The Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Honourable Femi Gbajabiamila, on Friday, June 1, 2018 donated 30 Buses,160 Motorcycles, and 25 Tricycles to residents of his constituency.
The lawmaker who represents the Surulere I constituency, made the donations as part of a project tagged, Gbaja Ride”, an empowerment programme in his Surulere 1 Federal Constituency.
On the “Gbaja Ride” initiative, the lawmaker said his idea was in redemption of his electoral promise to impact on lives. 
He explained the programme was to make life easier for residents of Surulere by easing transportation.
Gbajabiamila added that he launched the programme to promote the economic empowerment of people of the area. The lawmaker said the programme was in furtherance of the previous programmes he had initiated to empower the people of the area. He listed some of the initiatives and interventions as the installation of power solar in 400 homes in Surulere, the renovation of Modele Mathew Road and the rehabilitation of Karimu 1 and Karimu 2 road network in the area.
He urged those yet to benefit from the empowerment programme to be patient as he would soon organise another programme in which they could benefit.
The lawmaker enjoined residents to obtain their Permanent Voter Cards as that would enable them to participate in the electoral process. “I enjoin all constituents to participate in government at all levels.Therefore we all need to register to vote. “It is our right to go to the nearest INEC centre to register. For those who misplaced their cards or have their PVC damaged just apply to the same office for replacement.” he said.
Speaking, the state Commissioner for Sports and Youths Development, Mr Agboola Dabiri commended Gbajabiamila for his many programmes to touch the lives of residents. He said the people of Surulere were proud of him and would always give their support to him all the time.
The Secretary of APC in the state, Dr Wale Ahmed said Gbajabiamila was a good ambassador of the party. He said he was doing the party proud at the National Assembly as well in the state.
It was also fanfare as comedians, musicians and dancers entertained guests.
