time where finger-pointing is easier than solution-seeking, Iyawe has chosen to lead with purpose, pushing policies and partnerships that reflect a commitment to his people’s safety and peace of mind.
