HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Ojodu Local Council Development Area was created as a result of the yearnings of the people following the referendum for the creation of additional Local governments in Lagos state. Ojodu Local Council Development Area was carved out of the old Ikeja Local Government in October, 2003 by a bill of the Lagos State House of Assembly under the administration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu the erstwhile Executive Governor of Lagos state. This led to the creation of additional 37 Local Council Development Areas with the existing 20 Local Governments. This creation brought tremendous improvement and rapid development in the living standard of the people of the six wards of Ojodu Local Council Development Area.
