Lagos State.
Dear Sir,
LETTER OF CONGRATULATIONS.
I am writing formally to congratulate you on your recent election as the chairman of our Local Government Council Once again, accept my sincere congratulations on your well-deserved victory. I wish you a successful and fruitful tenure i in office and I strongly believe that your tenure will bring rapid development to our locality and to the nation in general. God will surely guide you towards the path of peaceful reign and may you never derail from your plans for our local government area as you stated in your manifesto before election.
However, I wish to use this medium to draw your attention to two priority needs of the people in our area. As you know, Ikeja Local Government area is populated by people who are mostly farmers. Our area would have been the food basket of the state if the past chairmen had paid attention to the needs of the farmers. Farmers in the locality are hardworking but there is no incentive for them. I am sure that if they are encouraged through the provision of farm implements and tools. chemicals and fertilizers, they can feed the whole state. Since you are the chairman of the grass root government that is very close to them you would do much to boost their morale if you could take it as a matter of priority and urgency to provide all the necessary chemicals and implements for them.
In addition to this. our locality needs good roads which will link our locality with the urban cities in the state. If we have good road network, it will help the farmers and other categories of people living in our area It will encourage the people from outside the area to set up agro-based cottage industries in the area where they can get raw materials for their products. Moreover, your government will be able to generate a lot of revenue from this development which I believe is going to be a deviation from the past administrations who had always relied on tenement rates and revenue realized from local markets.
I wish you success in your tenure as the chairman of our local government council.
Yours faithfully.

Idowu Sobowale.
