Princess Adenike Adedoyin-Ajayi proceeded, "What am seeing here is considered world class standard, I guess the reason why we've not heard much about this structure is due to lack of adequate publicity, and I want to strongly urge the CEO of this influential contour to execute more advertising and propaganda"
Discovering the structure also epitomizes 7 different studios (including painting, graphics, animation, ceramics, textiles and the newly built fashion room) with a lot of production machines and in-house manufactured fabrics, the PS explored opportunities to unlock channel for active partnership from the ministry, enabling community development liaison with the Art Centre
She continued, "Everything about this art centre is unique and different from what I've seen across Lagos state. And also after seeing students (from Laspotech, Yabatech and Ambrose Ali University in Ekpoma) presently undergoing their IT training, I crave to commend this organisation and establishment to go on with the good works been performed here" Recounting the visionary path of the gallery, Dr Oshodi Seyi Paul, in his return speech of appreciation to the permanent secretary averred that the centre decided to reside in Ikorodu based on it's mission and capacity scope, not only in exhibition of art works, but also in production and training aspects of the organisation

"Here in Ikorodu we're expanding everyday, we recently acquired a plot of land and half by the side of the gallery to further enhance our structure in the area of cinematic live arts productions"
"We're gazing at more partnership with the lagos state ministry of tourism, arts and culture for active partnership to promote a great relationship, although we have taken note of the suggestions made by our amiable permanent Secretary on the areas of more publicity and awareness" Dr Oshodi Paul (CEO Oshodi Arts Gallery) enlarged
