He stated that the recent #EndSARS protests brought out the need for the government to double their efforts and prioritize youth development and empowerment.

The governor however warned youths against the destruction of government’s assets built with public funds.

Sanwo-Olu who inaugurated each of the three-story buildings in separate ceremonies disclosed that the decision of the council leadership in Agboyi-Ketu to name the edifice after Osinowo testified to the contributions he made to the development of the council.

“It is important to emphasize the need for all of us to understand that public infrastructure is part of our commonwealth being provided with public funds. We must safeguard them against vandalism, as witnessed in the state a couple of weeks ago,” he said.

The governor, during the project commissioning at Apapa-Iganmu LCDA, announced the immediate appointment of Babatunde Adewale as the Special Adviser on Community Development.
