Ahead of the confirmation of commissioner nominees in Lagos
State, the lawmaker representing Badagry II in the State House Assembly, Hon.
David Setonji, has commended Governor Akinwunmi Ambode for allocating two slots
to the Badagry zone.
In a statement in Lagos, Setonji said the governor’s action
was a clear testimony that he means well for Badagry zone which has suffered
unimaginable neglect in terms in infrastructure and political patronage.
He added that Ambode’s action has shown that he was ready to
give Badagry zone which is a gateway to the country’s western axis a facelift
in term of provision of social amenities and human development. The lawmaker
added that Badagry zone deserves such recognition and attention due to the fact
that it has become a prominently All Progressives Congress (APC) area.
He added: “Badagry area is an APC zone, the party won all
the seats from the House of Assembly to the National Assembly levels to the
zone. This is big credit to the area, it shows that Badagry people are ready to
work with the government at both the state and federal levels to ensure better
governance.
Setonji however, called for more recognition of the Badagry
zone through the appointment of more indigenes of the area into state and
federal boards as well as ambassadorial position.
He said the zone was awash with credible and highly talented
professionals who have excelled in various fields of human endeavour, and are
very qualified to occupy exalted position at the state and federal levels.
Setonji further promised to continue to work relentlessly
with the executive arm to ensure that Badagry zone gets a better deal in terms
of infrastructure and human capital development.
