<\/p>\nIn a strong demonstration of continuity and renewed purpose, Senior Comrade Lasisi Ayinde Akinsanya, Executive Chairman of the Igando-Ikotun Local Council Development Area (LCDA), has begun his second term with decisive action and visible results.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The overwhelming mandate he earned at the polls reflects residents\u2019 confidence in his leadership\u2014trust built on a track record of inclusive governance, infrastructure renewal and enhanced service delivery throughout his first term.<\/p>\n
Building on this foundation, and with a fresh mandate aligned to the Greater Lagos Vision, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu”s THEMES+ Agenda and the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda, the Akinsanya administration is steering local initiatives toward broader developmental goals. The central philosophy remains clear: ensure sustainable growth, strengthen accountability, and ultimately leave no community behind.<\/p>\n
Akinsanya\u2019s second term has quickly prioritized infrastructure upgrades across the LCDA. To begin with, a series of road and drainage projects are already underway, including the 1.3-kilometre Lafunke Street reconstruction in Ijegun with dual-side drainage, and the rehabilitation of Olanrewaju\/Rabiat Akinsanya Street in Egan to ease mobility and connectivity.<\/p>\n
In addition, further rehabilitation works are ongoing on Muri Olosunde\/Fatimo Street, Ikotun; Irepodun\/Anioluwapo Street, Igando; Adeotan Street, Ikotun; Chris Bee Street, Igando; Independence Way, Igando; Itoki Street, Ikotun; Prince Adeyemi Street, Ikotun; and Old Egan Road, Akesan.<\/p>\n
Simultaneously, the LCDA Secretariat in Ikotun is receiving a major facelift, while all Primary Health Centres (PHCs)\u2014in Igando, Ikotun, Egan, Abaranje, Ijegun, Iseri-Oshun, Obadore and Isuti\u2014are undergoing comprehensive rehabilitation to strengthen healthcare delivery.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, a significant intervention was the installation of a 500KVA transformer for the Santa Maria community in Egan, restoring electricity after a prolonged blackout and delivering major relief to residents.<\/p>\n
The administration has continued to promote participatory governance by deepening engagement with Community Development Associations (CDAs), Community Development Committees (CDCs) and traditional institutions.<\/p>\n
To reinforce this commitment, the inauguration of the Boundary Adjustment Committee on October 30 underscores the council”s proactive approach to peaceful coexistence and conflict management.<\/p>\n
Beyond infrastructure, the Akinsanya administration has also advanced its healthcare agenda. The LCDA flagged off the 2025 Novel Oral Polio Immunization campaign and facilitated a free mammogram exercise on October 9 as part of its cancer-awareness programme. A strategic partnership with Lions Club International further provided free eye screenings and corrective glasses to residents.<\/p>\n
Environmental safety has remained his priority. A strengthened sanitation monitoring exercise commenced on October 10, while routine fumigation of PHCs and council offices continues to maintain a cleaner and safer environment.<\/p>\n
Akinsanya’s administration has likewise sustained investments in education and youth development. A spelling-bee competition was organized to enhance literacy among schoolchildren, while free GCE forms were distributed to support out-of-school youth seeking academic advancement.<\/p>\n
It was in the same vein, interactive sessions held with head teachers demonstrated a continued commitment to improving educational standards. Vocational training and empowerment programmes also remain central to the administration”s youth-focused agenda.<\/p>\n
Culturally, the LCDA celebrated the Yoruba Cultural Day, reinforcing communal identity and pride. To strengthen civic participation, the council launched an intensive drive promoting continuous voter registration to combat voter apathy.<\/p>\n
Looking ahead, the 2026 Budget Stakeholders Meeting has been scheduled to deepen transparency and encourage wider citizen engagement in governance. The administration also mounted a Sexual and Gender-Based Violence (SGBV) awareness campaign, thereby reinforcing its stance on protecting women and children and advancing social inclusion.<\/p>\n
In under 100 days, Executive Chairman Lasisi Ayinde Akinsanya has once again reaffirmed his commitment to responsive, inclusive and development-oriented governance. His leadership\u2014rooted in continuity, innovation and active community engagement\u2014continues to deliver tangible dividends, positioning the Igando-Ikotun LCDA firmly on course toward achieving the Greater Lagos Vision and advancing the Renewed Hope Agenda at the grassroots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
