Uthman, who addressed journalists yesterday, in Ikeja, also pledged to curb building collapse incidents in the state.

He lamented the filth and dirt in the state, promising to create mass jobs for the youths by engaging them in cleaning Lagos.

Uthman said, “If you move around Lagos, you will be embarrassed by the filth and heaps of rubbish you see in most parts of the state, and this is not a good image for the mega city the state should enjoy.

“If my party wins the 2023 governorship election in Lagos, I will strengthen the Lagos Waste Management Authority, LAWMA, by employing more youths, and the agency’s mandate will be strengthened, that way jobs are created and the city is kept clean,” the politician vowed.

He said his primary responsibility would be to manage traffic by retraining the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) officials.

Uthman, “With the Okada ban, which I support, by the way, I will make water transportation effective. In those good old days, you would take a ferry from Mile 2 and Festac town take a ferry to CMS, but today, they have sold the jetties.

“With the current Okada ban, the riders that would be made jobless should be engaged in one empowerment or the other.”

“Also on the Lekki toll gate exploitation, I will address that if I emerge. We know that Lagosians living on that axis are going through hard times as they have to pay each time they go in and out. I will check that.

“I will make sure Lagos is a mega city in all respects if my party wins the election in Lagos,” he maintained.
