Senator Mukhail Adetokunbo Abiru, FCA, representing Lagos East Senatorial District, has once again demonstrated his commitment to grassroots development with the commissioning of three major infrastructure projects and twelve motorized boreholes across Epe communities.
At separate commissioning ceremonies held in Ikosi-Ejinrin and Eredo Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs), residents celebrated the handover of:
A renovated and equipped Primary Health Centre in Ado-Ikosi,
A newly constructed Primary Health Centre at Kula Nla, Odomola,
And a fully furnished block of classrooms at RCM Primary School, Ejinrin.
In addition to these, 12 solar-powered boreholes were unveiled in strategic locations across the district to improve access to clean water.
Speaking through his Special Assistant, Mr. Dele Abiru, and Hon. Olusegun Olulade (Eleniyan), Executive Director at Galaxy Backbone Limited, the Senator reaffirmed his dedication to impactful representation focused on education and healthcare.
“At Ado-Ikosi and Kula-Nla, residents now have better access to quality healthcare, while at Ejinrin, pupils can learn in a more conducive environment,” Senator Abiru said.
The projects were officially commissioned by local government executives including Hon. Akogun Wale Raji Anomo, Chairman of Ikosi-Ejinrin LCDA, and Hon. Ismail Monsuru Akinloye, Chairman of Eredo LCDA. They lauded Senator Abiru’s focus on development that touches lives at the grassroots.
“Today’s project is yet another testament to his developmental philosophy, ‘the greater good for the greater number’, that governance must translate into real and measurable progress in the lives of the majority of the people,” said Hon. Anomo.
“Senator Abiru’s representation continues to reflect excellence, compassion, and foresight. From the facilitation of two blocks of three classrooms at Itoikin, to the provision of solar-powered boreholes and other social empowerment initiatives, our communities have consistently felt the impact of his leadership,” he added.
At RCM Primary School in Ejinrin, students and teachers were visibly excited about the newly built classroom block, calling it a “dream come true.”
Hon. Shittu Aliu Idowu, Education Secretary of the Epe Local Government Education Authority, extended appreciation on behalf of Dr. Hakeem Shittu, Chairman of the Lagos State Universal Basic Education Board (LASUBEB), for what he described as Senator Abiru’s “immense contributions to the growth of education in Lagos East.”
At Kula Nla, Odomola, where the new Primary Health Centre now stands, the project was described as “timely and life-saving.” The community monarch, HRM Oba Sulaimon Adebowale, the Omola of Odomola, expressed deep gratitude to the Senator for the transformation of healthcare in the area.
Hon. Ismail Monsuru Akinloye, Eredo LCDA Chairman, also praised Abiru’s leadership style, noting that:
“His inclusive approach ensures that every local government under his watch feels the touch of his representation.”
Senator Abiru, who has consistently pursued a people-first legislative agenda, continues to deliver projects across Lagos East in the areas of education, healthcare, youth and women empowerment, and social infrastructure. His “Doing Good” mantra, anchored on inclusive development, has positioned him as a responsive and visionary leader.
