He told the clerics that they would assist his administration in appealing to Lagosians to cooperate with his policies, especially on refuse disposal and traffic issues, particularly driving against traffic.

The governor promised that waste disposal bags will be distributed free of charge to Churches and Mosque. According to him, he would consult and engage religious leaders in propagating policies and programmes because congregation believes their leaders and cleric.
