Meet the youngest candidate contesting for state house of Assembly member in Ibadan Oyo state.


Meet this young man contesting for state house of assembly member, Ibadan north constituency 1 in Ibadan Oyo state towards 2019 election under People's Democratic Party (P.D.P).
Who is this young man?

His name is Ismail Damola Fantola, an intelligent young man who have a great ion and ambition in politics.

He is very active in politics and a ed member of people's Democratic Party PDP. According to my research about him, he has a great ion for his community and for his people to allow them enjoy the benefits of government in Oyo state and especially in his constituency if voted in.

Youth are now coming out for political ambition and I think it's a good and welcome development because they still have the brain, fear of God and power to run the government without being greedy or self-centered. Let's this development for the betterment of our great nation.

I will be publishing my recent interview with him where he will point out his ambition for his people in his community (Ibadan north constituency 1) and in Ibadan as a whole.

See some of his pics below

God bless Ibadan,
God bless Oyo state.
God bless Nigeria.

That's what we want, let's (youths) start from somewhere, we will soon get to the Presidential seat.

Still... Some youths will still come here to criticise him.

I'm sure his own looting go these old elfs currently running things.

radical wont let him win

Insha llah i will also contest in Oyo state soon but not under these two devilish parties called APC and PDP.

SUG president strikes my mind

As lautech has refused to resume, i dont blame the guy.
But he should have gone for councillor instead of house member.
Wishing him d best

I could not finish reading. I believe he died of poison after eating Ewedu and Amala combine with Akpu and ofonigbo soup. Too much intake of 7 bottles of cold beer with isiewu. Also later in the evening he took Tiwo and also included kilishi which is disastrous.I need a new supplier..

It's not that it's bad o,but the word gun and it's bullet plus what it can,and what it's done it the past to politicians,i just think that's the begining of wisdom.

I love is courage

how old is he?

wish for yourself what you wishes for others

with the way he's answering questions,his IQ is somehow low. And he sounds like someone that would be very easy to manipulate by Godfathers and ogas at the top. Saying Makinde is your role model alone means you will be loyal to him for life. the guy doesn't sound like he has anything to offer Oyo,he sounds like someone that would get there and loot to pay all the debts on his farmer father's neck and the well wishers he was referring to. I expected a more sound minded youth,this guy is just not mentally sound enough for politics,this is not SUG politics o,politics requires brilliance if you really want to serve your people no matter your age. And you don't criticize anybody directly,you do it collectively because that's how Buhari started too and got there throwing blame games at Jonathan,you should rather get there,do everything you can for your people,be transparent and be far more mature than your age. sorry to say o but that's my opinion.

Yes oh.
Me sef contemplating 2019.

This is encouraging.
Allah will be his strength

Well spoken . I was surprised to hear his mentor. I would have expected him to mention names that changed things for the better and yes saying Mr Makinde alone. E get as e be.

Victory is certain fam
