Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos State has urged Lagosians to ensure the sustenance of many innovative projects that his administration created.
He explained that it could be done if the residents vote in the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Akinwunmi Ambode, in the general elections.
Fashola spoke during the Lagos Countdown, which was organised to usher in the New Year.
The governor, who observed that the speech would be his last at the Lagos Countdown as the state governor, commended the corporate organisations that partnered with the government to make the countdown a success.
The countdown was organised by the Lagos State Signage and Advertisement Agency.
Fashola, said, “When we started this countdown idea, it was meant to be a Lagos State Government project, but the partners came in to support us and made many things to happen.
“We commend LASAA and all the sponsors of the countdown for a hitch-free crossover event and for making the 2014 Lagos Countdown a success. The standard of this edition is very high and has been of international standard. It can compare with any other being held in developed countries.
“So, Lagosians should support Akinwunmi Ambode to continue the giant strides that have been initiated in Lagos including the countdown.
“I want to assure Lagosians that Ambode can be trusted to continue this project. He was the Accountant General at the debut of this event, he has the experience.”
Those that performed at the event included Sir Victor Owaifo, Sir Shina Peters, Daddy Showkey, 2face, Banky W, Omawunmi, Olamide, Phyno and Reminisce.
The event was also graced by captains of industry such as Aliko Dangote, Femi Otedola and the Nigerian Breweries boss, Kufre Ekanem, among others. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
