In his statement, Aroyewun extended his gratitude to key figures instrumental in the establishment of the office, including the Minister for Interior, Hon. Olubunmi Ojo, NIS Comptroller General, Mrs. Carol Wura – Ola Adepoju, Hon. Babajimi Benson representing the Ikorodu Federal Constituency, and Oba Semiudeen Kasaliu, the Adeboruwa of Igbogbo, among other stakeholders.

Aroyewun emphasized the importance of the Passport Office as a symbol of recognition for the Igbogbo Kingdom and underscored the socioeconomic benefits it is poised to bring.

He urged continued cooperation among the residents, highlighting the office as a tangible outcome of collective efforts and a testament to what can be achieved through unity and understanding.

The commissioning of the Igbogbo NIS Passport Office stands as a testament to the power of collaboration, showcasing the positive outcomes that can arise when communities come together for shared development goals.
