Honorable Babatunde Adetunji, a former sole administrator of Ikosi Ejirin LCDA,, who has declared his intention to run for the chairmanship position of Ikosi-Isheri LCDA, has shared his vision and developmental blueprint when elected in the elections.
Speaking in an interview with newsmen, Babatunde Adetunji, who is an experienced and accomplished architect, has shed more light on how he started running the political race, saying that his journey into politics began in the 1990s, when his father was involved in the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
“My desire to contest for any political appointment started in 2006, when I felt I had the financial capability to contest for political office.” he explained.
“I am an open minded person to everyone, irrespective of their religion, race or tribe. One thing about me is the fact that I am a man, who believes in equality and equity. I don’t believe in segregation; we are one big family.”
If elected chairman of Ikosi-Isheri LCDA in the next local government elections in Lagos State, Babatunde Adetunji said he plans to focus on people-oriented programmes, listening to the needs of the community, and attending to their immediate concerns.
“I will take a cue from former governor Ambode, who, in his first 100 days, did almost a tour of Lagos State, and developed the hinterlands” he said.
“I will replicate what he has done in Ikosi-Isheri, because I could remember during my time as a sole administrator Gov. Ambode helped in opening up roads in our community.”
