The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has congratulated the Committee of Wives of Lagos State Officials (COWLSO) on the celebration of its 25th anniversary, describing the milestone as a testament to visionary leadership, continuity, and purposeful service under the theme, “Inspiring the Next Generation.”
In a statement issued by the Lagos APC Spokesman, Hon. (Mogaji) Seye Oladejo, the party lauded COWLSO for its enduring impact in promoting community service, women empowerment, and civic responsibility — values that have continued to shape Lagos into a model of excellence and innovation.
A Legacy of Leadership and Service
The statement traced COWLSO’s evolution from its founding years under the leadership of Her Excellency, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, OON, CON, now the First Lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, to the current stewardship of Dr. (Mrs.) Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, whose leadership has further strengthened the organization’s relevance.
According to the Lagos APC, COWLSO’s numerous interventions in health, education, environment, and women development reflect the continuity of compassion-driven governance that transcends political administrations.
A Model of Sustainability and Mentorship
The party commended COWLSO for standing as a model of institutional sustainability and intergenerational mentorship, aligning with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whose governance philosophy of inclusion and empowerment continues to inspire transformation across the country.
It noted that COWLSO’s annual conferences have become an intellectual and policy platform for developing ideas that drive social progress, positioning the council as a vital stakeholder in Lagos’ development journey.
Inspiring the Future
As the committee marks a quarter-century of impact, Lagos APC applauded its role in raising a generation of women leaders and professionals committed to advancing family values, girl-child education, and the welfare of the less privileged — ideals that mirror the spirit of Lagos: a city that works, innovates, and leads.
A Pledge of Continued Partnership
Reaffirming its support, the Lagos APC pledged continued collaboration with COWLSO in all efforts to uplift Lagosians and deepen the culture of service and excellence that defines the state.
> “The success of COWLSO is not just a tribute to the women behind it, but a reflection of Lagos’ people-centered and visionary governance structure,” the statement read.
“As we celebrate 25 years of a visionary legacy, we are confident that COWLSO will continue to inspire future generations to serve with empathy, lead with courage, and build with integrity.”
Congratulations, COWLSO!
The Lagos APC salutes you — for your legacy, vision, and unwavering service to humanity.
