The Permanent Secretary/Auditor-General for Local Governments, Mrs. Adesumbo Abolarin has visited Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas that were vandalised and burnt by hoodlums in the aftermath of the #EndSars protests.
Speaking during one of the visits, Mrs. Adesumbo Abolarin, disclosed that her visit was for on-the-spot assessment of the destruction of Council property across Lagos State as well as to commiserate with the management of affected Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas.
She condemned the act of the hoodlums and arsonists, describing it as the most barbaric and uncivilised conduct anyone can think of, particularly when the State Government and the respective Local Governments are at the forefront of service delivery to the citizenry.
While informing that all the affected Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas are presently grappling with operational difficulties caused by the wanton destruction, the Permanent Secretary urged the Executive, Management and Staff to protect other critical assets while continuing to deliver more services to the people regardless of the temporary setback.
Some of the Local Governments and Local Council Development Areas visited included Lagos Island, Lagos Mainland, Ibeju-Lekki, Ajeromi Ifelodun, Eti-Osa, Lagos Island East, Apapa Iganmu, Egbe-Idimu, Ojodu and Ejigbo.
