The Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, has applauded the Speaker of the state’s House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, for transforming Agege through facilitating developmental projects.

While noting that the town had witnessed the true dividends of democracy, he said the level of development Agege had recorded during the Speaker’s tenure was unprecedented.

Hamzat spoke at the grand finale of the Agege Day celebration and launch of the N500m Agege Education Endowment Fund on Tuesday.

Speaking on the significance of the N500m Education Endowment Fund, Obasa urged individuals across the state to help contribute to building a society free of social vices through the provision of qualitative education to stem the ugly trend of out-of-school students constituting a nuisance in the state.

He said, “Basically, the essence of achievement is to continue to build on it. We have so many people who have passed through some of the schools in Agege and achieved so much in their lives, and we are calling on these people to further support the current students we have in Agege, right from primary school to secondary school.

He commended the residents of Agege for their unity, irrespective of tribe and religion, saying Agege Day was meant to further cement the relationship and fight crime.

Speaking on the essence of the endowment fund, the Chairman of the Organisation Committee of Agege Day, Afolabi Ayantayo, noted that it would be used to mitigate shortfalls in educational infrastructure and other related areas.
