Happy New Year, Lagosians.
As we step into 2025, I celebrate the resilience, innovation, and unity that defined our journey through 2024. Together, we navigated challenges, achieved historic milestones, and set new benchmarks for excellence in governance, infrastructure, and social development.
In 2024, Lagos rose to new heights—launching transformative projects like the Red Line Rail, expanding our Blue Line operations, and delivering groundbreaking initiatives in health, education, and youth empowerment. We became a beacon for progress and an example of what’s possible when leadership and people align.
This year, our vision remains clear: to build a Greater Lagos that works for all. We will focus on sustainable infrastructure, drive economic growth, and deepen community impact through innovative programs. The future of Lagos is bold, inclusive, and limitless.
Lagos is not just a city; it is an energy, a movement, and a promise. In 2025, we will continue to lead, inspire, and deliver on the trust you have placed in us.
Together, we will write the next great chapter of our story.
Happy New Year.
