“In which road and traffic management operations will be on till 11 pm on a daily basis,” he said.

Sanwo-Olu noted that the Lagos State Public Works Corporation will immediately commence the identification and repairs of all potholes and bad roads within the state.

He also said provisions of the order shall extend to all enforcement agencies in the state in maintaining law and order for the collective good of the citizens.

“I expect the fullest level of compliance with this order and will look to the various heads of ministries, departments and agencies to give full force and effect to the orders therein contained and to take responsibility for any failure,” he said.

Meanwhile, Sanwo-olu has appointed Mrs Folasade Jaji as the Secretary to the State Government.
