Hamzat disclosed his recent visits to several churches in Lagos through posts shared on his X account on Sunday, highlighting his interactions with church leaders and members.

The APC candidate first visited the Love of Christ Generation Church in Oniru, Lagos, where he joined the congregation to celebrate the church’s 19th anniversary.

Describing the milestone as an admirable achievement, Hamzat congratulated the church for its 19 years of service and impact in the community.

“Nineteen years of continuous service and impact in our communities is an admirable feat. Congratulations to the Love of Christ Generation Church and may the years ahead bring even greater blessing to our state and its people,” he wrote.

Hamzat also visited the Harvesters International Christian Centre, where he met with the church’s pastor, Bolaji Idowu, and members of the congregation during the AWAKENING 2026 programme.

He described the gathering as an opportunity for “reflection and hope,” stressing the importance of unity and shared values in building a stronger and more prosperous Lagos.

At the event, Idowu urged Hamzat to place the welfare and wellbeing of residents at the centre of his administration should he emerge as governor.

The pastor noted that many Nigerians were currently struggling with economic hardship and expressed hope that whoever emerged as governor would work towards making life easier for the people.

“Our prayer is if it’s you or anyone that gets there, all we want is an easier and softer Nigeria where our guys won’t have to do fraud and girls won’t have to sell their body to live a great life,” Idowu said.

He also commended Hamzat’s credentials and experience.

As part of his church engagements, Hamzat further met with the leadership of Christ Embassy, led by Pastor Chris Oyakhilome.

The APC candidate acknowledged the contributions of faith-based organisations to society, particularly in supporting families, empowering young people and strengthening communities.

“The impact faith-based organisations make in lifting families, supporting youth, and building our communities is invaluable,” Hamzat stated.

He added that sustainable development could only be achieved through collective efforts, saying, “real progress happens when we all build together.”

Hamzat’s series of engagements with Christian leaders and congregations comes ahead of the 2027 Lagos governorship election, as political activities and stakeholder consultations gradually intensify across the state.
