Ikorodu Local Government Chairman, Hon Wasiu Adeshina has put together a 3-Day Seminar/Conference organised by the LG to prepare the Wards and LGA's Executives for huge task of effective collaboration between the Party Excos and Public office holders.

Adeshina on Wednesday, November 6, 2019, charged the over three hundred Party Executives to see their positions as an opportunity to serve the All Progressives Congress, APC, and people of Ikorodu LG. Wadesh, as he's fondly called, stated this during his presentation at the Seminar holding at the Ai-Royal Hotels and Suites Ikorodu.

The Chairman told the over 300 Excos to see themselves as equal among other qualified Party loyalists and therefore should be prepared to serve the Party and people of the Local Government and State as a whole.

"It is a great pleasure for me to heartily welcome you all to this 3 Days Seminar, which has been carefully packaged for the political upliftment of our great party-the all progressives Congress(APC), and also to highlight positive methods of harmonising a good relationship between the Stakeholders and our Party,  APC. This seminar will also sensitize us on ways of improving our relationship with the executive and legislative Arms in unison with the party members.

"In the course of the seminar, the people at the grassroots will also be sensitized on the intricacy of modern day democracy while educating the participants that the supremacy of the party is non-negotiable. I would also like to inform you that a training session has been prepared for all the stakeholders  for the purpose of this seminar.

"At this point, I wish to gladly State here that, the good administration of Ikorodu Local Government has been able to positively impact the lives of its citizenry, in the areas of rural and social development, infrastructure, agriculture, health, education among so many others, Adeshina said.

He added, “However, talent can only give you the opportunity and recognition away from your peers but it can’t pave the way for the well being of the society. Talent without character is zero. There are so many unrewarded talents across the world. Your positions as Exco gives you huge opportunity unavailable to the rest of the people. Always place it in your mind that honour and opportunity comes with great responsibility.”

“You must develop working relationship with political structure and public office  holders. Don’t leave the area from where they picked you. You are the ears and eyes of the APC from where you are picked,” former Deputy Governor, Prince Abiodun Ogunleye said.

The Seminar which was organized with the aim of equipping Party Exco without public service background, with the rules and knowledge of All Progressives Congress, APC, will come to an end on Friday
