FOLLOWING the declaration of October 2013 as Energy Conservation month by the Lagos State Government, Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola will on Friday,September 27, 2013 at 6:00 pm host a Google Hangout with popular musician MI and citizens to discuss energy conservation and the energy initiatives undertaken by the state government.
Fashola will be the first governor in West Africa to use this platform in sensitizing citizens on Energy Conservation behaviour and thus continually re-affirming the state position as the “centre for excellence”. Already, conversations are ongoing about energy conservation in Lagos State amongst citizens in particular the youths, on new media channels.

Citizens are encouraged to log on to www.lseb.gov.ng to follow instructions on how to participate at the ‘Google Hangout with BRF’ and to also follow the Governor on his Google Plus Page @ Babatunde Fashola.
Citizens are encouraged to log on through the internet to participate live. However the conversations and call-ins will be viewable to all onthe LSEB YouTube Channel post-hangout session.
They also have opportunity to win a variety of gift items such as Energy Saving Bulbs, Solar Lamps, CESM pen-drives and emblems to incentivise them and emphasise the importance of energy conservation behaviours.

In anticipation of the Energy Conservation Month, the State Government through its Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources and the implementing agency, Lagos State Electricity Board (LSEB) has developed an Energy Conservation Campaign themed “Conserve Energy, Save Money” (CESM) by deploying Behaviour Change Communication materials that carry step by step, do it yourself instructions on energy efficiency and conservation improvements to save Lagosians money and make the megacity more energy efficient.

The first energy conservation activation was carried out at the E-Center, Yaba on Saturday September 21, 2013 and the second activation will take place on Saturday September 28, 2013 at the Mega Plaza, Victoria Island Lagos by 11:00 to 8:00 pm and back at the E-Center for Saturday October 26, 2013. At the activations citizens will have the opportunity to learn how they can calculate their energy consumption on the spot thereby aiding planning to conserve energy and save money (CESM).

Tomorrow, one Mr Metuh will say Fashola is not the best gov, if Fashola is not then who is?

He builds institutions and not substance only,

He builds estates and not houses only,

He builds process and procedure and not activities only,

He builds cities and not localities,

He builds future and not present only.... Without doubt, Fashola is the best. Brick by brick we shall build Lagos State-BRF.

29th century compliant governor

Vision, future and accomplishment.
