Omo’ba Hammed Olalekan Aroyewun (HOA), Executive Chairman, Igbogbo/Baiyeku Local Council Development Area (LCDA), has celebrated the resilience of girls as children and their exceptional nature.

“On behalf of the good people of Igbogbo/Baiyeku LCDA, I join the global community in celebrating the resilient girls of Igbogbo/Baiyeku LCDA on this year’s International Day of the Girl Child. Today, we honour your incredible spirit, your boundless potential, and your exceptional courage.
“This year’s theme, “The Girl I Am, The Change I Lead: Girls on the Frontlines of Crisis,” powerfully acknowledges a profound truth; you are not just passive victims in the face of challenges, but active, powerful agents of change.
“In times of difficulty, whether in our communities, schools, or families, we see girls stepping up with remarkable bravery, intelligence, and compassion to lead, to heal, and to innovate.”
The council boss lauded the Girl Child{ren} in Igbogbo/Baiyeku LCDA for their impacts and showing positive leadership traits.
“Here in Igbogbo/Baiyeku LCDA, we see this leadership in action every day. We see it in the girl who advocates for her education, in the young innovator creating solutions for our community, and in the compassionate leader who supports her peers.
“You are on the frontlines, not just of future leadership, but of present transformation.
“To every girl in Igbogbo/Baiyeku LCDA; Never doubt the power of your voice or the strength of your dreams. The girl you are today is the change-maker our world needs. We see you, we celebrate you, and we stand with you.
“Happy International Day of the Girl Child 2025!”
