As the July 12 local government elections in Lagos State draw nearer, the Executive Chairman of Somolu Local Government, Hon. Abdul Hamed Salawu, fondly known as ‘Dullar’, has continued to strengthen community ties through impactful engagement and inclusive leadership.

Hon. Dullar, accompanied by Hon. Mike Oikeh and immediate past Chairman, Hon. Gbolahan Bagostowe, presented the All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairmanship and Vice Chairmanship candidates, Hon. Lateef Ashimi and Taiwo Ojomu, to the stakeholders.

The presentation was widely applauded as a symbol of trust, vision, and continuity in local governance.

In a historic gesture, Hon. Dullar presented brand-new missionary buses to the Somolu Chapters of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) and the League of Imams and Alfas.

Investigator news reports that the CAN delegation was led by Rev. Father Mark Thomas Tizhe of St. Peter & Paul Catholic Church, while the League of Imams delegation was led by the Grand Chief Imam of Somolu, Sheikh Boonyamin Olanrewaju Akanbi Dabiri, and Sheikh Bashir Ahmad.
