On Friday, 30th of October, I will present my manifesto for Lagos, outlining my vision and priorities for the years ahead.
My focus is to sustain our progress, address areas that need more attention and create opportunities for every Lagosian to thrive.
The future of Lagos must put people first and our plans must reflect their hopes, concerns and everyday realities.
From completing and connecting our rail lines, improving road and water transportation and expanding access to affordable housing, to strengthening security and upgrading healthcare across our 57 LGAs and LCDAs, we must keep making life better. Every community deserves safe roads, reliable public services and opportunities to prosper.
Education, skills development and job creation will remain central to our vision. We must equip young people with the knowledge, technology and practical skills to succeed, support entrepreneurs and small businesses and ensure that talent translates into opportunity, regardless of background, gender, religion or place of origin.
We must also protect our environment through better waste management, flood prevention, improved drainage and the protection of our coastal communities. We will continue to promote responsible governance, support traders and businesses and manage public resources to deliver real value.
Progress is not just about how far we have come but how many lives we improve along the way. Building on the foundation laid by successive administrations, we must protect what works, improve what needs attention and embrace ideas that meet Lagos’ changing needs.
My commitment is to a Lagos that is safer, more accessible, prosperous and inclusive. A Lagos where opportunity reaches every community and every resident has a stake in our shared future.
Together, we will build on our progress and move Lagos forward with purpose, accountability and the people at the centre of every decision.
That is my PROMISE.
We often confuse deliverance with cleansing. Deliverance is the breaking of the chain; cleansing is the removal of the stain. One gets you out of the prison, but the other removes the filth of the prison from your soul. Thankfully, Jesus Christ has the power for both. 🧵
At a recent media gathering, I said the newly completed Opebi-Odoiya Alaro Bridge would open to traffic by the end of September, based on the work plan presented to me. With work still ongoing, I visited the site today to assess progress and understand the reasons for the delay.
The 25-metre steel monument being installed at the site is designed to preserve the history of the Cane Village, which once stood there and was known for its cane market. The design features four hands of cane weaving, a tribute to this local heritage and a new landmark that will add to the beauty of the corridor.
Three of the four steel components have been fully assembled and fitted, while the final piece is being installed. Safety remains our priority so we cannot open the road until every section is securely in place.
The monument is now 80% complete and we need just a few more days to finish the work. I understand the inconvenience this delay has caused motorists and I ask for a little more patience as we bring the project to completion. I assure you that the bridge will be fully operational before the holidays giving motorists a smoother journey and Lagos a new landmark.
