The Executive Chairman of Eti-Osa East Local Council Development Area, Hon. John Campos Ogundare had a meeting with stakeholders in preparation for the Year 2022 budget at the council secretariat on Wednesday, 22nd December, 2021.
The meeting had contributions and inputs from different stakeholders who were present at the meeting.
The stakeholders expressed their happiness with the administration of Hon. John Campos Ogundare in the last six months of assumption of duty, especially in the area of security.
They also added that the chairman's proactive measures in tackling issues of security in the area council were highly commendable, and would serve as templates for other chairmen who would come after him.
The stakeholders however said that they would appreciate more from the administration of the chairman in the areas of road construction, infrastructural development, good healthcare facilities and service delivery through the resuscitation and upgrading of the primary healthcare centres within the local council area.
The Chairman, Hon. John Campos Ogundare, appreciated the stakeholders for their kind gestures and support for his administration in the last six months.
He promised to include the concerns of the stakeholders in the 2022 budget so as to bring about more development to the local council.
He seized the medium to highlight some of the projects his administration has embarked upon in the last six months, and he even promised that some of them would be commissioned soon.
He noted that most of the public facilities across the LCDA which have been put in place to serve the people of the LCDA are being stolen and vandalised. This is largely due to the nonchalant attitude of people towards government properties and the inability of community leaders to keep tabs on them, while reiterating that the government cannot do it all alone.
The chairman therefore urged the traditional leaders and CDA chairmen who were fully represented at the meeting to help the government in safeguarding public properties since they are closer to the people. This act would further encourage the government to do more in the area of developmental projects, he added.
He also sent a note of warning through the community and market leaders to tell their people to desist from selling their wares on the road. Same applied to the transport union leaders who were told to tell their members to stop loading passengers on the road as this often cause unnecessary gridlock. Consequently, when government swing into action to bring sanity to our local council, it should not look like we are wicked.
He wished everyone present a Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year in advance.
