On Saturday, April 12, 2026, the Ideal Club of Lagos, a socio-political group led by Distinguished Senator Ganiu Olarewaju Solomon (GOS), the apex leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Mushin and Odi-Olowo/Ojuwoye, as well as a member of the Lagos State Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC), welcomed new members into its fold.

The new entrants were led by Hon. Bunmi Obakoya, a proud indigene of Mushin.

In his welcome address, Senator GOS warmly received the new members and their leadership, noting Hon. Obakoya’s longstanding commitment to the APC.

“You are welcome to our fold. Hon. Bunmi Obakoya has been an active member of our great party, the APC, and had earlier expressed her desire to join us. We are delighted to have you and pray that your membership in Ideal Club will bring progress and greater achievements,” he said.

Responding, Hon. Obakoya expressed deep appreciation to the leadership for granting her request and praised Senator GOS for his exemplary leadership.

“I am here to make an impact and contribute meaningfully to the growth of this club. My decision to join Ideal Club is long overdue because Senator GOS is a leader I admire greatly. He is my leader and will always remain so. I have come with my supporters who have stood by me through thick and thin, and we pledge our loyalty and commitment to the ideals of this club. Thank you all for the warm reception,” she stated.

The event was marked by a colourful display, as supporters donned coordinated blue T-shirts featuring images of Senator GOS and Hon. Obakoya. Some also carried placards signaling her intention to contest in the 2027 Lagos State House of Assembly election for Mushin Constituency I.
