Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has appealed to youths in Lagos to support his developmental plans.
Mr Sanwo-Olu made the appeal in his New Year Message to youths in Badagry at the end of activities to mark the Greater Lagos Fiesta in the town.
The three-day fiesta recorded a massive turnout of youths from the old Badagry Division.
The event attracted upcoming artistes and some old musicians like Salawa Abeni, Safejo Amama, Alhaji Sule Akanni, Apekeola gospel song, Johnny Suru from the Republic of Benin, Pepit Art and Saint Banky.
Mr Sanwo-Olu urged the residents of Badagry to cooperate with his administration by supporting his developmental plans. He assured the people of Badagry that he would keep to his campaign promises.
The governor urged the youth to calm down and trust in his governance, adding that he would touch their respective communities. He appealed to the youth to be law-abiding and avoid anything that could tarnish their image or damage their future.
The governor commended the people for turning up in large numbers for the three-day fiesta.
Badagry council chair Olusegun Onilude said the fiesta had brought old and young together to enjoy themselves.
