THE recently inaugurated Executives of the Community Development Committee (CDC) in the Alimosho Local Government Area recently held their first general meeting at the Alimosho Local Government Secretariat, Akowonjo.
Information reaching Alimoshotoday states that the meeting was used to welcome newly elected CDA principal officers and to discuss important matters that will bring about the progress of the CDC and the entire community.
The newly inaugurated Chairman, Venerable Adetunji Adewuyi, used the medium to urge the members to hold regular meetings in their CDAs, ensure that they pay their Radio and Television levies to the Local Government, as well as, be conscious of securing their immediate environment against all forms of insecurities.
According to him, prompt payment of Radio and Television levies increases the Government's Internally Generated Revenue, which will consequently make it easy for the Government to execute projects.
He added that each CDA should make the awareness of the Radio and Television levy very important by emphasising it at their meeting.
Meanwhile, Mr Atanda Adeniyi from the Ministry of Local Government, who visited, spoke of the need for an effective collaboration between the Lagos State Government and the CDAs on ensuring sustainable energy for all.
According to him, the use of a generator set, which pollutes the environment and consequently causes respiratory problems, needs to be examined.
