CYRIACUS IZUEKWE

Igbo people in Lagos State under the umbrella of Ohanaeze Ndigbo led by the amiable President, Chief Solomon Ogbonna Aguene, have lauded the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for his support during the Igbo Day Celebration held recently.

P.M.EXPRESS reports as stated by Chief Aguene that Governor Sanwo-Olu has always demonstrated that he is a friend of the Igbo by giving his full support during the Igbo Day Celebration.
He assured the Governor that the Igbo will continue to support him and his Political Party, the APC, because he has accommodated the Igbo in the affairs of governance through favourable policies that protected the Igbo in the State.

Aguene, who holds the title of Udo Chia Ndigbo, also urged the Igbo to continue to support the APC because it is the political party on ground in Lagos State that will protect their interest.

He recalled the assistance the Igbo had received from the government through various palliatives and appointment of Igbo sons and daughters into various positions demonstrating that both the Lagos State and APC are detribalized government and political party.

Chief Aguene also thanked the Igbo who came out in good numbers for the event and showed solidarity to his administration while promising that he will continue to serve the Igbo with every sincerity and honesty.

When Chief Solomon Aguene emerged as President, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Lagos in 2018, many Igbo people believed he would toe the normal way of his predecessors. But today, he has changed the narrative. The present Ohanaeze Ndigbo Lagos has gained more popularity both home and abroad under the leadership of Chief Solomon Ogbonna and Ndigbo are well respected in Lagos because of him.

His administration came with a human face, truth and transparency, which a typical Igbo person wants in leadership. He has brought Ohanaeze to the limelight, connecting it to people that matters in the society and the host community with the likes of the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu and Grand Patron of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Lagos, Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii, Eze Uche Dimgba, Chief Oliver Akubueze, Council of traditional rulers led by Eze Chris Offia and many other respected Igbo leaders.

Today, Ohanaeze Lagos State, has a new face via Chief Solomon Ogbonna, who they so much trusted that he can deliver the dividends of good leadership, which he has been doing since he took over the leadership.
