"Let me equally acknowledge the wonderful contribution of the coordinator of NEMAPP,  Mr Ajetunmobi and his beautiful wife for their contribution to the development of our state. The wonderful exhibitions of hand made works I saw yesterday convinced me. May God continue to strengthen you. And to my Supervisor for WAPA, u have done a good job,  Well done and God bless you.

"Hopefully by God's grace, Ikorodu North shall adopt this beautiful initiative as an annual event  that would be well planned for, bigger and better in the coming years.

"I have advised and counselled our graduands. I pray may the good God continue to direct their steps to the right path so that they would make good use of that opportunity to better their lot so that Ikorodu North would be proud of a more independent and self sustaining residents in few years to come," Hon Banjo said.
