During his time in the legislature, he was widely respected for his advocacy on youth empowerment, education, healthcare access, and infrastructure development.
His passion for human capital development and digital inclusion, according to Abiru, aligns perfectly with the strategic vision of Galaxy Backbone, an institution mandated to provide digital infrastructure and shared services to support government operations and the broader Nigerian economy.

He also expressed optimism that the new executive director would bring a renewed focus to user experience and stakeholder engagement in Nigeria’s digital service landscape, helping to bridge gaps between public institutions and the citizens they serve.
In conclusion, Senator Abiru wished Hon. Olulade a successful and impactful tenure.
“I pray for wisdom, strength, and clarity of purpose as he undertakes this important national assignment. The future of our digital economy depends on visionary leaders who can combine strategy with empathy and I believe Hon. Olulade is well prepared for the task.”
