Sanwo-Olu Resumes Office

New Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu resumes work on Thursday.

Naija News reports that he met with civil servants, charging them to rededicate themselves to work and vowed that he would rid the state of potholes, as well as tackle the issue of minimum wage.

Upon his arrival, massive crowd welcomed the governor into the government secretariat in Alausa as he visited the Ministry of the Environment, Land and Physical Planning, where he addressed jubilant workers.

Sanwo-Olu moved to the Adeyemi-Bero Auditorium, where he met thousands of civil servants and later toured the secretariat, terminating at the Car Park where he promised to provide civil servants with 40 new buses to replace the dilapidated ones.

“We will look for ways to solve traffic in Lagos State. We have to start from our home and one of the things is to speak with the Head of Service to re-fleet all buses immediately. Our job is a tough one but we will do it. I will give you transportation, but you have to rededicate yourself to work. I will give you between 30 and 40 buses in a couple of days.”

“I know there is no light, no benches, but let us think and innovate on how to bake a bigger cake. We will sort out the issues around minimum wage. Lagosians have to feel you from day one. I love you all,” he said.
