Funso Doherty, a chartered accountant, has asked the Lagos state government to stay further action on its partnership with Oando PLC on electric mass transit buses.
Funso Doherty, the governorship candidate of the Action Democratic Congress (ADC) in Lagos State, has stated that one of his visions if elected as the state governor is to ensure the local government councils become more functional than what is currently obtainable in the state. While speaking at the state college governorship debate on Wednesday, Doherty who described local government councils as the closest tier of government to the people, vowed that his administration would ensure proper resources allocation to the councils to ensure efficient performance of their functions.
As campaigns for the 2023 general elections gather momentum, ruling parties in various states are deploying strange and unacceptable tactics to ensure opposition is weakened in their states.
The Lagos State governorship candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the Peoples Democratic Party, Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran, and Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour of the Labour Party have shunned the National Human Rights Commission town hall meeting organised for the candidates ahead of the March 11 governorship election.
Doherty explained that with this, businesses can expand, employing more individuals, and reducing the unemployment rate in the state. | Pulse Nigeria
