In a significant political development, lawmaker-elect Olaitan Folorunsho has praised the orderly conduct of the Lagos APC primaries, which solidified his position as the party's candidate for Amuwo-Odofin Constituency I. This primary, held on May 25, 2026, reflects the APC's commitment to transparency and democracy amid increasing competition in Lagos politics.
Folorunsho's commendation comes at a time when intra-party dynamics and voter engagement are under scrutiny.

His experience and the support he garnered during the primaries could play a pivotal role in shaping the political narrative in Amuwo-Odofin. The upcoming campaign will likely focus on addressing local issues while leveraging the APC’s established political machinery in Lagos.
