In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Dave Agboola, and released shortly after the congress, Obasa commended the peaceful and transparent manner in which the exercise was conducted. He described Ojelabi’s re-election as a reflection of the confidence and trust reposed in his leadership by party members across the state.  

“Pastor Ojelabi has shown remarkable dedication and vision in steering the affairs of our party in Lagos. His return as chairman is a well-deserved recognition of his efforts to strengthen the APC and ensure its continued success,” Obasa said.  

The Speaker urged the new executives to work together in consolidating the achievements of the party, deepening internal democracy, and fostering unity among members.
