Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Thursday reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to delivering more dividends of democracy, as he commissioned several transformative projects in Mushin Local Government Area.
Represented by his Deputy, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, the governor unveiled two major developments: the newly upgraded Abibat Mogaji Market (formerly Mushin Market) and the Senator Ganiyu Olanrewaju Solomon Ultra-Modern Office Complex, which now houses several federal agencies and a radio station.
Sanwo-Olu described the projects as significant steps toward improving the standard of living for Mushin residents, noting that the new office complex would offer easy and convenient access to vital federal services.
“We are truly pleased to be delivering the dividends of democracy to the people of Mushin,” he said. “Residents can now access federal agencies right within their community and carry out official business with ease.”
The governor also praised outgoing Mushin LGA Chairman, Mr. Emmanuel Bamigboye, for his exceptional leadership and dedication to community development. He expressed optimism about the capacity of the newly elected chairman, Mr. Haruna Aruwe, to build on this legacy.
“The incoming chairman has grown within the system and has learned from the best. We expect that he will deliver even more in his tenure,” Sanwo-Olu said. “What Bamigboye has done in four years should be doubled.”
Highlighting the role of the new radio station, the governor noted that it would serve as a valuable tool for public enlightenment and information sharing across Mushin and surrounding areas.
In his remarks, Lagos APC Chairman, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi, urged residents to prepare for the upcoming voter registration exercise ahead of the 2027 general elections.
“Getting your PVC is not just your civic responsibility — it is the gateway to truly enjoying the benefits of good governance,” Ojelabi said.
The day’s events mark a renewed promise of continued infrastructure growth and civic engagement in one of Lagos’ most vibrant communities.
