The continued absence of integrity among some of today’s political class has forced late Orlando Owoh’s guitarist, Austin Omoson to applaud the obvious integrity of Hon. Lukman Orelope, the newly elected member of the Lagos State House of Assembly representing the Alimosho Constituency one of the state. Omoson, fondly called Fada Pilot, stated that Orelope did not just start towing this line of honour as his highly enviable record as Secretary to the Alimosho Local Government Council is still there for all to see.
The dreadlock spotting guitarist disclosed that when he is not on stage, he mixes freely with politicians, thereby knowing them better.
“It was as a result of this that the integrity gist of honourable Orelope filtered into my ears. That was how I became interested in him and eventually had the golden chance to move closer to him with a view to confirm the integrity gist which I actually confirmed and became more interested in him. Hence I am applauding the honourable today as a model of integrity among politicians,” he submitted.
Pilot urged other political office holders to emulate him, so that the poor and disturbing age-long perception of our political class as fraudulent bunch, would change for good.

Hon. Lukman Orelope is not a 'newly elected' member of Lagos State House of Assembly (LAHA). I think reelected would have been better instead of newly elected. He was elected in 2019 and he's returning to LAHA for a 2nd term.
