I would like to let Lagosians know that I am excited about what lies ahead of us, I am excited about the inauguration and I am excited that we will be able to show Lagosians a clear roadmap of how we will achieve all the things we have said we will do on a month to month basis. Our government will be open, our government will be inclusive, our government will be transparent, our government will be participatory. With regards to engagements, we can continue to look at burning issues in the hearts of Lagosians that can be resolved swiftly.
We will bring about solutions that will improve the quality of life of Lagosians, we will ensure that the ease of doing business in Lagos will be part of the immediate issues we can resolve. We will ensure that all of the challenges that are within our immediate resolutions will be resolved pretty swiftly.
On the medium to long-term, we will clearly articulate our plans, policies, programs, and vision for Lagosians so that as they are being carried out. The people will know what we are doing and why we are doing them.
We will have a plan that will transparently explain to Lagosians what they should expect in one year, two years and so on.
The relationship, however, has to be both ways, so we will have to have a contract with Lagosians, regarding what the administration will be expecting from them, behavior wise, culture wise, the attitudinal change, the expectations of revenues that we will need to achieve our goals, once Lagosians fulfil their part, we will definitely fulfil our end of the bargain.
I would like to assure Lagosians that they have made the right choice and voted for the right team and the right team will ensure that the quality of life in Lagos state is improved, security of life and property is assured, ease of doing business is well defined and well anticipated, such that at the end of our first tenure, Lagosians will be most certainly better off for it.
