Lagos Government Lifts Ban On Construction Of New Fuel Stations From 21/1/2019 by davodyguy: 12:44pm On Jan 22, 2019

The Lagos State government, through its Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, has announced the lifting of ban on the construction of new fuel stations anywhere in the state.

The Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Prince Rotimi Ogunleye, said at a briefing yesterday that the state governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, had approved the lifting of the embargo on the grant of planning permit for the construction of petrol filling stations.

The state government had placed the ban on April 26, 2017, which subsequently necessitated all other relevant ministries, departments and agencies of government to place embargo on the approval of gas plants due to reoccurring fire outbreaks as a result of non-compliance with standard safety measures.

Ogunleye disclosed that the governor has also approved the implementation of a reviewed guideline detailing the requirements to be met by operators seeking planning permits for petrol stations and gas plants in the state.

“By this approval, the state government seeks to ensure safe and orderly citing, operation and management of filling stations and gas plants for the overall safety of Lagosians. The embargo had been done to check the proliferation of petrol stations and gas plants and its consequences on safety of lives and property,” the Commissioner said.

He said the state government was also concerned about improving the aesthetic value and efficiency of operation in the planning, building control and urban regeneration of the state.

“With the reviewed guidelines, investors intending to embark on developments of this nature and existing operators are directed to strictly comply with the provisions of the reviewed templates.

“Investors are enjoined to apply for planning information from the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development before embarking on any development in order to have first-hand information about the kind of development that can be done in a specific area of the state,” he said.

Buhari is the new Father Christmas in town!
First, he gave Guinea Bissau $500,000 last week, and he has now approved a grant of 1 billion dollar for Sudan to enable them fight famine.
This is a country that can't pay 30k naira minimum wage. A country that has been designated as the poverty capital of the world fighting poverty in another land.
A country that has been borrowing and even trying to sell of its assets to finance a budget is giving to another country.
A country that doesn't suffer famine, but its citizens are very hungry.
This grant to a great extent revalidates the Jubrin saga!
BUHARILOOTER must be voted out at all cost!if PDP are thieves then APC are armed Robbers, if PDP are criminals then APC are terrorists, if PDP are corrupt then APC are lucifers... *
If Nigerians are not hypocrites, why are we supporting Baba to neclect ASUU, even if ASUU have faults yets we are the end-victims. What has change since 2015 on *Education, Health, Social welfare, Transportaion & local security?.*
-Let's learn to say the truth especially on issues that affect our *lives, governance and collective affairs.* Nobody can brainwash me into believing things that all of us know were political lies aimed at continuous domination of the people.
-Buhari is human, can make mistakes. He is sorrounded by both good and bad, selfless and selfish, transparent and corrupt people, why then are we acting as if he is God? when*Insecurity, systematic corruption, poor condition and selective prosecution* are like Jonathan Era.
Say, think and do what you feel is right, but *because many will never forgive him for his inability to truly protect the people.* Many people have paid & are still paying Millions of Naira as Ransom to Kidnappers, *will Buhari compensate them?,* since he cannot provide adequate security?.
-We voted him because we thought he is better than Jonathan, but he allowed the *Tinubus, Osinbajos, Fasholas* and others to be control him Indirectly. He is no more the *"Action GMB"*
SAI ATIKUOBI FOR BETTER LIFE
SAI ATIKUOBI FOR BETTER NIGERIA
