2027: FROM PERSONALITY TO PURPOSE — HON. MUSIBAU ADESHINA SANUSI’S RECORD OF SERVICE TAKES CENTRE STAGE IN EGBEDA/ONA-ARA

2027: FROM PERSONALITY TO PURPOSE — HON. MUSIBAU ADESHINA SANUSI’S RECORD OF SERVICE TAKES CENTRE STAGE IN EGBEDA/ONA-ARA

Leadership is often measured not only by what a leader gives to the people, but by the opportunities created for individuals and communities to become more productive, self-reliant and economically empowered.


For Hon. Musibau Adeshina Sanusi, popularly known as SHABA, this philosophy has increasingly become a defining feature of his public service narrative.

As the immediate past Chairman of Ona-Ara Local Government, Sanusi’s tenure has been associated with initiatives focused on grassroots development, education, empowerment and community-oriented interventions. Contemporary reports also identify him as a former Ona-Ara chairman who has expressed interest in representing the Egbeda/Ona-Ara Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives. 

The philosophy attributed to SHABA places emphasis on empowering people with the means to improve their livelihoods rather than relying solely on short-term assistance.

According to accounts of his administration, empowerment programmes, skills-acquisition initiatives and other interventions were designed to provide residents with opportunities to develop economically.

Education has also featured among the reported areas of intervention. A 2026 report stated that desks and benches were distributed to more than 50 schools across Ona-Ara Local Government as part of efforts to improve learning environments.

These interventions, viewed together, form part of a broader narrative around grassroots leadership—one that places capacity building, human development and community infrastructure alongside political representation.


A Record That Deserves Documentation
For supporters of Hon. Musibau Adeshina Sanusi, his time in local government provides a foundation upon which his current political aspirations are being built.

His supporters argue that his administrative antecedents should be properly documented and made available to the public so that residents can examine the projects, programmes and initiatives associated with his tenure.

Recent reports have also highlighted his stated interest in the House of Representatives seat for Egbeda/Ona-Ara, with his proposed agenda reportedly covering effective representation, youth empowerment, education, infrastructure, healthcare and economic opportunities. 

The political conversation around SHABA is therefore increasingly being framed by his supporters around a transition from personality to purpose: from personal accessibility and grassroots relationships to a broader ambition for legislative representation.

His supporters describe him as accessible, approachable and intentional about public service, while positioning his experience at the local-government level as a basis for seeking a larger mandate.

As the 2027 political season approaches, SHABA MEDIA says it will continue publishing a series documenting initiatives and achievements attributed to his tenure as Chairman of Ona-Ara Local Government.

The stated objective is to put the records before the public, provide information about his administrative experience and allow residents to independently assess the record.

The journey from personality to purpose has begun.
