Lagos governor, Ambode promises steady power supply

Lagos State Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode has said that his administration would prioritise attention to the Power, Environment and Transportation sectors in the next two years to drive all round development of the state

He said, ‘The last two years, what we have done is just to create a foundation of a vision that drives Lagos to the next 50 years. There is nothing that we can do in the next two years that is ever going to be enough.’

Speaking on power sector, Ambode said efforts were ongoing to ensure stable power supply for all industries in the state adding that the intention was to create embedded power in clusters in the city.

However, he noted that despite the successes recorded, the State was also willing to learn from other States, just as it has also extended same to other sister States.

‘There are also things that we are looking at from other States. We do not know everything,’ Ambode said.

‘There are other States that are doing some things better than us. So, we must be submissive enough to learn from them and the same thing with other States from us.

‘And that is whole lesson about leadership, leadership is about learning, it is about listening and which is what we do very well in Lagos,’ he said.
