The First Lady of Lagos State is the advisor to the Lagos State Governor, and often plays a role in social activism. The position is traditionally held by the wife of the Lagos State Governor, concurrent with his term of office,[1] although the Constitution of Nigeria does not recognize the office of the first lady.[2]
