Hon. Taofeek Abimbola Ajilesoro just added another line to his résumé. The federal lawmaker for Ife Constituency in Osun State has been named among the recipients of the Motherland Heroes Award 2026.
Miss Motherland Nigeria Pageant Ltd runs the recognition. Their focus stays consistent year to year: honouring Nigerians whose leadership and community work leave a visible mark, not just a headline.
A letter dated September 10 confirmed the selection. Crown Prince Timmy Abiri, National Director of Miss Motherland Nigeria, signed it himself. The letter tied Ajilesoro’s nomination directly to grassroots development, community empowerment, infrastructure work, and his attention to constituents back home.
The organisers laid out their criteria plainly. Leadership. Service. Community building. Cultural preservation. A demonstrated push toward Nigeria’s advancement. Merit decides who makes the cut, they insist, not connections or clout.
One line from the letter stood out: “Your leadership and dedication to grassroots development, community empowerment, infrastructure advancement and the welfare of your people exemplify the values which the Motherland Heroes Award seeks to celebrate.”
That’s not just ceremonial language. The committee framed the honour as recognition of tangible change, the kind constituents actually feel in their daily lives.
Landmark Towers gets the spotlight again. The award goes into Ajilesoro’s hands, or a representative’s, during the Grand Finale of Miss Motherland Nigeria 2026 at The Grand Junction Luxury Hall, Victoria Island, on Friday, September 18.
Organisers wrapped their message with a hope that Ajilesoro’s leadership keeps pushing development and unity forward, both in his constituency and across the country.

Beyond the House seat, Ajilesoro chairs the Committee on the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure. NASENI’s mandate sits squarely with the kind of infrastructure push the award letter praised him for.
September 18 draws closer. Victoria Island’s guest list keeps growing.
