The organisers stated that they had gone round the local government and were impressed at the level the Itire-Ikate chairman is constructing roads, schools and other infrastructure in the area and also the fast pace at which he has transformed the council area.

Responding, Hon. Bamgbola described the day as one of the greatest in his life and stated that it shows that the council is working and moving forward. He said he decided to accept the award after he discussed with members of his cabinet and they assured him that he merited it, because according to him, “in normal circumstances, I just don’t accept awards and the question I ask is that: have the organisers gone round to see what we have done?

He, however, thanked the organisers for their initiative and said it is high time the Federal Government realised that Lagos State deserves more than the 20 local government areas.
