On recent national impact, "though as Legislators, we have made our contributions to the National Covers, I cannot do without extending my helping hands to my immediate constituents" Taiwo said.

 "I definitely align  and feel  the pains of my people and this token which is to be distributed among my constituents is to demonstrate my reassurance and solidarity that I care and will still continue to care for them all".

"Much appreciation goes to my constituents for their cooperation with the state and federal government's directives on every instruction  given to curb the spread of Coronavirus pandemic in Oyo State and Nigeria at large".

"Let's continue washing our hands regularly with soap and water, maintain social distancing, stay safe as we all continue in praying to God Almighty for divine intervention".
"I pray we will not be a victim of Covid-19 in Jesus name".Taiwo concluded
