Ijebutedo APC leaders inspect completed and ongoing projects, thumb-up Dullar-led administration’s infrastructural legacy

The All Progressive Congress (APC) leaders in ward C (Ijebutedo/Palmgrove) in the Somolu local government area of the state under the leadership of Hon. AbdulRasaq Tajudeen recently embarked on a tour of inspection of completed and ongoing projects put in place by the Executive Chairman of Somolu local government, Hon. AbdulHamed Salawu ‘Dullar’ while applauding him for the yeoman’s job.

According to the leader of the team and chairman of the Leaders Council, Hon. AbdulRasaq Tajudeen (Baba-Oja) who said the chairman’s leadership acumen has led to substantial improvement in infrastructure, healthcare, education with significant and positive influence on the lives of the residents scoring him with an impressive score of 95% for his holistic community development initiative.

“When we assessed what he has done in our ward in the last six and the half years since he came to power, we realized he deserves some kudos from the leaders and the Yoruba adage says, ‘Yin-ni-yin-ni, kale se mii’. It’s when you appreciate somebody for what he has done that he will be encouraged to do more. The reason why we’re trying to let the whole world know about his exploit in the Somolu community”.

“In our ward alone, the Chairman, Hon. AbdulHamed Salawu ‘Dullar’ has executed over 18 streets which include reconstruction of Olaleye market, Ijebutedo PHc, and Wright Memorial Primary School to mention but few”.

“On behalf of the leaders’ Council of Ijebutedo, we want to say a big thank you to the Executive Chairman of Somolu local government, and our MHR, Hon. Ademorin Kuye who has also facilitated solar street lights at Shipeolu, Eyo, and Akeju streets while Boreholes were also sunk at Awofeso and Opeloyeru streets. We appreciate their genuine gestures for what they have done so far in our ward”. He echoed.

Similarly, the duo of the leaders who were also on the team, Hon. Olumuyiwa Olukoya and Hon. Gbenga Paul in their submissions described the Executive Chairman’s performance as second to none since the inception of his tenure in 2017 noting that the chairman has performed wonderfully well even beyond their expectations not leaving the member of the Federal House of Representatives, Hon. Ademorin Kuye who has also facilitated meaningful infrastructures in the community.

“There are some streets (Adedoyin and Ofeamada streets) that had not seen repair for more than 30 years but Hon. AbdulHamed Salawu came in and fixed all the roads and today we can boast that we have just about 2 or 3 streets that are untarred and he has also done well in the area of health with new Ijebutedo PHc, rebuild Wright Memorial Pry school in the area of education, and the area of welfares he has also done so well”. He stated.

In the same vein, another member of the inspection team, Mr. K.A. Maiyegun in his appreciative message showered praises on the council boss for the unflinching support the ward has been enjoying since the beginning of his tenure as the council chairman while he prayed to God to grant him more strength, wisdom, and understanding to be able to perform better.

“Just as we pray for them, we pray the Lord will strengthen us with the able leader, Hon. AbdulRasaq Tajudeen to be able to convince our elective officers so that they can perform better. They’ve all done very well and the people are still expecting more from them and I believe with what we’ve seen. Quality is different from quantity and we appreciate them”.

The chairman of the Ward, Mrs. Oladipupo Olayinka, and Mrs. Olaitan Aderoju in their goodwill messages poured encomium on all the leaders of the ward for being thoughtful about the tour of inspection of the completed and ongoing projects in the ward and all other elective officers have been doing in the ward.

The ward chairman continued, “I must say I have been so lucky to have been the chairman of the ward at the time when the ward is moving progressively without any hindrance”.

“I wish to appreciate the Executive chairman of Somolu local government, Hon. AbdulHamed Salawu ‘Dullar’ for bringing the needed development to Ijebutedo. We appreciate him for the new modern market that has just been completed and the ongoing Primary Health Care structure in our ward. I will not hesitate to also thank Hon. Ademorin Kuye for deeming it a feat to facilitate solar streetlights and boreholes in our ward.

In conclusion, the councilor representing the ward, Hon. Adegbite Sunday Olabidemi Omofolarin further described Hon. Abdulhamed Salawu ‘Dullar’ as a visionary leader who ensures his people get the needed attention when and where necessary, especially in the area of infrastructural development.

“For instance, since his emergence six and half years ago, he has rehabilitated 16 roads just in a ward and a lot of projects have been executed in every area in Somolu and he’s the man I will refer to as the ‘Chairman of Infrastructure’. He’s a workaholic, he always talks what other projects that could be executed. He deserves more kudos”. He enthused.

Some of the projects inspected include the ongoing Wright Memorial Primary School project, Ijebutedo Primary Health Centre, the newly completed Olaleye Modern market, the Borehole sunk at Awofeso Street and Opeloyeru Street, and solar street lights erected at various streets which include Shipeolu, Eyo, and Akeju streets.
