SPECIAL INAUGURAL EDITION<br />

......................<br />

My Name is Moses Patrick and there are quite a few things I expect from the new governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu:<br />

1: Reduction of Traffic on our Roads<br />

2: Cleanliness of the state; Virtually everywhere is dirty, so we have to engage people that will do a thorough<br />

cleanup of the state.<br />

3: Unemployment: I would expect him to Create New Jobs for Lagosians, so that more people will be recruited<br />

into the working class level.<br />

This also means that more roads need to be built in order to reduce the traffic that might be created as a result.<br />

As for people in my field of work, which is engineering, I believe the governor can ensure that every household<br />

and business in the state,have a prepaid electricity meter. People all over the country are clamouring for that and I<br />

believe it's something he can look into.<br />

My name is Akintade Olayinka Victor, I work in<br />

Dolphin Estate for Gosslink Engineering<br />

Limited.<br />

I believe God himself anointed Mr. Babajide<br />

Sanwo-Olu to be our governor and not any<br />

man. If it were to be by the will of man, he will<br />

not be successful during the past elections.<br />

I will like to encourage him to continue the<br />

projects left behind by his predecessor. Most<br />

governors would not continue from where the<br />

previous governor stopped, but I would<br />

encourage him to promote continuity.<br />

I would also like him to look into improving the<br />

standard of education in the state. Another<br />

area I would like for him to look into are street<br />

roads.<br />

We all are praying for better Lagos, we want<br />

Lagos to be like the U.K, US, Dublin, and<br />

Canada and this means that there's a lot of<br />

work for him to do in order for Lagos to reach<br />

the heights that those cities have attained. I<br />

expect him to visit other countries and come<br />

with results that will improve the state.<br />

As an engineer, I think the current issue of<br />

PHCN delays with distributing prepaid metres,<br />

is one pressing issue that needs to be looked<br />

into and resolved as soon as possible. I will like<br />

him to see into this as I believe it's very<br />

important.<br />

42<br />

My name is Temitayo Israel, I work at Gosslink<br />

Engineering Limited<br />

First and foremost I would like to welcome the<br />

new governor, Mr. Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu<br />

into office.<br />

I expect him to focus on the educational sector of<br />

the state. I understand that there are other sectors<br />

in the state that demand attention but I feel like<br />

the educational sector is poorly monitored and it<br />

is the same sector we might all turn to in a few<br />

years time as it is the bedrock for the future of the<br />

state.<br />

Let the school be a training ground when it comes<br />

to developing skills. What we need in Lagos state<br />

is people who are great with creativity who can<br />

actually mentor students who can bring in<br />

something new to the state.<br />

I work in the power sector and in Lagos, I must<br />

admit that power supply is nothing to write home<br />

about.<br />

The power sector is very cogent; when you<br />

channel more resources on building human efforts<br />

it will go a long way towards yielding increase<br />

concerning the capital aspect. So I expect the<br />

incoming governor to look into the building of<br />

manpower.<br />

There are many other areas of energy; we have<br />

the solar, wind, hydro, and renewable energy<br />

through biomass and other sources of renewable<br />

energy, yet we are not actually making use of any<br />

of them. We are not taking advantage of their<br />

resources.<br />

I generally will expect the incoming government to<br />

focus more and increase the capacity of power<br />

supply not only on the electrical and the manual<br />

part that we use as before but with the many<br />

available options that can be explored.
