The PBAT/KOH Door-to-Door Movement in Odi-Olowo/Ojuwoye Local Council Development Area (LCDA) has commenced efforts to strengthen grassroots mobilisation ahead of its official unveiling.
The initiative began with the inaugural meeting of the Movement’s local Apex Committee, held on Wednesday, 11 November, 2026, and convened by the LCDA Coordinator, Surv. Martins Elijah, following his inauguration at the state level.
The meeting brought together LGA executives, ward coordinators and representatives of various interest groups to establish responsibilities, strengthen communication channels and develop strategies for effective mobilisation across the council area.
Speaking at the meeting, Elijah urged members to adopt a disciplined and evidence-based approach to community engagement, stressing the need to listen to residents’ concerns while communicating the vision of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the achievements of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He said the Movement’s slogan, ‘Every Door Matters’, should reflect its commitment to reaching residents individually and building meaningful relationships within communities.
The Coordinator also called on members to maintain cordial relationships with existing party structures, including the party chairman, ward chairmen and other stakeholders, noting that cooperation and unity were essential to effective grassroots mobilisation.
He urged members to conduct themselves responsibly and serve as worthy ambassadors of Òdì-Olowo/Ojuwoye, adding that their interactions with residents would influence public perception of the Movement.
The mobilisation initiative is aimed at securing support for President Tinubu; Lagos State APC governorship candidate, Dr. Kadiri Obafemi Hamzat; House of Representatives candidate, Aremo Adeyemi Alli, and House of Assembly candidate, Nureni Akinsanya, ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Participants at the meeting included the Apex Committee’s coordinator, secretary, woman leader, youth leader, publicity secretary and ward coordinators, as well as representatives of students, market associations, artisans and the Islamic and Christian communities.
The ward coordinators are expected to replicate the alignment meetings with their respective executives ahead of a general assembly involving the wider membership of the Movement.
The initiative is expected to provide a coordinated structure for grassroots engagement and strengthen the Movement’s presence across Òdì-Olowo/Ojuwoye
