Tinubu To Extend Lagos Dev’t Model Across Nigeria, Says SGF Akume

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Senator George Akume, has assured Nigerians of the determination of President Bola Tinubu to replicate the developmental strides achieved during his tenure as the governor of Lagos State across the country in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda.

SGF gave the assurance when a powerful delegation from the Amalgamated Commercial Motorcycle, Tricycle, Repairer and Riders Association of Nigeria (ACOMORAN) led by its National President, Prince Samsudeen Adebayo Apelogun, paid him a visit in Abuja.

In a statement by the director of information in the office of SGF, Segun Imohiosen, Akume said that President Tinubu was desirous to replicate the giant strides achieved in the post-1999 Lagos State at the national level in transforming all the key sectors of the economy, and should be given another chance to complete the good work he has started.

“We didn’t have any problem whatsoever for the President to repeat and continue to do what he knows best to do for this country.

“That was why President Buhari made a comment when he emerged the presidential candidate of our party where he said, “Lagos pre-1999 and Lagos post-1999 will never be the same again”. So what Governor Tinubu did in Lagos was going to replicate at a national level. Basically this is what is going on in all fields: economy, education, transportation, health, Information Technology, power and so on,” the s
SGF stated.

Sen. Akume thanked the organisation for its unalloyed support to President Tinubu and assured them of his support to the advancement of the sector.

Speaking earlier, the National President of ACOMORAN, Prince Samsudeen Adebayo Apelogun, commended the Federal Government’s unwavering commitment in boosting the economy, strengthening security and sustainable development in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda. Having assured President Tinubu of its overwhelming support, he sought the Federal Government’s interventions in the transportation sector to create more jobs and lasting solution to challenges affecting the sector.
