Lagos State Deputy Governor, Obafemi Hamzat, has announced the state government’s plan to support owners of stores that were vandalised or looted by hoodlums. He made this known in a tweet on Friday.
The tweet also contained a link to a form that the owners of stores are expected to fill.
“If you are a Lagos based business and your store got looted/vandalized this week, please fill this form by @LSETFhttps://t.co/lwPiXvFzTp. Let’s do what we can to support you,” he tweeted.
Earlier, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu said the state had activated the process of healing from the large scale destruction. HE said this on Friday after moving around the state to inspect assets destroyed by the arsonists, taking stock of losses to the Government and private businesses.
“Moving forward from the destruction, we have to continue the process of healing ourselves. We need to stop some of our citizens still using social media to instigate or incite the people. It will not be under my watch that we will lose the city that has the largest economy in the entire black nation. Enough is enough. I have moved around and I saw that our people want peace. On this, we are committed to bringing lasting peace back to the State.”
