The Ministry of Transportation made this known at weekend while parading four suspected hoodlums by the name; Tunji Oyedeji, Allison Ozin, Taiwo Olubodun and Awotunde Ahmed, while carrying out their illegal activities in Amuwo-Odofin area of the State. Recall that the Transport Operations and Compliance Unit of the Ministry in February apprehended a group of miscreants in Igando axis, while extorting a tipper driver on his way to offload sand. Condemning their actions, the Commissioner for Transportation, Dr Frederic Oladeinde stated that the continuous arrest of these miscreants demonstrates the State Government’s resolve to ensure an enabling environment devoid of miscreants’ activities, saying, the Ministry will intensify its sting operations across the State to tame these urchins whose actions hinder economic development. The Transport Commissioner noted that the suspects arrested have been handed over to the Lagos State TASKFORCE for investigation and prosecution, warning others to desist from these illegal activities or be made to face the full wrath of the law in line with the Lagos State Transport Sector Reform Law 2018.

TINUBU @71: WHY PRESIDENT-ELECT IS GOD’S GIFT TO NIGERIA – OBASA ®™√ INN Nigeria © img 20230330 wa00028587412206409722933 Nigeria's President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is one of God's gifts to Nigeria, the most populous black nation on earth, Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa has said. Dr Obasa said this in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Eromosele Ebhomele, congratulating Tinubu who clocked 71 on Wednesday, March 29, 2023. The Speaker said Tinubu, a puzzle too hard to crack', equates with great men around the world whose stories show great passion and undying love for their countries and citizens. According to him, the recent presidential election won by Asiwaju Tinubu is icing on the cake for the President-elect, who has never shied away from being of service to God and humanity. The Speaker recalled the sacrifice Tinubu made to take Nigeria back from the military and entrench democracy in the country, noting how difficult it is to find individuals with such a level of patriotism. "For a man, whose thought at all times is about salvaging the country from economic and social bondage, victory at the recent polls came at the right time. "There is no way Nigeria's political story can be written without Asiwaju featuring prominently as a result of the positive roles he played before the current democratic dispensation and up till this moment. "We believe that Almighty Allah has a reason for giving him to us in Nigeria, especially at this time of the nation's journey. We do not doubt his capacity to deliver. He has done it before. "With a birthday that comes exactly two months to his oath-taking as President of Nigeria, it is not out of place to say Asiwaju is a blessing to us, one sent to put things right and lay the foundation upon which modern Nigeria would be built. "On behalf of my family, members, staff and management of the Lagos State House of Assembly, I congratulate our dear Asiwaju on his 71st birthday and pray that Allah continues to favour him with vitality, good health and wisdom to navigate our country out of the woods, amin," Obasa prayed.

She explained that projects like the Lekki Deep Sea Port in Ibeju Lekki; Lagos Rice Mill in Imota, here in Ikorodu; 18.75km Eleko-Epe six-lane rigid pavement expressway; the first phase of the 13 kilometres Lagos Blue Light Rail and others are all meant to enhance the State economy business scale.

Dr Adams eliminated that the challenges confronting the MSMEs varied and include access to low-interest loans, inadequate infrastructure, subsistence and manual production, mindset and lack of innovative ideas. He continued, "Relevant institutions must create access to low-interest funds for entrepreneurs to access while there is a need for MSMEs to scale up their production to meet local and export needs". "I also want to advise the Government to create a three-year pre-retirement entrepreneurship/investment window to transform public servants into entrepreneurs", he stated.

TINUBU AT 71: ASIWAJU IS ALLAH’S CHOSEN, HE IS A SPECIAL BEING – SHEIKH YAHYA ASHAOLA ®™√ INN Nigeria © 78657hjkoooiio2544337968922659084 Spiritual Leader, His Eminence, Sheikh Yahya Ashaola (As-Samadaani), Chief Imam of Oriwu Central Mosque of Ikorodu has referred to Nigeria's President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a special being chosen by Allah to lead the current generation. In a sermon given to Muslim faithfuls on Wednesday, 29th of March 2023, marking the 71st birthday of Bola Tinubu, the chief Imam exhorted Nigerians to pray for the President-Elect, for Allah to bestow on him the ample disposition to oversee the nation. The liturgy was delivered after a special prayer and Thanksgiving session were held in the mosque dedicating Tinubu's birthday. Sheikh Ashaola, in his words, "Tinubu is the epitome of Intellectual capacity, a human resource developer and an economic stimulant, equipped for this time to rescue the shattered dreams of Nigerians". Urging the Muslim communities to put him (Tinubu) in their devotions at all times, the chief Imam said he can see the special work of Allah in the life of the incoming president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Underscoring another reason for brethren to beseech for Tinubu, Sheikh Ashaola said winning the 2023 presidential election has hoisted Bola Tinubu into a stature that even some well-respected political figures didn't attain. He explained, "The Late Obafemi Awolowo was considered the best President we never had. He was the head of the Yorubas, but he never permeated the North and East". "Today, Asiwaju has accomplished that!". "He's the most successful politician in Nigeria as we speak". "Asiwaju also suffered for the Democracy we enjoy today, he was tortured and humiliated, but his sense of focus and divine direction kept him moving to where he is now" Sheikh Ashaola added Crediting Tinubu's intellectual strength, Sheikh Ashaola asserted that the President-Elect is known to assemble the best brains to achieve sufficient results, narrating that he exemplified the same act during his first 6 months in office as Governor of Lagos State back in 1999. Subsequently, lecturing attendees, Imam Ojifinni Abdul-Ganiu, the Mufasir of Ramadan 1444/23 in Ikorodu, illustrated that it takes an extraordinary leader to discard his birthday celebration to engage more in service to humanity. Imam Ojifinni stated that the Yoruba population should emulate Bola Tinubu's life ethics, and ensure to give his incoming administration the peace it deserves. "No Yoruba group or body should be brainwashed or influenced to cause havoc on Asiwaju's presidential tenure, because the truth is, his effective performance at Aso Rock will open more doors to Yoruba leaders in the future, given them opportunities to also become president". "We must be careful not to allow people to use us to generate chaos and anarchy towards Asiwaju's tenure, it is the only way we can show him our profound support" Imam Ojifinni asserted On the backdrop of his 71st birthday, President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu directed that special prayers and thanksgiving service be held on March 29, 2023, instead of his annual birthday colloquium. The special prayers were also held in Lagos and other parts of the country, simultaneously.
