The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ikeja Federal Constituency has delivered a resounding endorsement for the re-election of Rt Hon James Abiodun Faleke, as over 5,000 party leaders, LGA and ward executives, and stakeholders across the 18 wards publicly declared their backing.
The endorsement rally, held at the LTV Blue Roof in Agidingbi, drew a massive crowd that filled the venue to capacity, with many supporters standing to show solidarity. The show of force underscored Faleke’s grassroots appeal, built on his empowerment initiatives which have reportedly impacted over 50,000 constituents through various economic support programmes aimed at lifting people out of poverty.
Speaking at the event, the Chairman, House Committee on Finance, expressed deep appreciation to party leaders and constituents for their unwavering support, pledging to deliver even more impactful representation if re-elected.
Faleke also used the platform to commend the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, noting that the President’s bold and pragmatic economic reforms have helped steer Nigeria away from fiscal instability inherited from past administrations. He urged Nigerians to remain patient and supportive, stressing that the policies require time to fully deliver the dividends of democracy.
In a symbolic moment, APC chairmen from Ojodu, Ikeja, and Onigbongbo LGAs — Alhaja Sola Kokumo, Hon. Adetoro Adebowale, and Mr. Obanubi — jointly raised Faleke’s hand in affirmation of the party’s collective endorsement, drawing loud applause from the enthusiastic crowd.
The Executive Chairmen of Ikeja Local Government, Ojodu LCDA, and Onigbongbo LCDA — Comrade Akeem Dauda, Hon. Segun Odunmbaku, and Hon. Moyosore Adebanjo — also joined in the symbolic endorsement, raising the hand of James Abiodun Faleke to affirm their collective support for his re-election bid.
