He observed that Local governments are the closest level of government to the citizens and play a vital role in providing essential services and infrastructure to communities. Therefore, projects undertaken by the councils must be carried out in accordance with approved specifications and with the best interests of the people in mind.

Hon. Sanni emphasized that the oversight exercise is not intended to witch-hunt any council administration but rather to promote good governance, strengthen institutional accountability, and encourage efficient utilization of public resources.

The committee reiterates its dedication to endorsing policies and programs aimed at enhancing grassroots development, fortifying local governance, and improving the quality of life for residents throughout Lagos.

In pursuit of these objectives, the committee intends to conduct inspections of various projects, including road construction and rehabilitation, drainage infrastructure, healthcare facilities, educational projects, markets, community development initiatives, and other significant interventions carried out by the councils.

The inspection tour is expected to cover all 57 Local Government Areas and Local Council Development Areas in the State.
