The Majority Leader of the Lagos State House of Assembly Hon. Sanai Agunbiade, representing Ikorodu constituency 1 has appealed to his constituents to re-elect him for the fifth term.

“Over the years the voice of the people of Ikorodu Constituency 1 was quite pronounced on the floor of the State legislature as I have sponsored bills and motions as well as contributed qualitatively to debates where the interest of the constituents were canvassed.”

The articulate and highly cerebral legislator also disclosed that he has embarked on a good number of empowerment programs to uplift the socio-economic standards of the people, saying that he has facilitated the employment of about 110 constituents as providing a sustainable means of livelihood were his hallmark.
