Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has flagged off 377 projects across all the State wards to solve specific problems at the grassroots level.
The projects will lead to the construction of over 257 roads, 86 buildings, 9 boreholes, 2 jetties and the installation of 23 power projects.
Out of the projects, the Lagos West Senatorial District has the highest number of projects allocated to it with 184 projects.
According to the Lagos State governor, the projects were in response to the requests by various communities to address specific challenges.
He added that execution of the projects would change the narrative about what grassroots development and government’s responsibilities are all about.
He said: “The state-wide 377 ward projects being launched today are state intervention projects in grassroots development.
“The projects are conceived in response to requests by the various communities across the State to address specific challenges.
“These projects are not universal; they are diverse, reflecting the needs of each ward across the state.
“The implementation of the projects will commence immediately after this official flag-off, as contractors have been fully mobilized to move to site.”
