The APC chieftain hails from the royal family of Kweme Kingdom in Badagry West Local Council Development Area (LCDA), where she has established a strong presence in grassroots politics and community engagement.

Before her current role in the party, she served as Supervisory Councillor for Agriculture and Social Services in Badagry West LCDA.

An official announcement from the party is expected in the coming days.
