Rep. Akin Rotimi, Jr., is the House of Representatives’ spokesman and Chairman of the House Committee on Media and Public Affairs. His political journey is deeply rooted in a sense of duty to serve his community and country, inspired by his family’s rich legacy of public service.

From all indications, he is following in the footsteps of his father, who served as a member of the House of Representatives in the Second Republic.

Rotimi, Jr. didn’t always work from within the Nigerian government structures. Earlier in his career, he engaged in philanthropy, focusing on pressing issues in Nigeria and post-conflict African nations. While those efforts provided essential support, he quickly realised that they often offered only temporary relief rather than creating sustainable, long-term change. Activism allowed him to advocate from the outside. Yet, he understood that lasting and systemic reforms could only be achieved by working within government structures, which led him to pursue a path in politics.
