The Lagos State Government, through the Ministry of Youth and Social Development led by *Hon. Mobolaji Ogunlende*, has commenced a robust cleanup campaign to combat the prevalent issues of street begging and the despicable exploitation of infants for alms across the state. This strategic initiative underscores the government’s unwavering commitment to fostering safety, dignity, and cleanliness for all Lagosians.

Hon. Mobolaji Ogunlende, Commissioner for Youth and Social Development, emphasized the transformative nature of this campaign. *_”Our aim is to create a safer and more dignified Lagos, a city where every resident feels valued and respected. We are shifting the narrative from hardship to empathy, from exploitation to opportunity, ensuring our communities thrive with hope.”

This effort aligns with the larger initiatives of the Governor Sanwo-Olu-led administration aimed at sanitizing Lagos State. Recent actions have targeted the clearance of roadside/walkway displays of goods and services, demonstrating the government’s commitment to restoring order and cleanliness across the city.

“The Lagos State Government will no longer tolerate behaviors that undermine the safety and well-being of our citizens. We are resolute in our pursuit of a more compassionate, dignified, and thriving Lagos for all,” added Hon. Ogunlende.

This campaign signifies the government’s dedication to fostering a more empathetic and prosperous Lagos, working tirelessly to create an environment where all residents can thrive.
