The Lagos State Government published an 11-day schedule for the inauguration of Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and his deputy, Obafemi Hamzat, on Friday. The festival will take place from May 21 through June 4.
The program, which would commemorate the conclusion of their first term and the start of their second term, was announced during a press conference in Alausa, Ikeja, by the Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Gbenga Omotosho.
While the inauguration will take place on May 29, post-inauguration Jummat and church services would take place on June 2 and 4, respectively.
A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Gboyega Akosile, noted that the programmes would be held in different parts of the state, particularly the five divisions of Lagos – Ikorodu, Badagry, Ikeja, Lagos Island and Epe.
The programmes include youth carnival and robotic competition for people with disabilities, book launch and photo exhibition, Children’s Day activities, cultural display and an inauguration dinner.
Omotosho also disclosed that projects commissioning would take place in eight local government areas between May 24 and May 26. “The administration in line with its campaign promise ensured that all abandoned/ongoing projects too numerous to mention were completed,” Omotosho was quoted as saying.
