In a significant step toward the 2025 Lagos Local Government Elections, Hon. Lateef Ashimi officially received the campaign flag under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Somolu. The symbolic handover marks the formal commencement of his campaign to represent the people of Somolu Local Government.
During the flag presentation ceremony, Ashimi took time to acknowledge the remarkable leadership of Hon. Abdul Hamed Salawu, popularly known as Dullar, the incumbent Chairman of Somolu. He described Dullar as a grassroots-oriented leader whose impact is deeply felt across all wards in the local government.
Ashimi stated that the level of infrastructural development, youth empowerment, and environmental progress witnessed under Dullar’s administration sets a strong foundation for continuity and growth.
“We are building on a legacy of progress,” Ashimi said. “Chairman Dullar has shown what responsive leadership looks like, and we’re proud to continue from where he stops.”
With the official flag now in hand, Hon. Ashimi and his team are set to engage with the electorate across communities in Somolu, sharing their vision, listening to concerns, and mobilizing support ahead of the July 12 polls.
