Agege Local Government Area is a suburb and local government area in the Ikeja Division of Lagos State, Nigeria.
The Local Government is pride as one of the most populated and desirable values to political actors of the state.: As of 2006, the population of Agege was approximately 459,939, although a 2022 estimate puts it at 683,600.
Agege Local Government strength is stoic to a reliable Economy, it has a dynamic economy with vibrant markets like the Abattoir meat market and Alade market, offering diverse commodities. The area was once a hub for the kola nut trade and housed the Colonial farm settlement with the Office of the Assistant District Officer.
Aside from that, the link road networks and recent *urbanisation* taking place need a vibrant and articulated personality to lead the generation to the desirable social economy destination.
Therefore, Agege, a longstanding Lagos local government, stands at a crossroads, poised for a new dawn. Hon. Taiwo Olasunkanmi Samuel (TOS), a grassroots leader with a remarkable background in education, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy, is vying for the chairmanship and undisputable answer to the missing gap.
His SAMDOL Private School, a testament to his commitment to affordable quality education, showcases his dedication to community upliftment.
As convener of the Agege Renewed Hope Movement, TOS champions the needs of the voiceless. His five-point agenda focuses on economic empowerment, quality education, community development, improved healthcare, and transparent governance.
His deep-rooted connection to Agege, witnessing its transformation firsthand, fuels his desire to lead the LGA towards further progress.
Hon. Taiwo Olasunkanmi Samuel (TOS) has made a positive impact in Agege through his various initiatives, such as:
1. *Education*: Founding SAMDOL Private School, providing quality education to underprivileged children.
2. *Community development*: Convener of Agege Renewed Hope Movement, promoting unity, peace, and development.
3. *Economic empowerment*: Plans to stimulate MSMEs, create jobs, and facilitate economic growth.
As a catalyst for social change, TOS’s efforts could bring about significant benefits to the community, including:
1. *Improved education*: Increased access to quality education, leading to a more educated and skilled population.
2. *Economic growth*: Job creation, entrepreneurship, and economic stimulation can improve living standards.
3. *Community cohesion*: Promoting unity, peace, and social services can foster a sense of community and cooperation.
If TOS’s initiatives are successful, they could have a lasting impact on Agege’s development and serve as a model for other communities.
As July approaches, TOS should be a worry to political aspirants in the race, but whatever it is, the primary elections of the Ruling political party APC should be a foregone conclusion as his track record is unparalleled, incomparable and unsurmountable.
With his impressive track record and comprehensive plan, TOS presents a compelling vision for Agege’s future, urging the community to support his candidacy.
