Today, we brought The Lagos Promise (Ileri Eko) to Epe for our flag-off campaign rally and the warmth and enthusiasm with which you welcomed us meant a great deal to me. Thank you, Epe, for showing up.
The Lagos Promise is about building on the progress we have made, taking it further and ensuring more people and communities feel the impact. For Epe, that means better transport connections, expanded waterways through Omi-Eko, stronger schools and healthcare and more opportunities for our people to earn, grow and prosper.
My commitment to Epe, just as it is to every part of Lagos, is personal. Every community matters and our work must continue to create opportunities and improve everyday life for everyone, leaving no one behind.
As we say, Gbese ni ileri. A promise is a debt. I understand the responsibility that comes with every commitment we make and I remain committed to working with you to deliver on it.
Thank you, Epe, for your warmth welcome, support and confidence. I do not take any of it for granted.
Mr Doherty was clearly confused at the display of such crassness by Obi and his supporters, when they started singing the old national anthem. Not sure the man understands what he signs up for with this man. It’s never too late for him. He should not allow his credibility to be stained by a messianic desperado
We have commenced the offloading of three new train sets, comprising 24 coaches, for the Red Line.
Each eight-coach train can carry up to 2,000 passengers per trip. This means more capacity, more room for commuters and the opportunity to run more frequent services along the Oyingbo-Agbado corridor.
The trains were procured with the support of the Federal Government under the leadership of HE President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.
We are making steady progress towards putting these trains into passenger service before the end of the year, as promised.
More trains, better journeys and an easier way to get around Lagos. We keep moving.
A Presidential candidate who is cheerleading his supporters to revolt against the government by singing the old and abolished national anthem is nothing but a treasonous human being. The government should pay more attention to this man before he divides Nigeria completely because of his selfish political ambition.
Peter Obi has started giving Nnamdi Kanu’s vibe. If he loses the next election, he will declare himself the winner and run a parallel government.
A couple of days ago, we rolled out 11 new electric buses across Lagos, the first batch of 50 from our partnership with Oando Clean Energy Limited.
After a successful test run with two buses, we are now scaling up. Working with the private sector allows us to cut down on emissions, clean up our air and make daily commuting better without waiting decades to get it done.
These 11 buses are on the road now and the rest are on the way. We are building a transport system that actually works for Lagosians today and holds up for the future.
When the institutions meant to uphold the law become part of the political conflict, what happens to democracy?
Poland’s confrontation over judicial appointments has escalated into a standoff between Prime Minister Donald Tusk and President Karol Nawrocki, with competing claims of authority and police involvement at the Constitutional Tribunal. The crisis has brought the independence of the judiciary and the limits of political power into sharp focus.
The lesson: democracy is not secured simply by having elections or a constitution. It depends on whether those in power respect the institutions, laws and boundaries that restrain them. When political interests begin to override constitutional order, the entire system is put at risk.
