Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, says his second term administration would be additional reforms and citizen-driven policies that will touch the lives of the people of the state.
Sanwo-Olu said this while resuming work at the State Secretariat in Alausa, Lagos, on Tuesday, May 30.
Speaking on what civil servants should expect in his second term, the governor, who was accompanied by his deputy, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, said: “It is additional reforms and citizen-driven policies that will touch the lives of the people. They should know where they need to work with us on each of those policies.
“They must ensure that each time members of the public walk into the secretariat for services, they leave in assurance that we have served them in the best way.”
Engaging the officials of the Ministry of Economic Planning and Budget, Sanwo-Olu said economic planning was one of the “strong tools” used to measure how well the state government had been performing and delivering on its development agenda.

He said: “After the inauguration ceremony, it behoves on us to go back to work immediately to show Lagosians that we are ready for the job they have mandated us to do on their behalf. We resumed work today (Tuesday) and we have gone round several ministries in the civil service led by the Head of Service and the body of Permanent Secretaries.
“This objective is to encourage the staff, have an on-the-spot assessment of the working environment, and have conversation around how to ensure every staff is on board as we hit the ground running again. We are happy to have resumed work and we are excited that the entire public service is ready to continue to serve the people.”
Governor Sanwo-Olu, during his inauguration address on Monday, May 29, announced Social Inclusion, Youth, and Gender Equality as additional priorities in his governing agenda.
Sanwo-Olu said the new priorities would deepen his administration’s resolve to leave no one behind in key activities of the state.
He added that the additional pillars were deliberately not subjugated under existing programmes because of the need to have definitive strategic planning for each of them.
