THE MAN FOR THE TOP JOB IN THE 16TH COUNCILMATIC DISTRCT OF THE BOROUGH OF THE BRONX, NEW YORK
Dr. Bola Omotosho
On Tuesday, May 14, 2013, the United African Coalition; a coalition of African immigrants and organizations that encourages and strengthens civic participation among African immigrants who aspire to run for political office at all levels of government in the United States wishes to invite you to a press advisory session to be held from 11-12 at 161st and Grand Concourse.
After a highly interactive series of Community Town Hall caucuses in which four interested African candidates from the 16th New York City Council District presented their platforms, agenda and vision for the District under contest, the UAC in its collective wisdom is hereby publicly endorsing Dr. Bola Omotosho.
Dr. Omotosho has been a resident of the Bronx for 20 years. His profile is emblematic of the politics of service that the 16th Council District currently requires. A strong sense of dignity and work ethic, coupled with humility while working across diverse aisles of community fabric, integration of faith-based perspectives, critical mindset to political and corporate responsiveness regarding the plight of communities in underserved constituencies are of the attributes that constitute Dr. Omotosho mantra of leadership.
His invaluable leadership has indispensably been an asset to Community Board 5, public safety and gun control, eco-friendly initiatives, enhancing parent, teacher and child partnerships in education, immigration advocacy, environmental cleanliness, accessing senior citizens services and care, sexual and drug abuse prevention and being the voice for the voiceless in the areas such as housing among other things.
As the African immigrant communities, and all people of Africa origin, including the Black Americans, Caribbean, South America and Canada, we are inviting you to join us in this unprecedented quest to stand with Dr. Bola Omotosho in affirming his candidacy for New York City Council Member for District 16 in the Bronx.
The gathering starts at 11 am and ends at 12 noon. The general public, together with the credentialed press are requested to assemble on the steps of the Bronx Court House located on 161st and Grand Concourse in the Bronx. Please direct all press enquiries to Bukola Shonuga at 212-470-41138.
