The newly inaugurated governor of Lagos State, Mr. Raji Fashola, arrived the state Secretariat, Alausa today in grand style. The governor who arrived at about 10:10 a.m., was received by jubilant workers at the secretariat. The workers welcomed the governor, singing, (Kabo Se da da lode, Omo Fashola),meaning ‘You are cordially welcome, son of Fashola’. The permanent secretaries were later introduced to the governor by the Head of Service, Alhaji Yakubu Balogun.

The governor in his address to the workers thanked then for their support and promised them a good welfare package which he said will be unfolded later.

“In the course of time, we’ll be unfolding a better welfare,” Fashola said.

The governor said he will not let Lagosians down because of the confidence they repose in him.

“There is a lot of work to be done. The expectation is higher than it was in 1999. A lot of Lagosians now have a new hope on what we can do. I believe Lagos can be as prosperous as Dubai,” he said.

Presenting the Deputing governor, Princess, Sarah Adebisi Sosan, the governor said: “She represents a balance of fatherly and motherly touches you need. I have found her to be patient.”

A prayer session was later held for the governor and his deputy after which both went into a meeting with permanent secretaries.

Meanwhile, Fashola has promised to turn around the economic fortunes of the state.

Fashola, during his acceptance speech at the Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, yesterday, said he would make Lagos a pro-business city-state.

He added that he would build and consolidate on the achievements of his predecessor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

The governor also said that jobs will be created for the large number of unemployed youths in the state, adding that the issue of corruption will be tackled by his administration.

The new governor said he will cooperate with the police to ensure the security of lives and properties.

The former governor, Bola Tinubu in his hand over speech, said the monumental achievements of his administration have proved critics wrong.

Tinubu stated that when he mounted the saddle of leadership eight years ago, Lagos was bedevilled with a backlog of seven years of unaudited account while the monthly internally generated revenue was N600 million while N1.2 billion was spent on salaries.

Tinubu revealed that he put the best team together and today, the monthly internally generated revenue is N7 billion.

He urged the new governor to recover all withheld funds by which he estimated to be N34.5 billion.
