Speaking to journalists during a media retreat in Lagos on Saturday, Daniel noted that his administration in Ogun State adopted several development initiatives inspired by the Lagos government under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He described the Lekki-Epe Expressway project as a reflection of Sanwoolu’s creative leadership. “As someone who had lived most of my life in Lagos, I could recognise a working government when I see one.
Lagos is the flagship of development and a model for our national psyche, benefitting from continuous visionary leadership and deliberate careful planning since 1999,” Daniel said.
The former governor further praised the introduction of environmental sanitation day, describing it as a “loud initiative” that demonstrates the commitment of Governor Sanwoolu and his team to sustainable governance and civic responsibility.

The Opawole and Daniel families mourn the passing of their beloved matriarch, Chief Mrs. Sabainah Ibironke Opawole, née Osoba, who died peacefully after a brief illness on Thursday 2nd of July, 2026 at the age of 93.
Born on 23rd April 1933 to Princess Mariam Ladigbolu of the revered Ladigbolu family of Oyo Kingdom and the Late Rev. O. Osoba of Olodo Village, Abeokuta, the late Princess Sabainah lived a long and graceful life anchored in faith. She was a devoted Christian of the Baptist denomination until her passing, and her life stood as a quiet testament to devotion, family, and enduring values.
She is survived by several children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren, including Her Excellency Yeye Olufunke Daniel, former First Lady of Ogun State and wife of Otunba Senator Gbenga Daniel. Her passing has drawn an outpouring of condolences from family, friends, and associates across Ogun State and beyond, many of whom remember her as a woman of grace, strength, and unshaken faith.
The family has confirmed that funeral arrangements will be announced publicly in due course, and has appealed for prayers and understanding as they navigate this period of loss.
