The Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Saturday charged Heads of Agencies/Parastatals of government to renew their determination to build a Lagos that is not only the commercial hub of Nigeria but also a model of good governance and sustainable development for the entire continent.
The Governor, who spoke through the Commissioner for the Environment and Water Resources, Barr. Tokunbo Wahab,
at the closing ceremony of the maiden retreat for Heads of Agencies/Parastals held at Jubilee Charlet, Epe, said that
working with an unwavering focus on delivering exceptional results in Lagos is most expedient.
“I want to express my sincere gratitude to each of you for your tireless dedication and service to the people of Lagos; This retreat is a crucial opportunity for us to pause, assess our progress, and re-evaluate our priorities to ensure we are effectively achieving meaningful outcomes for our community” he said.
He said government had consistently emphasized that good governance is a continuous process and the ultimate objective is to transform Lagos into a 21st-century economy that is inclusive, prosperous, and sustainable for all its citizens.
He added that the decisions everyone make today will have  lasting consequences for the future.
He stressed that  government is fully dedicated to leveraging technology to improve governance saying the Lagos Smart City initiative is not merely a concept, it is actively being implemented.
He emphasized that the government is actively digitizing government services, implementing e-governance solutions, and ensuring that every agency embraces a modern, data-driven approach to its operations.
Sanwo-Olu mentioned the LAG ID Project as an example which government is employing to build a unified identity system to make it easier for Lagosians to access government services seamlessly.
He described it as the kind of forward-thinking initiative everyone need to embrace across all sectors.
According to him, “As heads of agencies, you are custodians of public trust; The decisions you take, the policies you implement and the services you deliver directly impact the lives of Lagosians”.
