The Lagos State Government is set for the registration of residents starting from January 2013.

Fully registered legal residents will be given an Identity card after registration.

The registrations of over 20million people living in Lagos is aimed at providing better governance and to control the influx of illegal citizens.

Lagos state Public Relations Officer, Mr Akiniyi who made the announcement on Thursday said every Lagosian must ensure their information is included in Lagos residents database.

“Government has the responsibility to cater for everyone residing in Lagos, regardless of the exercise to differentiate between legal residents and illegal immigrants.

November 9, 2012

Nigeria’s Lagos State Government has set January 2013 for the commencement of the registration of the estimated 21 million people resident in the state, Mr Akin Akiniyi, the Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Residents Registration Agency (LSRRA),said today. Akiniyi said the agency had commenced a pilot registration exercise with public servants, to test-run the project. He said that the objective of the registration was to provide a database of all residents in the state for better planning and governance. “Over 21 million people are estimated to be living in Lagos and there would be need for government to have their data base in its record. “The registration exercise will be carried out in view of the security situation and the influx of illegal aliens into the state, Akiniyi said. He said that all residents, irrespective of ethnic background, as well as foreigners– including tourists– would be captured in the exercise scheduled to hold between Jan. and March 2013.“Government has the responsibility to cater for everyone residing in Lagos, regardless of the state or country they came from, “ he said. Akiniyi said that resident identity card would be issue to those who would be captured during the exercise, to differentiate between legal residents and illegal immigrants. He said that government would be able to accurately determine the overall resources required in formulating and implementing policies, projects and programmes, after the exercise. Akiniyi advised all residents of the state to participate in the registration exercise to enable them gain access to government services.

The Fashola administration is clearly a responsible one that understands “Government has the responsibility to cater for everyone residing in Lagos, regardless of the state or country they came from".

I am not so sure the same can be said about some of the triumphalist commentators on this thread.

It of course would not be long now before this discussion degenerates into a mudfest...the signs are ominous grin
