The Executive Chairman of Eredo Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Hon. Ismail Monsuru Akinloye, has been named in the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign structure for the 2027 elections.
Epe Insights reports that Akinloye’s name appears among the officials listed under the LGA-LCDA Coordinators section of the Lagos State APC Campaign Council.
The published campaign council list identifies Akinloye as a Coordinator for Eredo, alongside Hon. Awonaike Babatunde Julius, who is listed as Co-Coordinator.
The appointment places the Eredo LCDA Chairman within the local government coordination structure of the party’s campaign organisation ahead of the 2027 elections.
The Lagos APC campaign council list was released in September 2026 as part of preparations for the forthcoming election cycle in the state.
The broader campaign council includes officials assigned to different directorates, geographical areas and local government areas across Lagos State.
The structure also provides for coordinators and co-coordinators at the LGA and LCDA levels to support the organisation’s activities across communities.
Akinloye’s listing under Eredo brings his role in the council’s campaign structure alongside his responsibilities as the elected chairman of the local council development area.
The role is focused on coordination at the grassroots level within Eredo LCDA, according to the published structure.
The campaign council has a wider leadership structure headed by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu as Chairman, while Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat is listed as Deputy Chairman.
Senator Musiliu Obanikoro is listed as Director General, with Hon. Rasaq Ajala as Deputy Director General and Dr. Adekunle Olayinka as Campaign Secretary.
Other members of the campaign council include political office holders, party stakeholders and representatives from different local government areas across Lagos State.
The council also contains directorates covering areas such as party affairs, administration and logistics, legal and compliance, humanitarian services, residents’ associations and other areas.
The LGA-LCDA coordination structure forms part of the wider arrangement for organising campaign activities across the state.
For Eredo LCDA, the inclusion of Akinloye in the structure places the council within the campaign organisation established for the 2027 electoral activities.
The published list also includes coordinators and co-coordinators for other local government areas and LCDAs across Lagos State.
The appointments cover communities from different parts of the state, reflecting the campaign council’s local coordination arrangement.
Akinloye’s designation comes as political parties in Lagos begin preparations for the 2027 elections.
The development is expected to involve organisational activities at ward, local government and broader state levels as the electoral cycle progresses.
The Eredo LCDA campaign structure will form part of the grassroots component of the Lagos APC campaign organisation.
As coordinator, Akinloye is listed alongside other local government-level officials responsible for campaign coordination within their respective areas.
The published list does not provide further details on specific duties assigned to individual LGA-LCDA coordinators beyond their designations.
The campaign council was reported to have been formally inaugurated on September 18, 2026, following the release of its membership structure.
The wider council includes an advisory structure with several senior political figures and other stakeholders.
The campaign organisation is preparing for the 2027 Lagos State governorship election, for which the published list identifies Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat as the APC governorship candidate and Hon. Damilola Sonayon-James as deputy governorship candidate.
At the local level, the appointment of coordinators provides a channel for the campaign organisation to establish its presence across different councils.
For Eredo, Akinloye’s designation adds a campaign coordination responsibility to his existing public office role.
The announcement has also generated congratulatory messages from individuals and groups acknowledging his inclusion in the campaign structure.
Supporters described the appointment as recognition of his leadership experience and familiarity with grassroots engagement.
Those descriptions represent the views expressed in the congratulatory message and are not independent assessments of his performance.
The appointment also places attention on Eredo LCDA as part of the wider political organisation preparing for the 2027 elections.
As campaign activities develop, further information may emerge on the responsibilities, programmes and activities of the Eredo campaign committee.
For now, the published Lagos APC campaign council list identifies Ismail Monsuru Akinloye as Coordinator for Eredo LCDA.
The development adds a new political coordination role to his public responsibilities as Executive Chairman of Eredo LCDA.
Further announcements from the party or campaign council are expected to provide additional information on local campaign activities and coordination arrangements ahead of the 2027 elections.
