His involvement in politics grew through the APC in Lagos State. He served as the APC Chairman of Surulere Local Government and participated in several political and campaign organisations.

Since entering the House of Representatives, Laguda has been involved in legislative activities and constituency development, with attention to areas such as education, youth empowerment, infrastructure, employment and community development. He serves as the Chairman of the House Committee on Federal Polytechnics, where he provides legislative oversight on matters concerning federal polytechnic institutions across Nigeria.
