According to him "let me start by thanking you for this,let me state that I was born in Oshodi and the environment has given me much  and it's now my turn to reciprocate by contributing positively to it's development as chairman. I  started my business in the same Oshodi in over 30 years ago,presently,I am leveraging on it for my kids so that they can handle it while I engage in other ventures.."


"Rebranding of Oshodi is a task that must be done,we shall pursue that vigorously,the negative impression of our Oshodi will be a things of the past ,as it's nearness to the airport as well as being the business hub is what we will have to showcase to the world and it's fortunes will be turned around",he said..


Continuing" we shall declare a state of emergency on our roads as they are in deplorable shapes and only a concerted efforts by someone who is committed like me that can ameliorate the situation,that's one area I am interested. Also,the development of our youth is key while our market will be upgraded and rehabilitated so that our mothers,sisters and aunts will have where to sell their wares. Our government shall be a transparent one and we will ensure all interests are protected,stressing Oshodi will be greater.  



On his foray ,he stated that he was born into a family that plays politics and that since childhood,he has been watching them play the game closely and he picked interest in politics from there. 


On God fathers in politics,he said they are always there and will always be there,but for him,his God father is a blessing to Lagos State and Nigeria in general. 

He promised the issue of God father won't affect the smooth running of the council by him,but will add positive impact as he is ready to tap from their wealth of experience. 



On a final note,he appreciated the organisers of the questions and answer session ,promising he will subject himself to debate any day ,anytime as he believes in positive engagement.
