The Lead Visioner of the Lagos4Lagos Movement and former Lagos State gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran (JANDOR), acknowledge, appreciate and commend the trio of Hon. James Faleke, Hon. Jimi Benson, and Hon. Enitan Badru for their bold and progressive step in sponsoring a constitutional amendment bill seeking to upgrade Lagos State’s 37 Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) to full-fledged Local Government Areas.

JANDOR applauds this initiative, recognizing it as a long-overdue step toward deepening grassroots governance, improving service delivery, and ensuring that Lagosians enjoy the full benefits of decentralization. The move aligns with the aspirations of the people of Lagos, who have long yearned for full autonomy and federal recognition of their LCDAs.

Hon. James Abiodun Faleke (Ikeja Federal Constituency), Hon. Babajimi Benson (Ikorodu Federal Constituency), and Hon. Enitan Dolapo Badru (Lagos Island I Federal Constituency), alongside 19 other lawmakers sponsored the proposed legislation which has successfully scaled its second reading in the House of Representative.

“This legislative push is a significant milestone in our collective quest for a more functional and efficient local government system in Lagos State. By sponsoring this amendment, Hon. Faleke, Hon. Benson, and Hon. Badru have demonstrated true representation, putting the interests of Lagosians first,” JANDOR stated.

He further urged all stakeholders, including other lawmakers, political leaders, and Lagos residents, to support the bill’s passage, emphasizing that upgrading the LCDAs will promote equitable development, improve infrastructural growth, and strengthen governance at the grassroots level.

Dupe Olusola, Founder of the Next Generation Foundation and a transformational leader with vast experience spanning hospitality, finance, agribusiness, SME growth, and private equity, delivered a powerful keynote address at the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) Nigeria Office’s IP & Women Business Summit 2025.

The event, held at the United Nations House in Abuja on Thursday, March 20, 2025, brought together female entrepreneurs and professionals to explore the intersection of intellectual property (IP) and business growth.

In her inspiring speech, Olusola emphasized the importance of personal branding and intellectual property protection as critical tools for women in business. She acknowledged the overwhelming interest in the event, noting how many women were eager to participate.

“That energy speaks to our collective thirst for growth and our commitment to being better,” she remarked.

Olusola highlighted the essence of personal branding, stating that a brand is more than a logo or a tagline—it is an individual’s reputation, voice, and the unique value they bring to the marketplace. She urged women to embrace their authenticity, stand for something meaningful, and remain consistent in their brand messaging.

“Authenticity is key. Your journey, including the challenges, is what makes you unique. Integrity and consistency will set you apart in your industry,” Olusola noted.

She also underscored the significance of intellectual property in protecting personal and business brands.

Encouraging women to safeguard their work, she stated, “We invest years into crafting our stories and expertise—so why leave them vulnerable? Intellectual property protection is not just for corporations; it is for every entrepreneur, every innovator, and every woman who wants to safeguard her legacy.”

Highlighting the financial impact of a strong personal brand, Olusola explained how it opens doors to new business opportunities, leadership roles, and partnerships. “Your network is your net worth.

A well-managed personal brand directly translates into increased revenue and influence,” she said.

She further explored key strategies for brand visibility, emphasizing the need to show up consistently, engage in meaningful networking, and leverage digital platforms to amplify one’s voice.

She encouraged attendees to be bold in advocating for themselves and their ideas, reminding them that success is built through persistence and resilience.

Concluding her speech, Olusola challenged the audience to take ownership of their personal brands and intellectual assets. “Audit your brand today. Do you own your name, your logo, and the content you produce? Have you taken the necessary steps to protect your identity and ideas? Your brand is not just who you are today—it is an asset that will create opportunities and impact for generations to come.”

Her message resonated deeply with attendees, many of whom left the event empowered with new strategies to strengthen and protect their personal and business brands.

The IP & Women Business Summit 2025 served as a crucial platform for knowledge-sharing, inspiring female entrepreneurs to harness the power of intellectual property to secure their businesses and legacies.
