The immediate-past Nigerian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, Ambassador Sarafa Tunji Isola, has congratulated Comrade Akeem Abiodun Lasisi on his re-election as the Chairman of Ogun State chapter of the Trade Union Congress (TUC).

In a congratulatory statement personally signed by him and made available on Friday morning in Abuja, Isola described the re-election as well-deserved.

“With great joy and admiration, I, extend my warmest congratulations to Comrade Akeem Abiodun Lasisi on your remarkable re-election today, Thursday, August 21, 2025, as the Chairman of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), Ogun State.

“Your renewed mandate is not only a personal triumph but also a clear testament to the confidence and trust that Ogun workers have in your purposeful and people-driven leadership.”

“As has been rightly said,“The strength of a union lies not in the numbers it commands, but in the unity it sustains and the courage of its leadership.”

“By overwhelmingly returning you to office, the workers of Ogun State have spoken with one voice, affirming the truth that:“Every poll victory is not just a count of ballots, but a resounding measure of trust, belief, and destiny entrusted to leadership,” he said.

The ex-envoy added that “This victory is a beacon of continuity, a triumph of unity, and a bold statement that labour remains the backbone of democracy and social justice. I am confident that under your second tenure, the TUC will soar to greater heights, advancing workers’ rights, fostering industrial harmony, and promoting the dignity of labour across Ogun State.

“On this historic day, I celebrate you, Comrade Chairman, and pray for renewed wisdom, strength, and divine guidance as you steer the affairs of the union in this new chapter.”
