He noted that the Chairman’s tenure has been marked by significant infrastructural development, social welfare programs, and progressive policies that have positively transformed the community.

I assure you that youth development will remain a priority in my administration, with more programs aimed at empowering our young population for the greater good of our community and Ikosi-Ejinrin LCDA at large,” Anomo stated.
