A USA-based businessman, Mr. Olufemi Awoseye has described Rt. Hon. James Abiodun Faleke as the best man for the position of the Chief of Staff to the President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Mr. Awoseye who is a member of the PCC of the Diaspora Committee described in a press statement available to Lagos Panorama on Sunday said Hon. Faleke is a political guru who has made his mark in the political space of Ikeja, Lagos state and Nigeria at large.
Hon. Faleke who started as an Executive Secretary in 2003 Ojodu LCDA in Lagos later went on to become a two-term chairman of the LCDA and in 2011 was duly elected by the good people of Ikeja federal constituency to become their representative at the lower chamber of the National Assembly. From 2011 till date, he has held the position of chairman of different committees in the green chamber and he’s currently the chairman of, the House Committee on Finance.
The president of Crown Foundation, Mr. OLUFEMI AWOSEYE described Hon. Faleke as a good manager of men and resources and this leadership quality made him the southwest coordinator of Buhari/Osinbajo campaign in 2014 which organised the record-breaking fitness walk for the campaign back then which featured Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu who was the major backer of the ticket in 2014/2015 and victory was achieved. This same leadership quality of a good manager of men and resources positioned him to be the secretary of the PCC where he ran the day-to-day activities of the campaign of Tinubu/Shettima excellently and managed thousands of people and support groups across the nation and thereby leading to the resounding victory at the polls.
Awoseye went further to describe Faleke as a master strategist who knows and what to put together to achieve success at any given assignment.
Putting all these together, suffice to say that Faleke with his leadership skills and acumen is fit and prepared with his antecedents and successes at different assignments to take on the exalted office of the Chief of staff to the president. Hon. Faleke has paid his dues through hard work, loyalty, consistency, honesty and perseverance and as the saying goes; the reward for hard work is more work.
