Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode on Saturday said his administration is passionate about the future of children in the state just as he charged parents to guide their children to grow up and become useful to themselves and the society at large.
Governor Ambode, who spoke at the Lagos House in Ikeja during the 2015 Children’s End Of The Year Party, said the welfare of every child in the state is of paramount importance to him, assuring that he would do everything possible to protect the interest of the young ones.
He said, “We are passionate about what happens to our children in Lagos. Children are our tomorrow and I will like to tell you that we will make the next year’s edition of the children’s party to be bigger and better than this. These children are the future of Lagos”.
He assured that his administration would build more recreation centres and sporting facilities across the State to boost family bonding and aide the discovery of young talents.
“We also intend to make sure that we provide sporting facilities and recreation centres around the nook and crannies of Lagos because our children are the future of tomorrow and we need to start taking care of them from now and nurture them to grow and become what we want them to be, which is great leaders”, he said.
