I received the Consul General of the Federal Republic of Germany, Mr. Daniel Krull, on a courtesy visit at Lagos House, Marina.

We discussed practical partnerships in key sectors such as technology, renewable energy and vocational training, which are essential to creating real opportunities for our young people.

Lagos is the economic hub of West Africa, and we are committed to creating an environment where international partnerships can flourish.

Today, we celebrate the enduring spirit of a people who chose democracy and stood firm in its defence.

June 12 serves as a reminder that freedom, justice, and the right of citizens to have their voices heard were secured through courage, sacrifice, and an unwavering belief in a better Nigeria. Today, we honour Chief MKO Abiola, Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, and all those whose sacrifices helped shape the democratic nation we proudly call home.

As we mark 27 years of democratic governance, we must continue to uphold the values that bind us together, respect for one another, active citizenship, accountability, and a shared commitment to progress.

In Lagos State, our diversity remains one of our greatest strengths. Let us continue to work together in unity and mutual respect, building a society where every citizen has the opportunity to contribute and thrive.

Happy Democracy Day, Lagos.

Today, I opened West Africa’s first multi-technology industrial additive manufacturing facility in Lagos.

By producing industrial components and spare parts here in Lagos, Arridex is helping to reduce our dependence on imports, strengthen critical industries and support economic growth.

I commend the Arridex team for their vision and commitment to building solutions that serve not only Nigeria but the wider African continent.

Lagos will continue to support investments that create opportunities, grow local capacity and position our state as a hub for innovation and industry.

To the glory of God, I humbly acknowledge my nomination as the deputy governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2027 Lagos State governorship election.

Today is a reminder of the endless possibilities that have defined our Lagos. It is my hope that my story continues to serve as a reminder that there is no ceiling to our greatness.

As a woman of faith, I have no doubt that God is the architect of our lives, and for this reason, I thank God for His benevolence and grace, which continue to order my steps along this journey.

I convey my deepest gratitude to our president, His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whose exemplary leadership has deepened democratic values in our country and under whose leadership our nation is now on a stronger economic footing. My sincere appreciation to the first lady, Her Excellency Sen. Oluremi Tinubu for her encouragement and support.

I thank our governor, His Excellency Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, and Her Excellency Dr Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu; the candidate of our party, Dr Kadri Obafemi Hamzat; his wife, Mrs Oluremi Hamzat; all the leaders, elders, and great men and women of the All Progressives Congress in Lagos State led by our chairman, Hon. Cornelius Ojelabi; and all the executives and party structure from the state to the ward level.

I extend my profound appreciation to the leadership of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), for considering me worthy of this responsibility. I am especially grateful to the leadership of the Governance Advisory Council led by our respected and revered GAC leader, Prince Tajudeen Olusi, for their collective wisdom, which has continued to serve as an anchor for our party in Lagos State.

I appreciate our traditional rulers, community leaders, grassroots mobilisers, women and youth leaders, and countless supporters across the state.

I extend my deepest gratitude to the people of Badagry and especially Badagry West, whom I have previously had the privilege to serve. Their encouragement has remained a constant source of inspiration, strength, and faith.

This moment belongs to all of us, especially our young people, women, and girls. I am grateful for your outpour of support and look forward to meeting you all in the coming days.

It is a tremendous honour to fly the flag of our great party as deputy governorship candidate to our candidate, Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat. Together, we shall work to consolidate the model of progressive governance that has distinguished Lagos as a centre of excellence and example to other subnationals.

To every Lagosian, I thank you all. May God bless the people and government of Lagos State and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Day 2 of Invest Lagos 3.0 reinforced that Lagos remains a place of opportunity, innovation and enterprise.

Today’s conversations were practical and focused on solutions. We engaged investors and development partners who share our belief in the future of Lagos and our commitment to creating an environment where businesses can grow and succeed.

I remain focused on reducing barriers to investment and building a city where businesses can thrive. Today’s engagements reaffirmed the strong confidence in Lagos and the opportunities that lie ahead.

Thank you to everyone who brought their ideas and energy to the table. The insights shared and partnerships strengthened will help shape the next phase of our economic growth.

Would be great to see the Governor as a minister in charge of investments and investments or foreign affairs in the day ahead. Keep up the good work, Mr Governor Sir.

Today, I received the Consul General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Lagos, Mr. Michel Deelen, on a farewell visit as he concludes his diplomatic assignment in Nigeria.

Over the years, we have built a strong and productive relationship with the Netherlands, and I thanked him for his support and partnership.

We discussed areas of shared interest, including the development of our waterways, the Omi Eko project and the ongoing regeneration and relocation efforts in Okobaba. Mr. Deelen also acknowledged our commitment to creating a welcoming environment for investors.

I thanked him for his service and contributions to strengthening the relationship between Lagos and the Netherlands and I wish him every success in his new posting.

This is the words and face of a Nigerian state governor. A fool. A clown. A confirmed illiterate. A wannabe who is very distant from common sense. A fellow always at war with decency and basic humanity.
