I joined Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu at the Ministerial Implementation Retreat on the Clean Lagos Electricity Market (CLEM), alongside the Honourable Minister of Power, Chief Joseph Olasunkanmi Tegbe, and key stakeholders across the power sector.
We had discussions with a focus on understanding the challenges and finding solutions that can work for Lagos. From improving transmission and distribution to expanding embedded and off-grid generation and securing better gas supply, there is important work ahead.
Every step we take in the power sector must ultimately lead to better electricity for homes, businesses and industries across Lagos.
That is the kind of progress we are committed to building.
Today, I represented the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, at the 2026 World Teachers’ Day celebration at the NUT Pavilion in Ikeja.
We took the time to celebrate our teachers and recognise the commitment they bring to the education of our children every day.
As we continue to build a Lagos where every child has the opportunity to thrive, we must also ensure that the people entrusted with their education have the support and respect they deserve. Our commitment is to keep listening, keep improving and keep putting our people first.
From Lagos to London, Kano to Kaduna, Enugu to Imo, home and in the diaspora, millions of Nigerians are supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reelection. He will win because the silent majority are with him. #ReElectPresidentTinubu 💙

Today, I was at The Platform’s Independence Day Edition for a town hall with young Lagosians, particularly members of the Gen Z and millennial generations.
I shared my thoughts from the perspective of someone who has been directly involved in the work of governing this state, because Lagos requires practical solutions, not sentiments.
During our conversation, we tackled some of the biggest issues facing our state, starting with waste management. I shared where we currently stand and where we are heading. Right now, we are transforming sites like Olusosun and Solus in Alimosho by building dedicated Transfer Loading Stations and Materials Recovery facilities. We also have over 150 new compactor trucks arriving to strengthen daily collection. Over in Agbowa, a private partner is setting up a facility designed to process more than 5,000 metric tonnes of waste daily.
I also talked about continuity. Government works best when each administration builds on the achievements of the last. My prayer for Lagos has always been that every incoming leader does even better for our people than the one before. That is why Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and I remain fully committed to completing flagship infrastructure like the Blue and Red Line Rail projects and the Omi Eko waterways initiative. At the same time, maintaining continuity never stops us from bringing fresh, innovative ideas to the table, provided they directly improve the lives of Lagosians.
Thank you to everyone who tuned in, asked tough questions and joined the conversation today. Your energy keeps us grounded and focused on the work ahead.

In the course of our ongoing consultations, I visited the Jama’at Islamiyyah Society of Nigeria, where I met with Hajia Ramlat Okunola, Hajia Wonu Folami and other members of the community.
Our religious and civic institutions have long played an important role in the life of Lagos. Seeking their counsel is essential to building a future that works for everyone.
