Oyo 2027:“Our Realistic Tomorrow” — A Vision for Oyo State with Distinguished Mentions, Says Oyo State APC Gubernatorial Aspirant, Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK).

My book, Our Realistic Tomorrow, is a personal and public commitment to the people of Oyo State. It combines a comprehensive manifesto for the governorship with a selection of my articles written over the years on governance, leadership, and societal progress. The manifesto outlines clear, practical plans for key sectors—education, healthcare, infrastructure, security,

agriculture, economic empowerment, and institutional reform—while the articles offer reflections on the principles that guide my approach. Together, they present a unified vision of what Oyo State can become when leadership is rooted in integrity, focus, and service. This is not a collection of promises but a detailed roadmap drawn from lived experience and careful thought designed to address our challenges and unlock our potential. 

The book is essential reading for anyone who cares about Oyo State and Nigeria's future. It speaks directly to the realities we face; unequal opportunities, infrastructure deficits, and the need for accountable governance, while offering solutions that are realistic and achievable. Whether you are a voter, a student, an entrepreneur, or a community leader, the book provides a clear picture of how governance can be done differently, with policies that serve the people rather than enrich a few. It is a call to action, inviting readers to join the effort to build a state where every citizen has a fair chance to prosper. I encourage everyone to get a copy, available on request through various AKK Volunteers, and internationally through select retailers - so we can discuss and implement these ideas together.

In the book, I pay tribute to individuals whose lives and work have inspired me deeply. I hold these figures in the highest regard for their contributions to leadership, service, and progress:

- Former Governor Dr. Victor Omololu Olunloyo – Condolences paid on his passing.

-Alhaji (Chief) Abdul-Lameed Ajadi – Condolences on his passing.

- Muhammadu Buhari – Former President; condolences on his passing.

- Aare Musulumi Alhaji Daud Makanjuola Akinola DeDamark – Birthday tribute to the Aare Musulumi of Yorubaland, Edo, and Delta States.

- The late Olubadan (Oba Akinloye Owolabi Olakulehin) is mentioned in the context of condolences on his passing and his 90th birthday tribute.

- Birthday Tribute to The Oyo State APC Public Secretary, Alhaji Olawale Sadare.

- Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda – Congratulated on emergence as APC National Chairman.

- Dr. Adewale Kolapo Kareem (AKK) – The author himself; central figure in all articles, described as educator, philanthropist, spiritual leader, and 2027 Oyo APC gubernatorial aspirant.

Among others. 

I present 'Our Realistic Tomorrow' as a document that speaks to everyone, regardless of background, because its principles—fairness, accountability, and service—are universal. While the plans are tailored for Oyo State, they draw from global best practices and can inspire solutions anywhere. The book is an invitation to engage, to critique, and to build together. I urge you to read it, share it, and join the movement for a better Oyo State. Let us turn these ideas into action and ensure that our tomorrow is realistic, achievable, and worthy of our people.
