Sanwo-Olu’s Matchless Feat … How He Became the Most Visible Governor in Nigeria

What is the reward of good work if not more work? This is the destiny that Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has accrued to himself. With his most recent accomplishments, Sanwo-Olu gives more credit to the long-held view that he is the most visibly committed governor in Nigeria.

It is no longer a big deal that Sanwo-Olu has both a progressive and conservative side. A visionary man for sure, the man holds the view that development should be conservative steady and stable, but no less progressively ground-breaking and innovative. This view has paid off greatly, returning to him in the form of cheers from Lagosians big and small.

Sanwo-Olu’s completion of the Blue Rail project in Lagos is the most recent proof that his diligence is not for show. As readers would recall, the project sent Lagosians jubilating upon its completion on Monday, September 4, 2023. With Lagosians having converged at the Marina railway station, Sanwo-Olu took his place as the conductor for the first conveyance by train.

Without a question, the unfeigned rapture that accompanied Sanwo-Olu’s completion of the Blue Rail project is no less widespread than the joy that has accompanied many others before and after. From transportation to education and many other sectors of the economy, Sanwo-Olu’s place as the captain of progress in Lagos is unshakeable.

It has to be said that Sanwo-Olu’s approach of compendious governance is being cheered on by all and sundry. Some governors focus on security alone, and others on health. But Sanwo-Olu is as dedicated to one area as he is to the other, recognizing the value of holistic management and development.

Indeed, Sanwo-Olu is growing more popular by the day. Unlike many governors, his second term is looking no less dazzling compared to the first. Considering this level of dedication, the man might just be transplanted to the federal level upon completing his second term as Lagos governor.
