The mark of true leadership is not found in the noise of political rhetorics but in the silent impact of selfless service.

Hon. Toyin Amuzu has once again demonstrated his deep love for his Egba brothers and sisters by facilitating the registration of business names with the Corporate Affairs Commission for 100 businesses in Abeokuta through the Toyin Amuzu Foundation (TAF).

By helping to formalize these businesses, Hon. Toyin Amuzu is not just giving them a legal identity; he is opening doors to opportunities that will transform their future. These businesses can now access loans, government grants, and corporate partnerships that were previously out of reach.To the beneficiaries of this initiative, this is your opportunity to build something lasting. Hon. Toyin Amuzu has planted the seed; it is now your responsibility to nurture it into a thriving enterprise that will, in turn, create jobs and uplift others.Hon. Toyin Amuzu, I see your heart, and I appreciate your efforts.*This is leadership. This is impact. This is love for the people, not politics.
