The Convener, The Alternative, Otunba Segun Sowunmi has congratulated the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwoolu on his 60th birthday.
Sowunmi, a former Governorship hopeful under the banner of People’s Democratic Party, (PDP) in a congratulatory message obtained by Our Correspondent said the achievements of Governor Babajide Sanwoolu in the last Six years are undeniable, while urging him to focus more on the environmental issues in the State.
His words, “Your achievements are undeniable in the last Six years, and as you begin the last lap towards the completion of your 2nd term in office, I encourage you to take off the gloves and fix the environmental issues.
He urged him to allow the works of Tokunbo Wahab, the Lagos State commissioner for Environment, to be front and centre and top priority.
“We know our history of Lagos and we thank God for the development so far, the time is now to force compliance with the master plan in such a way that whoever comes after you will not need to apologise for trying to build a modern city.
“What must be pulled down should be pulled down, what must be provided for the greater good of the people must be provided for the good of the people.
Sowunmi said “Asiwaju started the vision, Fashola deepened the framework, Ambode drove it deeper into places that the poor live in, it is now on your shoulders to sanitise the built-up areas.
“Lagos must not be a mega slum. It is not a no man’s land! It is a land for all persons who wish to live and strive in the biggest economic city-state in Africa.
Sparkle like a Diamond. Many happy returns.
Otunba Segun Showunmi.
