He was one of the pioneers of the Nigeria Navy Secondary School Abeokuta.The then Navy Captain Mohammed Lawal, invited the Nigerian Navy to consider a location of the defunct St Leo's Teachers' Training College at Ibara Abeokuta (www.nnssab.net)on a hilly Onikolobo site.

This premises had been abandoned and merely serve as a route to the Catholic Compound and was also used for administering a newly conceived secondary school in that name.

The Nigerian Navy considered the site and found it suitable.

Lawal's administration was marked by his swift and precise approach, reminiscent of his military background, in tackling various socio-economic challenges.

One of Lawal's notable achievements was the implementation of a comprehensive road development and rehabilitation program.

Numerous roads in Ilorin, as well as other major towns and villages across the state, were resurfaced under this initiative.

This investment aimed to ensure effective and efficient healthcare delivery throughout the state.

The improvement of the Water Supply Scheme and water installations that serviced approximately 180 communities also received substantial resources.

To alleviate the acute shortage of residential accommodation in Ilorin, Lawal's administration initiated the construction of 150 two-bedroom houses in Irewole Ilorin at a cost of N180 million.

Additionally, they reconstructed and completed the previously abandoned Woman's Development Centre along Ajase-Ipo Road, amounting to a cost of N36 million.
