The atmosphere across Epe Local Government was charged with excitement and unity as Princess Surah Animashaun, Executive Chairman of Epe LGA, concluded her ward-to-ward campaign tour with an impressive show of grassroots support and party solidarity.
The final leg of the tour, held on Thursday, June 27, 2025, spanned Wards A4, A2, C1, D1, A5, and A6, and was marked by a large-scale turnout of enthusiastic residents who came out in their thousands to celebrate a leader widely credited with transforming governance and development in the local government.
The event featured a vibrant display of traditional dances, songs, and chants of support, reflecting deep public approval of Princess. Animashaun’s leadership. Residents expressed appreciation for her inclusive style, focus on infrastructure, education, health, and numerous empowerment initiatives.
Princess Surah Animashaun was accompanied by an influential delegation of All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders, including:
Hon. Abiodun Tobun,
Hon. Bola Gbabijo,
Hon. Segun Agbaje,
Hon. Ahmed Ayinde Seriki,
Hon. Kenny Kadri,
Hon. Alinson Kadri,
Otunba Bode Alausa,
Comrade Toyin Gbadamosi,
Hon. Tunde Ogunkoya,
Leader Akin Oladipupo,
and other key stakeholders.
Their presence emphasized the internal cohesion and strong institutional support behind the Chairman’s anticipated second-term bid.
At each stop, Princess Animashaun addressed residents, thanking them for their overwhelming support and reaffirming her commitment to inclusive growth. She highlighted her administration’s achievements, which include road rehabilitation, school renovations, improved primary healthcare access, and targeted support for women, youth, and vulnerable populations.
She also introduced her Second Term Strategic Development Blueprint, a detailed action plan designed to consolidate gains and expand development initiatives across all wards. “Our ward tour may be ending today, but the journey to a greater Epe continues,” she said. “We are building on progress and driven by vision — and together, we will keep Epe moving forward.”
The ward tour, described by party observers as one of the most successful in recent memory, is seen as a strong signal of her popularity and the APC’s firm grip on the local political landscape.
Attention now turns to the forthcoming Epe Divisional Mega Rally, scheduled for Tuesday, July 1, 2025, which is expected to bring together top APC figures, party faithful, and community leaders in a major demonstration of electoral strength and unity across the division.
Princess. Animashaun’s campaign continues to gather momentum, anchored on measurable results, people-focused leadership, and a bold vision for a more prosperous Epe.
