The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, has congratulated workers in Lagos State and across Nigeria on the occasion of the Workers’ Day, describing them as the real drivers of the economic success of the state.
In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Dave Agboola, Obasa lauded the resilience, dedication and sacrifices of the workers who continue to remain the bedrock of the economy and the embodiment of hard work and productivity. He said the strides Lagos has recorded over the years would not have been possible without the unwavering commitment of its workforce.
The Speaker also praised President Bola Tinubu for his recent endeavours to give Nigerian workers a new lease of life through salary increases and other welfare-driven policies. The measures were timely interventions that demonstrated the President’s commitment to improving the living standards of the nation’s workers, he said.
“On this Labour Day, I salute the men and women whose work is the backbone of our society. “Your sacrifices and contributions are invaluable, they inspire us to keep building a Lagos that is driven by fairness, innovation and opportunity for all,” the Speaker said.
Obasa further assured the workers that the Lagos State House of Assembly is committed to enacting laws and policies that protect their rights, enhance their welfare and create an environment that fosters sustainable growth. He urged them to stay strong and hopeful, promising that their efforts would continue to shape a better future for Lagos State and Nigeria as a whole.
