Good Morning my loves. Not everyone is here to cook indomie, and that’s okay 🤍

I stepped away from the usual business of governance to walk the runway for the incredibly talented Ugo Monye at Lagos Fashion Week.
Lagos continues to grow as a home for fashion, creativity and culture and I am always happy to support the people driving this growth.

The context is clear, the people that posted it know, the ones commenting also know, We all know what we are doing.

“Lagos traffic is not a problem, it is a lifestyle.”
The comments made by the Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, at PodFestNaija 2026 have been deliberately taken out of context.
His remarks were neither a celebration of traffic congestion nor an indication that the Lagos State Government is comfortable with the inconvenience experienced by Lagosians.
Rather, he was explaining a reality that every resident of Lagos understands. Lagos is Nigeria’s commercial capital and one of Africa's busiest cities. Millions of people move across the state every day for work, business, education, entertainment and commerce. That daily movement has shaped how people plan their schedules, consume information, create content and conduct business.
In that context, traffic has become part of the Lagos lifestyle. It influences when people leave home, how businesses operate, how podcasts, music and digital content are consumed, and even how entrepreneurs reach their audiences. This was the point the Deputy Governor was making during a conversation about the growth of the creative and digital economy.
Recognising that traffic has become part of daily life is not the same as accepting it as the ideal. It is simply acknowledging the realities of a rapidly growing megacity while working continuously to improve mobility.
The Lagos State Government has consistently invested in practical solutions to improve mobility across the state. These include the expansion of rail transportation, the development of water transport, strategic road construction and junction improvements, intelligent traffic management systems, the deployment of LASTMA personnel, and Traffic Radio 96.1FM, which provides real time traffic updates to help commuters make informed travel decisions and reduce delays. Together, these initiatives form part of a comprehensive multimodal transport strategy aimed at reducing travel time and improving connectivity.
Those seeking to portray the Deputy Governor's comments as insensitive have relied on an isolated phrase instead of the substance of his remarks. Public discourse is best served when statements are presented in their full context rather than through selective excerpts.
Traffic is a reality of every major global city. In Lagos, it has become part of how people organise their lives, while government remains firmly committed to making that reality easier, safer and more efficient for everyone.

A heart of gratitude.
Today, I woke up in deep reflection of my journey through life.
As I celebrate yet another birthday, I’m indeed thankful to Almighty Allah (swt) for His blessings, guidance, protection and good health.
To my dear wife Oluremi, I say thank you for holding my hands, cheering me on, and supporting me. Thank you for keeping the sanctity of our home. My dear, the journey ahead is long, and might be challenging, but continue to keep the faith.
To my dear children, I say a big thank you for your kind understanding that I was built and made for service.
To family, friends, associates and indeed the good people of Lagos, I truly appreciate your support and your vote of confidence in my capabilities and capacity to serve.
Every chapter of my life has been a learning curve, and everyday I wake up with a renewed zeal for commitment to the people I serve.
Therefore, at 62, I look ahead with renewed purpose, knowing that there is still much to do and an even greater Lagos to build.
I thank the people of Lagos for the trust and support over the years.
The journey continues and I am ready for the work ahead.

Happy 62nd birthday to my dear brother, friend, and dependable partner, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat.
For over seven years, we have shared the responsibilities and challenges of serving Lagos. Through it all, @drobafemihamzat has been a trusted ally, a loyal friend, and someone I can always count on. His dedication to the people of Lagos and his steady strength show up in everything we do.
Ibijoke and I, along with our family and the good people of Lagos, celebrate you today. Thank you for your loyalty, your support and your unwavering friendship over the years.
May God grant you many more years of good health and strength as you continue to serve our state.

Today, I accepted the nomination of our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), as its gubernatorial candidate for the 2027 Lagos Governorship Election with deep gratitude.
I am truly humbled by this honour and I thank Almighty Allah, our party leaders, and every member who has placed their trust in me.
My journey started in Mushin, shaped by hard work, service, and the belief that government must improve the lives of ordinary people. Over the last two decades, I have had the privilege of serving Lagos in different capacities alongside exceptional leaders who laid the foundation for the progress our state enjoys today.
I have seen firsthand that governance is not easy but I have also seen what is possible when leadership is guided by vision, courage, and a genuine commitment to the people. As Deputy Governor, I understand that keeping a megacity running requires careful planning, experience, and steady leadership.
My decision to run comes from one simple question: how do we build a Lagos that works better for everyone? I am running to serve all Lagosians. Whether you are a fisherman in Badagry, a trader in Mile 12, a mechanic in Yaba or a corporate executive in Victoria Island, this government will work for you.
We must continue to invest in transportation, jobs, education, healthcare, security, and opportunities that give people hope and dignity. We must build a Lagos where no one is left behind and where every child can dream beyond the circumstances they were born into.
I am proud of what we have achieved as a state, but I am even more excited about what lies ahead.
I thank His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Her Excellency First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Governance Advisory Council and our dedicated party members across the 20 LGAs and 37 LCDAs for their support and belief in this journey.
A special thank you to my wife, Oluremi, and our children for their unwavering support and sacrifice.
The stakes in 2027 are high but with your partnership, we will keep Lagos moving forward and continue building a future we can all be proud of.
Thank you for your trust, your prayers, and your support. I do not take any of it for granted.
Together, let us build the future of Lagos.

Today, I received the endorsement of our leader and the President of Nigeria, H.E. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, as the official APC candidate for the 2027 Lagos Governorship election.
I am indeed very grateful for the vote of confidence and endorsement. I am fully aware of the responsibility it carries. I am enthusiastic and looking forward to continuing on the good work and the foundation the President has laid in Lagos State.
Lagos state is an ongoing project because we are the yardstick for development and progress. There is still a lot of work ahead, we have an election to win and a legacy to protect.
I therefore remain focused on the journey ahead.

Today, I am honoured by the endorsement of my Governor, my brother and my friend, HE Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
His trust means a great deal to me. We’ve worked side by side in the service of Lagos State, and I don’t take this vote of confidence lightly.
I remain committed to building on the progress we’ve made together, and look forward to serving Lagosians with integrity, focus and a clear sense of purpose.

I paid a consultation visit to the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudasiru Obasa, where we had a thoughtful discussion on the direction of our state.
I took the time to share my priorities for Lagos State and I remain committed to doing the work that keeps our state on track.
