A ferry service with 450 vehicles parking capacity with ferry boats as provided by LAGFERRY to transport commuters from Epe to Lagos will begin in February 2022. Construction of Ikesan street and Adeyemi Akinsanya roads would materialise in the coming year.”
Speaking further the Lawmaker, who is aspiring for a 4th term in office, disclosed that he was committed to delivering the yearnings of his constituents.
He took time to read a long list of projects and programs which his leadership has facilitated, some of which are the purchase and installation of Electric Transformers to streets at Itungbeyin, Uraka, Oke Balogun, Isale Agoro, Oke-Iposu, Ajegunle, Moshalashi Street, Ajagonobe, amongst several others.
He added that he had in the past made provision of several Borehole projects; Fencing and construction of blocks of classrooms at Erepoto Primary School, St. Michael Primary School, St. Theresa Primary School, L. A Primary School and the completion of Block of Classrooms at Epe Girls High School.

In addition to that of Ita-Opo, he promised that traffic lights will be erected at Ita-Marun, Ayetoro, Cele bus stop, T-Junction and Epe Roundabout to prevent accidents. The LED lights and Solar-powered lights will also be installed in Epe and across Wards C1 and D1.
He, thereafter, revealed that he has synthesised and made compendiums at the last stakeholders meeting to attend to road networks across the constituency.
Hon. Tobun, however, stated that since there are several constituencies in Lagos State, the budget can not cater for all at once and therefore pleaded for understanding.
Speaking in an interview with EKO HOT BLOG, Epe All Progressives Congress (APC) Local Government Area (LGA) ChairmanComrade Toyin Gbadamosi, was also hopeful of good tidings for the people of Epe in the new year.
He admonished the party faithful to work assiduously for the party to return to power in the next general election.
While thanking God for his emergence as Chairman of the party, he also appreciated the political leaders for supporting his emergence and promised to deliver their mandate.
He, thereafter, disclosed that the tenure of Hon Abiodun Tobun has witnessed tremendous achievement, stating that such was the reason his people are swarming around him for yet another deserving term in office without being coerced.
On the emergence of several aspirants jostling for the party’s House of Assembly ticket come 2023, he said:
“We are one single family. After the exercise, we will come back as one. In the process of aspiration, we should see ourselves as a member of the same family and on that note, we should only focus on what we want to do to the people and make sure we contain our supporters on their utterances and actions during the campaign period. I will make sure I try my best to make sure that there is no rancour during the campaigns.”
Earlier in their remarks at the event, notable APC leaders and political associates who pitched their tent with the ‘Tobun For Real Team’ such as Pastor Segun Olulade(Segson); Dr AbdulHakeem Adetugbobo, Convener Asiwaju Grassroots Talk (AGT); The Co-ordinator of Tobun For Real Team, Prince Wale Idowu; The Chief Adviser, Tobun For Real Team, Hon. Bola Iberu; applauded the sterling performance of the Lawmaker and therefore admonished the good people of Epe to support his candidacy.
They argued that several Lawmakers in the country have served for several terms of which he should not be different. To back up their claims, they disclosed that the Speaker of Federal House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila; the Speaker, Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa; and a few others are very good examples.
The highpoint of the colourful event was the presentation of gifts to some staunch supporters who correctly answered questions on some of the notable achievements of the Lawmaker. Also, constituents who graced the event were treated to an array of fun with food, drinks, music and dance from the stable of a popular musician, Dr Ola Benson, with the stage name Dokky 3 in 1 and his Apajufugos Tungba Band.
