She expressed her delight at yet another display of responsibility, hardwork, diligence and talent, through Dr. Osibogun.
She, however, urged other Nigerians to find inspiration from the new Deputy Mayor, by putting their names in history, and putting the country in a positive image.
Osibogun is currently a Councillor representing Buckingham South on the

As the new Deputy Mayor, he will assist the Town Mayor with council meetings and promoting community focused initiatives; addressing residents concerns, and overseeing the town’s public service departments to ensure they operate effectively.
Other responsibilities of his Office will be assisting the Town Mayor with administrative tasks related to the daily operations of the town council; representing the town at meetings with officials of other government entities; examining and approving the proposed budget; and attending public events in his official capacity.
