In his inaugural speech following his success at the recently concluded Lagos State Local Government Election, the chairman also said in his government, every voice would be heard.
Prince Lanre said; “I stand before you today, not just as Prince Lanre Sanusi, but as your servant-leader chosen by the will of the people and entrusted with the mandate to lead Amuwo Odofin into a new era of progress, purpose, and people-centered governance,” he said.
“It is the celebration of our collective dream a dream for a safer, cleaner, more prosperous Amuwo Odofin; a dream where governance listens, where leadership serves, and where every child, every woman,every man, every youth, and every elder can thrive.
“My administration is built on five core pillars. Number one is Sanitation and Environment because a clean environment is a healthy environment. From waste management to drainage improvement, we will restore cleanliness, dignity, and order to our communities.
“Number two is Roads and Infrastructure. No local government can grow without strong infrastructure. We will prioritise road rehabilitation, street lighting, and public utilities that make life easier for our residents.
There is also Youth Empowerment and Education. Our youths are not just the future; they are the now. We will invest in skills acquisition, digital training, entrepreneurship, and educational support that open real doors to opportunity.
“We will also focus on Health and Social Welfare. Through this, we will improve access to quality healthcare, maternal services, and care for the elderly and the vulnerable. Health is wealth, and we must protect the well-being of our people.
Finally, we will ensure Inclusive Governance and Transparency. I am not here to rule. I am here to serve. Every ward will be carried along. Every voice will be heard. Every budget will be transparent. We will lead with accountability and integrity,” he said.
Prince Lanre said further; “I do not promise magic. But I promise movement. I promise dedication. I promise visibility. I promise to be a chairman who walks the streets, hears the people, and acts in their best interest.
“We will launch projects that speak. We will collaborate with state and federal authorities to attract development. We will engage partners, the private sector, NGOs, and the diaspora to invest in our local government.”
He called for corporations from political opponents, as well as other stakeholders to move Amuwo Odofin forward.
“I also call on everyone political opponents, critics, elders, youths, civil society — this is not a time to divide. This is the time to build together. Let us unite, because Amuwo Odofin is bigger than any one person,” he said.
Also speaking at the event, Engineer Valentine Braimoh, the immediate past chairmen of the council area, appreciated all stakeholders for their support for him and called for even greater support for Prince Sanusi, who he described as a son of the soil so that he can deliver even more dividends of democracy to the people
