The market is there; it is mature, waiting, willing, and capable. All we need to do is to be able to allocate resources critically. “The Federal Government and Lagos State Government are like Siamese twins. We cannot but continue to relate together, and we should make the best use of the relationship going forward. “We need to collaborate on a win-win situation. We are both partners with the same vision and intentions.

The two governments (federal and state) will work collaboratively. We will give all the necessary support and cooperation that are required for you to do well and for your ministry to succeed.”Speaking earlier, Arc.

I am happy that Lagos State is the first to domesticate the National Building Code. “As a ministry, we would like for us to find common ways to resolve perennial problems that have been of concern in the relationship between the Federal Government and the Lagos State Government. “I am confident that addressing these matters collaboratively will further strengthen the relationship between our two tiers of government, enhance urban development, and improve the lives of Lagosians.
