...Extols President Tinubu Led Administration
The House of Representatives' Agege Constituency is represented by Dr. Wale Ahmed, a former lawmaker, two-time commissioner, and former secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State. He discussed his involvement in the National Assembly, the Tinubu administration, and other topics.
In the 2023 presidential election, Nigerians made informed choices and cast informed ballots, and I want to start by making that clear.
The past few years have undoubtedly been extremely difficult, demanding, and rewarding for the nation because Nigerians elected a seasoned politician who is a full-blooded democrat, a champion of democracy, and a fair-minded man of vision and inspiration. He is clearly well-suited to the role of providing direction and focus to this vastly diverse nation.
God had prepared President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for this moment. He is undoubtedly leading with a decent heart, possessing the necessary national perspective, and bringing the nation together by implementing a just and equitable administration that has everyone on board.
I can see demonstrable courage and boldness, a rare clarity of thought and wisdom, as he is mobilising every segment of the society for nation building. He has been decisive in taking certain steps and difficult decisions in the overall national interest, thereby laying a good, solid foundation for greater tomorrow and future prosperity.
President Bola Tinubu presides over a government of reforms. His reforms and innovations fall within the framework of indepth socio-economic restructuring, which, fundamentally, comes with transcient pains, the types that will predictably herald a new lease of life for the generality of Nigerians, both now and in the future. For example, under his leadership, Nigeria’s revenue base has ballooned and strengthened exponentially, translating in the lower sub-units, that is states and local governments, now having much more funds to channel into their developmental priorities.
There is now a lot of fiscal discipline and financial loopholes are removed. I also salute his focus on grassroots governance as exemplified by the financial autonomy to the councils, which will foster development at the grassroots level.
On his constituency activities, Dr. Wale spoke with confidence on his office has transformed the face of Agege Federal Constituency...
....I will like to put it this way. It is difficult to start counting or enumerating the way I have impacted on our people Agege Federal Constituency. I practically live with them. So, I am able to rise to the occasion and responde to their needs. To be specific, I will start with our educational programme.
Two days ago, we identified those young people who just gained admission into the university . No fewer than 50 of them were given scholarship. We will be encouraging and mentoring them.
Before that, we looked at our environment and discovered that not all of them would go to the university or Polytechnic. We trained 150 of young people in various vocations and during graduation, we gave them money to go and start business, to buy equipment. Recently, we did a medical outreach for three days. It was so successful, so helpful. As a matter of fact, since then, they have been asking for more.
In Agege, we are known for our markets and Agege bread. We have provided solar powered street lights to increase after hour business activities and security,and solar powered boreholes. We presented flours to Master Bakers Association in Agege in aid of their business. We also gave market men and women food items and financial empowerment.
The distribution of foodstuffs to all and sundry has been virtually an every month affair. I am at home virtually every weekend. I am always with my constituents. Other assistance, as the need arise, we do that regularly.
We must prioritize the supply of water in the upcoming year. I educate them of our beloved President Asiwaju Tinubu's enormous accomplishments. The average person in Agege is aware that the macroeconomic indicators that indicate the president's policies—such as the decline in inflation, the strengthening and stability of the naira, the increase in foreign reserves, and the decrease in fuel prices—will soon result in lower landing costs for meals at their table. In other words, there is hope for the future and my people in Agege have faith in this government.
