… APC has lost a grassroot mobiliser
The Executive chairman Igando Ikotun LCDA Comrade Akinsanya Lasisi Ayinde, has commiserated with the Nelson family and the entire APC party on the demise of a grassrooot and a frontline politician, Chief Kemi Nelson.
Chief Nelson passed on after a brief illness on Sunday at the age of 66.
Chief Nelson stood for unity and was in forefront of championing campaigns that favoured the lives of APC members and the masses. She never gave up on any responsibility. Her contributions to the successes of APC in Lagos state and Nigeria is beyond measures,” he noted.
Akinsanya extended his condolences to the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Lagos APC family on the loss of “a consistent and faithful party member who devoted so much to the development and relevance of the party in Lagos.
Akinsanya noted the contributions of Chief Nelson as a former Commissioner for Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation in Lagos State, the State Women Leader, National Deputy Women Leader of APC, and former Executive Director of the Nigerian Social Insurance Trust Fund, remarking that she was such a grassroots mobiliser and an achiever who left her footprints wherever she served.
Her contributions to the successes of APC in Lagos state and Nigeria is beyond measures,” he noted.
“She was the only female serving member of the Lagos State Governor’s Advisory Council (GAC).”
Praying to Almighty Allah for the repose of late Kemi Nelson, Akinsanya said, her legacy will stand as an example to all of us to persist in our pursuit of progress because Mrs Nelson was a woman worth of emulation.
