Today, I celebrate a remarkable man whose life embodies purpose, passion, and service. He is a multidimensional and high ranking entrepreneur.
Hon. Oluwaseun Remi Adeyinka, fondly known as Seun Alata. As he marks another year of life, it is only fitting to reflect on his impact, achievements, and continued legacy in Ogbomoso and the broader Nigerian society.
Seun Alata is not just a name; it is a brand synonymous with enterprise and innovation. A seasoned businessman, Hon. Adeyinka has made a lasting impression in multiple sectors, with his entrepreneurial influence reaching far beyond the borders of Ogbomoso. He is the Chairman of Alata Milk and Honey, a growing chain of eateries that has become a household name in Oyo State, offering quality food services with a touch of excellence.
His business acumen extends into agriculture, where he plays an active role as a farmer, contributing to local food production and employment. Through his ventures, he has continued to provide job opportunities for many, particularly youths, affirming his belief in economic empowerment as a tool for sustainable development.
Hon. Oluwaseun Remi Adeyinka’s journey in politics is a testament to his enduring commitment to service. As the Caretaker Chairman of Ogbomoso Central LCDA, he left behind a record of effective leadership, grassroots engagement, and developmental initiatives. His time in office was marked by a hands-on approach to governance, emphasizing accessibility, transparency, and community development.
In 2019, he took a bold step in furthering his political career by contesting for the Oyo State House of Assembly to represent Ogbomoso North State Constituency on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Though he narrowly lost to Hon. Wumi Oladeji, his campaign galvanized widespread support and demonstrated his popularity and credibility among the people. It was a race that reinforced his relevance and influence in the political landscape of Oyo State.
Beyond politics and business, Hon. Seun Alata is widely regarded as a philanthropist with a large heart. His consistent support for the less privileged, youth empowerment programs, and community-based initiatives have earned him accolades and admiration from all corners. He is often seen contributing to educational causes, healthcare outreaches, and poverty alleviation efforts. His approach to philanthropy is not one of showmanship, but of deep empathy and quiet commitment to uplifting lives.
What makes Hon. Oluwaseun Remi Adeyinka truly special is his deep-rooted connection with the people. He is approachable, humble, and ever willing to listen. Whether in the corridors of power or walking through the streets of Ogbomoso, he remains grounded and accessible. His nickname, Seun Alata, reflects his origins and relatability, representing a man who has risen from the grassroots but never lost touch with his roots.
As he adds another year, friends, family, political associates, business partners, and well-wishers from near and far join in celebrating a man who continues to give his best to humanity. Hon. Oluwaseun Remi Adeyinka’s life is a source of inspiration to many — a blend of courage, compassion, creativity, and commitment.
May the year ahead bring him greater heights, abundant blessings, and renewed strength to keep building lives and transforming communities.
Happy Birthday to the distinguished Hon. Seun Alata, a man of many parts, a leader of the people, and a shining star of Ogbomoso!
