Lagos State Ministry of Home Affairs has disclosed that it has registered a total of 400 money lenders across the State in the last two years, just as it confirmed the receipt of 74 applications for naturalisation on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Home Affairs.
#LASG
The State Commissioner for Home Affairs, Prince Anofiu Elegushi, disclosed this at the ongoing Y2021 Ministerial Press Briefing to commemorate the second year in office of Governor @jidesanwoolu at the Bagauda Kaltho Press Centre, Alausa, Ikeja on Sunday.
@drobafemihamzat #LASG
He added that out of the 74 applications for naturalisation received, 35 have been screened and recommended to the Federal Ministry of Interior for approval.

He explained that the Ministry is also in talks with foreign business owners, who intend to acquire the Nigeria citizenship via naturalisation and/or special immigrant status,
saying that with the ongoing engagement, Nigeria, especially Lagos State, stands to benefit foreign Direct Investment while the immigrant business owners also benefit by growing their businesses in one of the biggest markets in the world.
#LASG #ForAGreaterLagos
This partnership, according to him, has greatly assisted small scale business owners in Lagos to keep their petty businesses afloat without having to contend with high interest rates of the big banks.
#LASG #ForAGreaterLagos
On the registered 400 money lenders in the State, the Commissioner stated that the Ministry of Home Affairs is in partnership with the Moneylenders sector in a way that the organisations are mandated to register with the Ministry for the coordination of their activities.
#LASG
He informed that the Ministry is in the process of imputing data of every worship centre located in the State on a centralised database to allow LASG have reliable data of churches, mosques and their locations with a view to carrying them along in State Government policies.
#LASG
The Commissioner also reported on the state of religious harmony and peaceful coexistence of people belonging to the two major religions in the State.
#LASG #ForAGreaterLagos
Elegushi added that the feat was achieved through regular, vigorous and consistent engagements and discussions with religious leaders in the State under the umbrella of the Nigeria Inter-Religious Council (NIREC).
#LASG #ForAGreaterLagos
While giving the accounts of stewardship of both the Muslim and Christian Pilgrims Welfare Boards, the Commissioner disclosed that the Ministry went the extra length to partner with the Ministry of Health in ensuring a seamless vaccination exercise for all intending Pilgrims.
On the readiness for Y2021 Pilgrimage exercise by intending Christian pilgrims, Elegushi informed that the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry led a six-man delegation to Jordan, ahead of the proposed May 2021 Pilgrimage, to ascertain the preparedness of pilgrimage handlers
#LASG
The Commissioner pointed out that more improvements on the activities of the Ministry will be implemented, while deploying new methods of delivering excellent service to residents of the State in the areas of its ministerial mandates.
