Lagos state governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode and Her Excellency, Mrs Bolanle Ambode on Sunday organised 7 hours praise session to show appreciation to God almighty for his protection since the beginning of his administration.
While speaking to news men at the event yesterday, The Coordinator of Itesiwaju Ipinle Eko Vanguard, Mr. Seyi Bamigbade described the outgoing governor of Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, as “a doer and bureaucrat per excellence who Lagosians will never forget”.
Seyi, said that Ambode’s achievements were abundant and many for any resident to gloss over or forget soon.
“We commend the outgoing Governor, His Excellency Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, for the great works he has been doing in the state for the past three and half years.
"Mr Akinwunmi Ambode has demonstrated his genuine sincerity of purpose and pro-people’s policy in governance which has distinguished him as an achiever in less than four years between 2015 and 2019.
“The working governor has touched almost every nook and crannies in the state in terms of developmental projects that are visible for any doubting Thomas to see."
Seyi highlighted some achievements of Ambode to include massive investment in security, road infrastructure, bridges, transport, education, youths’ empowerment and employment.
“We can see a fortified security in Lagos with N6.6 billion equipment for security agencies, massive road rehabilitation and reconstruction of inner roads.
“Ambode’s assent to Lagos Neighbourhood Safety Corps Law to increase security in the communities across the state is highly memorable.
“We also see payment of backlog arrears for retirees, setting up of N25 billion Employment Trust Fund and employment of 1, 300 teachers to revive primary education.
“We can also notice upgrade of schools’ infrastructure, massive light up of Lagos highways and streets. All these and many others to mention but a few are what the governor has done in just 46 months in office,” he said.
According to him, within the last three and half years, Ambode has convinced Lagosians that a greater Lagos is achievable through tremendous social infrastructure and people’s engagement in governance.
Those who performed at the event included: Tope Alabi, Yetunde Aare, Adedamola Akiogbe Big B, Tosin Alao and many other gospel singers.
