It was fun and celebration galore as Nigerian entrepreneur and prominent media strategist Hon. Paul Kehinde Bankole marked his birthday on Thursday, July 25.
The gathering united his friends, associates and political allies who came together to honour the Ada-born leader from Boripe Local Government Area of Osun State.
Known for his unwavering commitment to community service and youth empowerment, Bankole seized the occasion to not only celebrate another year, but to rededicate himself to public service and grassroots growth.
A Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) graduate prides himself on being a student activist turned development-driven leader.
Bankole contested for the Ifelodun/Boripe/Odo-Otin Federal Constituency seat in the 2023 general polls, emerging as a vibrant voice for youth inclusion in governance.
Beyond politics, Hon. Bankole founded Avalanche Ignited Ltd, a fast-rising media and creative agency. He also leads various youth-focused ventures, including the Avalanche Creative Academy and Avalanche Lounge & Restaurant – programmes designed to improve local entrepreneurship, capacity building, and job creation.
Speaking during his birthday celebration, he appreciated his Creator and everyone else who has supported his journey thus far, vowing to keep fighting to develop communities in Osun and beyond.
“Each birthday is not just a milestone but a reminder to serve with greater purpose. I remain committed to empowering the youth, creating opportunities, and championing development that touches lives at the grassroots,” he said.
Widely described as a link between the younger Nigerians and the current leadership, Hon. Kehinde Bankole keeps inspiring a fresh wave of civic responsibility and innovation across Osun State.
