SANWO-OLU LAUNCHES $20 MILLION ‘LAGOS CARES’ PROGRAMME FOR YOUTHS, WOMAN, L-R: Commissioner for Finance, Dr. Rabiu Olowo; Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat; Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu; his Special Adviser on SDGs & Lagos Global, Mrs. Solape Hammond and Commissioner for Economic Planning & Budget, Mr. Sam Egube, during the launch of Lagos Cares (a World Bank supported initiative) and the State’s Human Capital Development Core Working Group, at Lagos House, Alausa, Ikeja, on Wednesday, April 21, 2021. MSMEs,Farmers among Top Beneficiaries of Economic Stimulus Programme Project Funded Through World Bank Facility Lagos State Government has rolled out a $20 million Coronavirus (COVID-19) Action Recovery and Economic Stimulus (Lagos CARES) Programme to support livelihood for poor and vulnerable households and to expand food security services in the State. At the State House, Alausa, on Wednesday, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu launched the social intervention project that is focused on offering safety net to residents whose means of livelihood had been disrupted by the impacts of COVID-19 and also to building resilience of the State. The programme, which will be implemented for 24 months, is being funded through $750 million facility secured from the World Bank by the Federal Government for Nigeria-CARES project. Other states also benefited from the stimulus programme. Lagos CARES will directly support 20,843 households and indirectly support 125,058 individuals within the State. The programme encompasses three key result areas, including increasing cash transfers and livelihood support to poor and vulnerable households; increasing food security and safe functioning of food supply chains for poor households, and facilitating the recovery of Micro and Small Enterprises (MSMEs), while strengthening institutional support for coordination and delivery. Sanwo-Olu said the programme was designed to be inclusive and packaged to specifically impact women and the youth. Its implementation, the Governor said, cuts across relevant ministries, including Sustainable Development Goals and Investment (SDG&I), Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation (WAPA), Finance, Wealth Creation, and Agriculture. He said: “Today marks another milestone in our effort to combat the negative impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our households, livelihood, food security and businesses. The CARES project is an integral part of the national approach, adopted to alleviate the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic, and enhance the wellbeing of our people. “The Lagos CARES Programme will be implemented between 2021 and 2023, and will provide economic relief and recovery support to identified vulnerable persons. During the 24 months, the programme will directly support vulnerable households and indirectly support 125,058 individuals. There will also be interventions in 69 markets, while a minimum of 2,512 MSMEs will be supported.” To effectively implement the programme, Sanwo-Olu set up the State’s CARES Steering Committee (SCSC), co-headed by the Commissioner for Economic Planning and Budget, Sam Egube, and Special Adviser on Sustainable Development Goals and Investment, Mrs. Solape Hammond. Other members of the steering committee comprises cabinet members and policy heads, who will oversee the programme and provide policy guidance. The Governor also inaugurated the State’s CARES Coordinating Unit (SCCU) that will work directly with the delivery platforms of the three result areas for result monitoring and coordination. Sanwo-Olu expressed his confidence in the ability of the members committees, who, he said, had been part of the main drivers of the Government’s agenda for a Greater Lagos. He said: “I would like to remind the committee members not to lose sight of the T.H.E.M.E.S Agenda of the State Government as they work on the three result areas. This administration will continue to collaborate with people of goodwill in the public and private sectors, multilateral and donor partners as we deliver good governance to our people.” Egube said the project would address loss of jobs and threat to food supply chain occasioned by the spread of the pandemic. He said the programme would leverage existing World Bank’s operations anchored on community-based approach and multi-sector interventions. On her part, Mrs. Hammond said the State would be implementing 10 Disbursement-Linked Indicators (DLIs) out of 11 across three results areas for impact. The programme, she said, will benefit 4,652 farmers towards driving up agricultural inputs and services, adding that 5,460 farmers would be engaged in agricultural assets for production and mitigation of food loss and waste. The Special Adviser said there would be provision of well-targeted conditional grants to co-finance loans for eligible 1,132 MSMEs 1 Like

This is another ogbonge news from Western report center BADAGRY MEGAPORT.... Badagry MegaPort and Free Zone Project, Lagos The Badagry MegaPort and Free Zone project, proposed to be constructed at Badagry, Lagos State, Nigeria, will be Africa's biggest and most advanced sea port when it starts operations in 2018. Project Type Integrated port and industrial free-zone Location Badagry, Lagos State, Nigeria Start of Construction Early 2016 Start of Operations 2018 Expand The Badagry MegaPort and Free Zone is expected to start operations in 2018. The Badagry MegaPort and Free Zone project, proposed to be constructed at Badagry, Lagos State, Nigeria, will be Africa’s biggest and most advanced sea port when it starts operations in 2018. The new port is expected to have an annual throughput capacity of 1.8 million TEU. The project is being developed through a public-private partnership (PPP) overseen by the federal government, federal Ministry of Transport, federal Ministry of Trade and Investment and Lagos state government. It is also being overseen by a private consortium of APM Terminals, Orlean Invest, Oando, Terminal Investment Limited (TIL) and Macquarie. The proposal for the project was announced in 2012. Feasibility studies have been completed and construction works are scheduled to start in early 2016. The project will be implemented in four phases, with the overall project cost estimated to range between $2bn and $3bn. Badagry port location and purpose "The new port is expected to have an annual throughput capacity of 1.8 million TEU." The proposed site is located 55km west of Apapa and the port of Lagos, along the 55km long Lagos-Badagry Expressway, that is being upgraded from a four-lane to a ten-lane expressway. The new port will primarily ease pressure on the existing port of Lagos, which handles approximately 85% of the country’s non-oil throughput. It will further alleviate the country’s ports, which are on the verge of exceeding their cargo handling capacities, and address the country’s annual container traffic, which is expected to grow to ten million TEU by 2030 3 Likes

jrjfjfj: A lot my bro. We are being held back by the unwieldy and retrogressive structure of Nigeria which tries to force people of different talent, abiillity, focus and mindset to operate at the same level. Some of us know why we want more autonomy handed to States and regions so they escape the retrogressive stranglehold of the FG that tends to keep some States and region backwards to accommodate those who want all of us underdeveloped till they catch up. Below is one example of many endowments of the SW we are yet to tap into appreciably. It is a shame how "one Nigeria" has frustrated the progress the Yorubas can make. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214509516300201 Abstract https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RUV3r_rhSgQ 2 Likes |
