Today has been a very busy day for Mr Governor and the state executive council as we work towards helping our residents live through the lockdown as we work to stop the spread of #COVID19. Here are some announcements made by @jidesanwoolu today;
on #LagosFoodRelief, @Jidesanwoolu announced the continuation of the distribution of relief items to 250,000 vulnerable residents and in addition to this, 100,000 youths will be provided one meal per day across LCDAs via our food kitchens.
On further relief, @Jidesanwoolu announced a conditional cash transfer to 250,000 people while repayment on state facilitated loans to SMEs & MSMEs through LSETF will have a moratorium of 3 months to help ease the effect of the lockdown for businesses and their employees

Dear Lagosians, yesterday H.E Pres. @MBuhari announced a 2 weeks extension of the lockdown. This was a tough decision but like we have seen in countries that couldn't stop the spread of #COVID19, the effects have been catastrophic. My
biggest focus now is security and welfare.
On security, there have been reports of pockets of insecurity across different areas and intelligence has shown a combination of exploitation by criminal elements. The Police have been responsive but in the last 24 hours we have worked to increase surveillance and response time.
On welfare, the second half of the first phase of our reformed #LagosFoodRelief distribution which is targeted at the vulnerable is on course. The federal government's conditional cash transfer has also begun to help reduce the burden and we are working on doing more.
