Lagos
State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, on Sunday assured residents of the Epe
area of Lagos State that the ancient town will witness infrastructural
development during his administration.
Ambode,
who gave the assurance while speaking at a special Ramadan Lecture held at the
premises of the Epe Local Government Area, thanked the people for the support
shown to the All Progressives Congress during the electioneering, promising
that the development of Epe was uppermost in his heart.
He
assured residents of the area that his government would reciprocate the gesture
by carrying out infrastructural projects that would make life comfortable for
them.
“I know
that a lot of us contested, but the bottom line is that I belong to this
community and whatever it is that we do, it is in the interest of this
community. We are all going to stand together to make sure that the development
of Epe is uppermost in our heart,” he said.
Ambode,
who hails from Epe, however enjoined residents to join hands with his
government, urging them to seize the period of the Ramadan to pray for the
success of his tenure in office.
He
said, “I am glad Epe is one. It pleases God that what we have missed in the
city for almost 40 years has come to us. It is now left for all of us to come
together and join hands with this government.
“There
is nothing I can do for Epe people that can be enough, but I assure you that
Epe would be a new city. All I need from you now is prayer because I am ready
to pay my dues in Epe and I will try my best to ensure that Epe and indeed
Lagos State witness all round development and transformation.”
The
guest lecturer, Dr. Nosirudeen Onibon, urged those who would form the cabinet
of the governor to imbibe the culture of moral competence in the discharge of
their duties.
He said
governance thrived on division of labour, expressing optimism that with Ambode
at the helm of affairs in the state, Lagos would witness a great deal of
development.
Has laoreet percipitur ad. Vide interesset in mei, no his legimus verterem. Et nostrum imperdiet appellantur usu, mnesarchum referrentur id vim.
