Speaking at the maiden edition of the Lagos Traffic Radio Lecture Series, themed: “Migrating Workforce: The Challenges of Mass Transportation’’, he urged people to work with the government to have a traffic-free state, adding that this would attract investors.
"This administration is determined to make Lagos State and investor’s delight, a place where every investor gets its money’s worth.
For this to become a reality, the traffic situation must be well managed, a task which the traffic radio is wholly committed to fulfilling.
For us to accomplish the free flow of traffic in a megalopolis state like Lagos, we all have significant roles to play; we must obey traffic regulations as well as comply with traffic rules.
LASTMA officials are our brothers and sisters; we must cooperate with them in order to keep Lagos traffic moving,’’ he said.
