Mobilise the electorate to vote massively for our party. We must showcase the various landmark achievements of our local governments to win the hearts of voters.”

Abayomi Daramola and Chief Bolanle Olusanya will serve as co-coordinators, while Chief Sunday Aboyade and Fatai Ayoola were named deputy coordinators for Lagos West.

In his response, Babatunde Balogun, who leads the council, expressed gratitude for the confidence reposed in him and assured the party faithful of the team’s readiness to deliver.

“We are fully aware of the enormity of the task before us. But we are equally confident in our collective strength and commitment. We will work with unity and dedication to not only secure victory in the upcoming council elections but also lay a solid foundation for our triumph in the 2027 national polls,” he said.

Oladejo said, “We’re not leaving anything to chance, Our strategy is people-driven. We will be telling real stories of what our councils have achieved and what more is to come.”

The July 12 council polls will be conducted by the Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission and are seen as a litmus test for political parties ahead of the 2027 general elections.
