•Inaugurates 15 school projectsLagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, yesterday said his administration would continue to ensure a mutually beneficial relationship with financial institutions in the State.
“I want to implore you and your team to be intentional and think something fresh; think something different that can indeed stimulate us. You can rest assured that we know how important it is to spread our businesses and to ensure that everybody gets a part of it knowing that you and your staff will also have a corporate responsibility on the Personal Income Tax component. It is expected that we will continue to play our roles and play our parts.
Speaking earlier, George-Taylor, commended the Babajide Sanwo-Olu administration in Lagos State and wished the governor well as the 2023 general elections approach. In addition, he said press freedom was an important ingredient of any civilised democracy, noting that media practitioners in Nigeria should be given the rights and privileges to do their jobs without any hindrances.
“Media practitioners should continue to deploy their skills and intellect to check people in authority, speak truth to power and use their training and intellect to direct leadership to ensure that we are not in a banana republic. Speaking earlier, Adamu, said the choice of Lagos to celebrate 30 years anniversary of the awards in November was not accidental, noting that, “Lagos is the birth place of Nigeria’s struggle for press freedom from which all other freedoms emanate.”
The governor also unveiled a compendium detailing the infrastructural transformation that public schools in the State have undergone since 2019.
