As part of ongoing consultations ahead of the July 12 local government elections in Lagos, the incumbent chairman and candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ojodu LCDA, Hon. Segun Odunmbaku, alongside his running mate, Alhaja Kafaya Layeni paid homage to Oba Hakeem Agbaosi Eweobaja I, the traditional ruler of Aguda Land.
Joining the duo on the visit were the party’s six councillorship candidates, chieftains as well as member of the campaign team with the traditional ruler not only expressing his delight at the visit but unsparing in offering royal blessings for the team.
The visit, it was observed, underscored the campaign’s deference to cultural heritage, traditional institutions and grassroots engagement.
Director General of the Campaign Council, Barr. Olawale Ajala, emphasized that the visit was not only to solicit prayers for electoral success but also to appreciate the unwavering support and wise counsel the traditional rulers have extended to Odunmbaku during his first term in office.
In his remarks, Oba Agbaosi lauded Odunmbaku’s impactful leadership and commended his excellent achievements in office.
He also urged the candidates to emulate the exemplary public service record of Hon. James Abiodun Faleke, member representing Ikeja Federal Constituency.
