Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governorship
candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos state, has unveiled
his development agenda for the state.
Tagged “Project THEME”, he said
the agenda focused on transportation, health and the environment, education and
technology, entertainment and tourism, among other issues.
Speaking to an audience at a
private centre in Ikeja, Sanwo-Olu said project THEME was conceived after wide
consultations with stakeholders on the challenges and the future of the state.
“We didn’t just prepare the THEME
documents in our bedrooms or in one hotel or inside a board room. The documents
came from our numerous engagements with the people of Lagos State, telling us
what their needs are and the immediate intervention they require on any
challenge,” Sanwo-Olu said.
“We promised to implement a more
effective public transport system, reactivate the rail system, extend water
transport services, expand and improve network of roads.”
On health and environment,
Sanwo-Olu promised to ensure the presence of a minimum of three doctors, three
nurses and five community health workers in all 354 primary health centres
(PHCs) by 2021 and provide ten new PHCs for riverine and other areas.
He said his government would
optimize waste management, improve drainage and disposal of wastewater across
the metropolis.
He added that the administration
would create a conducive business environment to attract investments and
industries, support the growth of the local economy, empower the workforce
using local talent to drive job and wealth creation, encourage youth
development and provide support for key economic sectors like agriculture,
housing and security.
