Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, on Thursday described his predecessor and Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN) as a synergy between Lagos and federal government that will accelerate and actualise his administration’s plans for infrastructural development in the state.Ambode said the state was privileged to have Fashola in charge of key federal ministries at this critical moment in the history of the state.
“We are privileged to have my predecessor in office at the centre in charge of Works, Power and Housing. This effectively means we have a synergy between Lagos and the federal government to accelerate and actualise our current plans for infrastructural development,” the governor said.
He added that though building infrastructure to improve the quality of life is a top priority in Lagos, traffic and security remain the two key priority focus areas that need urgent attention.
