Leaders and stakeholders of the All Progressives Congress in Surulere Federal Constituency II have been urged to close ranks and strengthen grassroots engagement ahead of the forthcoming general elections. This call was made by Lanre Okunola, a Member of the House of Representatives representing the constituency, at the party's monthly strategic meeting. The meeting was held at the Itire-Ikate Local Council Development Area Secretariat.

Okunola, who chaired the meeting, emphasized the importance of unity and focus on the party's ideals of progressive governance and grassroots development. He urged ward chairmen and party members to remain united and work towards the party's goals. According to Okunola, the party must deepen engagement at the ward level and prevent internal disagreements from affecting its preparations for the elections.

The meeting reviewed the party's activities at the grassroots and discussed ways of improving coordination across the wards. Okunola highlighted the need for the party to deliver on the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu. He stressed that the party's victory in the upcoming elections must be total, and that no internal division should be allowed to affect the party's performance.

The Chairman of Itire-Ikate Local Council Development Area, Oluwafemi Daniel Odunayo, commended Okunola for his leadership and effective representation.
