By Damilola Kushimo

The chairmanship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Isolo LCDA, Hon. Adebayo Olasoju has assured Isolo residents of improved infrastructures and various empowerment programmes when elected.

He said he has been strategising on the viable approaches to consolidate on some of the projects executed by his predecessor, the outgoing council chairman, Hon. Shamsudeen Olaleye (Shammeh), and bring onboard new projects that would benefit every resident.

Olasoju, the incumbent vice-chairman and the secretary of Lagos State Association of Council of Vice-Chairmen (LASACVIC), explained that he knows the infrastructural deficit in the council area, pledging that his administration will endeavour to live up to the expectations of all and sundry on all fronts of societal development, adding that he will run an all-inclusive government.

He emphasised that improved healthcare facilities, road infrastructure, empowerment for women and youths will be the priority of his administration while the menace of youth restlessness and cultism will be dealt with.

He also explained that he will facilitate the intervention of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in the community to train and empower the youths in various vocations and make soft loans available to women.

Olasoju further promised to bring out the best in the councillors he will be working with and work closely with leaders and elders in the community on various needs in their respective communities.

Commenting on his emergence as the party’s flag bearer which some of his co-contestants and groups are still aggrieved about, he said he has extended hands of fellowship to every one of them as well as leaders and stakeholders in the party, hoping to enjoy their support.

He appealed to all party leaders and members to work for the success of the party in the forthcoming council election for the benefit of all.
