Ijede
Ijede as a community first had a taste of what it meant to be autonomous in modern administration in 1937 known as Ijede Native Authority with a District officer as the executive head.
In 1952 under the defunct western region administration of late Chief Obafemi Awolo, Ijede Local Council was deservedly gazetted.
The situation remained until 1976 as Ijede Local Council was merged with Ikorodu Local Government under the Military Government of General Olusegun Obasanjo.
In 1980 during the administration of Governor of Lagos State, Chief Lateef Kayode Jakande, Ijede was carved out of Ikorodu as Ikorodu constituency II into Irepodun Local Government headed by Chief Amusa.
It was during the administration of Gen. Ibrahim Babangida in 1985 that Irepodun Local Government was re-merged to Ikorodu Local Government. Ijede Local Government Area was later recreated in 2003, along with new 37 Local Council Development Areas during the administration of Gov. Ahmed Bola Tinubu, the Executive Governor of Lagos State.
