He stressed the Lagos State Government (LASG) has fast-tracked completion and delivery of key infrastructure, which include Imota Rice Mill, 27-kilometre Blue Line and 32-kilometre Red Line rail projects.

The government noted that the parley was organised with the ultimate goal of seeking inputs of critical public sector stakeholders.

It also stated that the forum would create strategic ways to implement ideas that would alleviate the suffering of the masses, while also improving life quality, as well as economic development

According to Sanwo-Olu, the current administration is more committed to the present and future than the past in the Centre of Excellence.

Mr. Gboyega Akosile, Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to Sanwo-Olu, in a statement titled, ‘Infrastructure Delivery: ‘Lagos in its Harvest Period’ – Sanwo-Olu’, issued Friday, February 19, 2022, said the governor shared the strides recorded by his administration in the previous year, and review upcoming programmes for more impactful results.

The Executive arm, which he leads, had consistently thrown its doors open to diverse opinions and views, said the government.

He further stated the forum has become a part of the government’s effort at distributing  development projects across the state.

Sanwo-Olu said: “This administration, from the outset, did not delude itself into thinking it had the monopoly of knowledge with regard to finding the right solutions to the myriad challenges confronting the state.

“This explains why we have consistently thrown our doors open to diverse opinions and views from various sources, while also creating a forum to rub minds with all critical stakeholders with a view to achieving the Greater Lagos of our dream.”

The governor as well noted: “The remarkable strides attained in the last two-and-a-half years would have been impossible, but for the efforts of everyone gathered at this forum today.

“The past year was particularly remarkable for us in our aspiration to improve infrastructure across the state, many of which have been commissioned, thus giving Lagosians a new lease of life.”

He said: “As a forward-looking government, we are more focused on the present and the future than the past, because, no matter the level of successes it had brought to us, the past is no longer as important as the present and the future.â€

Sanwo-Olu declared that his administration has not let down the electorate.

He said his administration boasts of visible achievements with great impact to showcase as the first four-year tenure of his government draws to a close May 2023.
