DDM News

FESTAC TOWN, LAGOS – As the 2025 local government elections approach, one name is rapidly gaining traction across Festac, Amuwo-Odofin, Ago, Okota, and surrounding areas, Okechukwu Ubaka, a dynamic grassroots leader and community developer now vying for the position of Councillor for Ward C (K).

Diaspora Digital Media (DDM) reports that Okechukwu Ubaka, popularly referred to as “Okey Is Okay”, has become a household name among residents, particularly in Festac Town and its neighboring districts.

His candidacy has drawn widespread public attention, not only because of his youthful energy and bold vision but also due to his undeniable track record of selfless community service.

Long before his political ambition became public, Ubaka had already earned the admiration of many locals by personally financing and executing multiple development projects in the area.

Residents recall how he took initiative where others waited for government action, repairing roads, restoring public lighting, clearing drainage systems, and supporting neighborhood safety initiatives.

Community members have described him as a “servant-leader” whose actions consistently reflect his words.

According to local testimonials, Ubaka has never been the type to make empty promises.

His passion for Festac’s growth, coupled with his constant presence and approachability, has made him a symbol of hope for sustainable development in Ward C (K).

Supporters say that his campaign is not driven by personal gain but by a vision to uplift his constituency.

“We don’t need imported politicians,” said a market woman in Amuwo-Odofin.

“We need someone who lives among us and feels our pains. That’s Okey for you.”

Many residents agree that his long-standing commitment to community empowerment speaks louder than campaign slogans.

With mounting grassroots support, observers suggest that Ubaka could be on the path to a landslide victory, provided voter turnout aligns with the current public enthusiasm.

In a climate where political integrity is rare, Okechukwu Ubaka’s record of action-before-title has earned him the trust of constituents.

His message is clear and simple: “Leadership is not a title, it’s service, and I’ve been serving.”
