Director General, The Sanwo Olu Support Group, Hajiya Tai Elemosho, has inducted Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Sujimoto Group, Sijibomi Ogundele as Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s ambassador.
Ogundele stated that leadership is about being hands-on and taking responsibility, which is reflective of the government of Sanwo-Olu, irrespective of any shortcomings.
“Someone once made a speech and said, ‘if not for Lagos, where will Sujimoto be?” We may all be in denial but Lagos state has sustained lots of entrepreneurs and businesses, giving us the opportunity to thrive irrespective of the common issues we face. Lagos is a product of the extreme efforts and great visions of exceptional leaders and politicians, working tirelessly for the good of the state.
“Despite the global challenges, we have seen Governor Sanwo-Olu rehabilitates 632 inner roads, 361 sectional roads, 1.4km flyover and dual carriage road delivered, 34 roads delivered at Ikoyi, Victoria Island, Kosofe and Shomolu and many other infrastructural developments in the health and education sector. My property experienced a 120 per cent increase in valuation as a result of the infrastructural development in the Ikoyi corridor.
According to him, security is the most important part of Sanwo-Olu’s government because he recognises that without a secure state, there cannot be development.
“In the last three and half years, we have been supporting all the security architecture in the state. He also reiterated that the Lagos state government has just received over 21 containers filled with security and IT infrastructure, to bring 21st-century security and camera monitoring system to every part of the state.
“I saw Sanwo-Olu speaking yesterday as a guest on Channels Television, and you can see a very active and hands-on leader, who understands the task and is also fully involved in the complex process of regulating Okadas on our highways, to creating a 10km bypass road from Chevron to Freedom road; displaying exceptional understanding of LAWMA’s inner-workings and the debt structure mechanism of Lagos state. Speaking on government’s activities on the Apapa road, I was blown away by his ability to recall the number of trailers plying the Apapa axis and what government is doing specifically to free up the commercial area. These and many more are a testament to the fact that Governor Sanwo-Olu is not just a man of words, he walks the talks with verifiable proof, and is the right CEO to continue the Lagos state project. For me, the type of CEO I will hire is a CEO that has a track record of ‘I have done it before’ not ‘I will do it’”, Ogundele added.
Elemosho, during the visit to Sujimoto headquarters explained that their intention is not to force people into supporting the incumbent but rather for people to vote their conscience after a careful consideration of the glossary of achievements of the Sanwo olu’s government, within the last few years.
