After introduction of the state executive and executive of Amuwo Odofin present by the Deputy Coordinator, Comrade Lawal Jimoh, he stated the purpose of their visit as being an avenue to let the community know and feel the presence of the association but that wouldn't augur well without first paying homage to the opinion leaders in the community.

Corroborating him, the state coordinator, Comrade Akanni Micheal, stated further saying the association decided to reach out to all communities in the state and let people that matters know that their exist youths who are not destructive because of the experiences of the End Sars movement and effects of Covid 19' pandemic which has led a lot of youths into untoward avenues... The state coordinator of Lagos Community Youth emphasized the association's proposed community town hall meeting which will bring all and sundry together at the community level to look at the common problems ravaging each community and look for the way forward.

The Apase of Kuje Amuwo Land was impressed by the submissions of the youth initiative and he, on behalf of the Alamuwo of Kuje Amuwo Land thanked the youths for their insights and pledged his total support to the association. 

The Apase was inducted as an honourary member of the association at the end of the day.

After leaving the Alamuwo's palace, the Youth proceeded to the palace of  Alado of Ado Land Oba Abdul Lateef Olayinka Ado...
