Dr. Dania until her new appointment, was the Deputy Chief Resilience Officer (DCRO) of the Agency.

Her elevation to the position of Ag. Chief Resilience Officer of the Agency was consequent upon the appointment of the erstwhile Chief Resilience Officer, Arc. Gbolahan Owodunni Oki as the General Manager, Lagos State Building Control Agency (LASBCA).

A letter signed by the Lagos State Head of Service, Mr. Hakeem Muri- Okunola, noted that before her present appointment, due cognisance was given to her record of impressive performance,...

... adding that her wealth of experience would facilitate the achievement of the mandate of the Lagos State Resilience Office.

“In approving your appointment, due cognisance has been taken of your record of impressive performance. I, therefore, have no doubt that you will bring your wealth of experience ..

.. to bear on the mandate of the Lagos State Resilience Office and that you could continue to justify the confidence reposed in you by Mr. Governor”, Muri-Okunola stated.

Dr. Dania, an experienced medical professional, had also served in the Directorate of Disease Control, Lagos State Ministry of Health, where she worked meritoriously with the Programme Officer in the implementation of Malaria elimination programme of the Lagos State Government.

In June 2018, the Ag. CRO was nominated as the representative of the Ministry of Health at Lagos State Resilience Office, which was created as a partnership between the Lagos State Government and Rockefeller Foundation via its 100 Resilient Cities (100RC) programme.

In August 2019, based on the recommendation of the Leadership of 100 RC, the Lagos State Resilience Office (LASRO) and the Ministry of Economic Planning & Budget (MEPB), she was appointed as the Deputy Chief Resilience Officer for Lagos State.

Dr. Dania, after her appointment as the Deputy Chief Resilience Officer, led the development of Lagos Resilience Strategy (LRS), the first Urban Resilience Strategy in Nigeria, which was publicly released in February 2020.

The appointment as Acting CRO, LASRO is with immediate effect.

@LCCTollRoad

[PANEL RULING]: MD @LCCTollRoad says the Panel's ruling was clear and explicit. The Admiralty Circle Toll Plaza was never shut down. Rather, LCC was only asked to leave the Plaza untouched until the completion of the forensic audit instituted by the honourable Panel.

@LCCTollRoad

MD @LCCTollRoad Toll Plaza ever designated 'a crime scene’ by the Panel, as this would have warranted the total stoppage of vehicular movement at that section of the road, Vehicular movement has continued unhindered on the road since Wednesday 21st October 2020.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Agriculture, Ms. @Abi_Olusanya, has said that a free, two-week, mass anti-rabies vaccination campaign will commence on Tuesday, 16th February 2021, to curb the menace of the disease in the State.
@jidesanwoolu @Abi_Olusanya @lagosagric1

Olusanya explained that the campaign is aimed at promoting awareness on rabies among dogs and cats since the disease is deadly and mostly transmitted to humans, through bites from infected dogs to cause fatalities, if not treated early.
#LASG

The Commissioner disclosed that the need for the campaign arose as a result of increased cases of canine rabies across the State, making it a persistent endemic problem.
