Integrity News celebrates Sesan Olowa as he emerges leader of Lagos council chairmen, heads Conference 57
The leadership and staff of Integrity News heartily congratulate the Executive Chairman of Ibeju-Lekki Local Government, Hon. Abdullahi Sesan Olowa, on his well-deserved emergence as Chairman of the Conference 57 League of Local Government Chairmen in Lagos State.
This remarkable milestone was confirmed following the official swearing-in ceremony of all newly elected local government chairmen across the state, presided over by the Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu.
Hon. Olowa’s election as the Chairman of Chairmen is not only a recognition of his astute leadership and dedication to grassroots governance, but also a reaffirmation of the trust and respect he commands among his peers across the 57 Local Government Areas and Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in Lagos State.
Also elected alongside him is Prince Usman Akanbi Hamzat, Executive Chairman of Ifako-Ijaiye Local Government, who will serve as Secretary of the Conference. Together, they are expected to steer the affairs of the league towards greater unity, capacity building, and improved local governance across Lagos.
A Legacy of Service and Vision
As Hon. Olowa embarks on this new chapter, he does so while simultaneously commencing his second term in office as Chairman of Ibeju-Lekki Local Government—a dynamic and rapidly growing region often referred to as the future of Lagos due to its massive infrastructural and economic potential.
His administration has earned widespread commendation for prioritizing development, transparency, youth empowerment, and infrastructure renewal. From championing inclusive governance to attracting critical investments, Hon. Olowa has consistently demonstrated what visionary leadership looks like at the grassroots level.
At Integrity News, we have had the privilege of reporting firsthand the transformation journey of Ibeju-Lekki under his stewardship. His ability to balance administrative excellence with people-focused initiatives has distinguished him as one of the most forward-thinking local government leaders in Nigeria today.
Looking Ahead
As he assumes this new state-wide leadership responsibility, we are confident that Hon. Olowa will bring to bear the same diligence, innovation, and integrity that have become hallmarks of his leadership in Ibeju-Lekki.
The Conference 57 League plays a critical role in shaping local government administration and policy advocacy in Lagos. With Hon. Olowa at the helm, the expectations are high—and rightly so. His leadership offers hope for deeper collaboration among councils, stronger grassroots impact, and more coordinated engagement with the Lagos State Government on development priorities.
Our Best Wishes
We at Integrity News are proud to be associated with a leader of such character and competence. As he continues to serve the people of Ibeju-Lekki and now steps into a broader role serving all 57 council chairmen, we wish Hon. Abdullahi Sesan Olowa wisdom, strength, and continued success.
His emergence is not just a personal achievement—it is a victory for visionary grassroots governance.
Signed,
