He said: “I pledge my loyalty to those who have stake in this ministry, including members of staff. My position here, as the commissioner, is just by providence. By implication, there is nothing I can do without you. Don’t see me as a ruler, but as a co-worker who is here to coordinate activities.
“Myplea is that let us design our activities to align with the T.H.E.M.E.S agenda of the Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu-led administration; the onus is on you to make this agenda translate into programmes to impact the lives of Lagosians.”
