Lagos-based businessman and philanthropist, Chief Simon Eze has emphasized that the first 100 days in office of the Executive Chairman of Oriade Local Council Development Area (LCDA) in Lagos State, Hon. Rasaq Akorede Olojede was richly rewarding.
Chief Eze who is the owner of Golden Tree Hotel and Suites at Ayinke Timpson Drive (Satellite Town) and Seamark Electric Company Limited disclosed that the Chairman has exemplified excellence in governance within 3 months of assumption into office.
In a chat with some newsmen at his hotel facility in early hours of Monday, Eze said Olojede is “following the tradition of responsibility, responsiveness and focused administration in setting the pace for delivering on his campaign promises.”
“The November 2025 celebration of 100 days in office of the administration of the Executive Chairman, Oriade LCDA Hon. Rasaq Akorede Olojede climaxed with a series of community-oriented activities such as road construction and rehabilitation, empowerment of youths and market women and other vulnerable segments of the community in less than three months. This is quite commendable and unprecedented.
“Ever since he assumed office, Hon. Olojede has left no one in doubt about his capability and competence as a tested and trusted administrator and technocrat in discharging his constitutional responsibility to the admiration of the good people of Oriade LCDA in Lagos State who are delighted that they made the right choice during the July 12 council poll” Chief Eze said.
The Enugu born entrepreneur added that the Chairman has succeeded in repositioning the civil service and bringing development to every nook and cranny of the Oriade LCDA and has equally justified President Bola Tinubu’s support for grassroots autonomy and ensuring financial transparency and accountability.
Eze added: “Our people say Saturday determines how Sunday will eventually look like, if our Chairman could attain these feats in less than three months we are confident that he will be recognized as the best performing LCDA Chairman in Lagos to the greater good of the local dwellers. Your timely intervention since the day you resumed office to fix Community road Satellite Town; Jimoh Street, Agboju off Old Ojo Road; Moshalashi street-Onireke Community, opposite Ojo Army Barracks; Ayinke Timpson Phase 2 Satellite Town, to mention but a few has proven that you truly have a date with destiny.
“Also commendable, is his passion for implementing the Lagos State THEMES+ agenda. The Honorable Chairman is painstakingly implementing the blueprint of Transportation, Health, Education, Environment, Security and Social Inclusion into projects that impact lives socio-economically. You are dispassionately developing the rural communities making them feel the presence of the government.
“You also allow our riverine and underserved areas know that they, too, are not forgotten, you’re truly making governance inclusive, equitable, and people-centred. We sincerely appreciate you for upholding the values of the APC and ensuring that development touches every ward and community under your care.
“Sir, your success is our success and we all stand firmly with you. We will continue to support and encourage you so that we can enjoy more dividends of democracy under your watch. We will work with you as you continue to deepen the highest standards in governance. You’re just so exceptional with zero tolerance for underperformance. I wish you best of luck and greater achievements as you continue to run the affairs of Oriade LCDA in operation and in administration,” Eze stated.
