Fashola Encourages Low-Key Handover Ceremonies
The Governor of Lagos State, Babatunde Raji Fashola has
urged the incoming government on State and National levels to embrace low-key
handover ceremonies saying the focus of the day should be what the incoming
government plans to do and not the usual funfair. He also says it’s time for us
to emulate how it is been done in other parts of the world. Hear him;
“I think we should do what normal countries do as regards
inauguration. There should not be too much fanfare about this. We should
understand that the tenure of the current administration will end on the
midnight of May 28. Continue...
“A new President and new government are in office subject to
the constitutional requirement of Section 140 of the Constitution to declare
their assets and take their oath of office. So, essentially, what people see
during the day is ceremonial.
“The law has taken its course at midnight. So, that is the
most important thing. So, I hope at various state levels and national level, we
will hear indicative directions about which way we are going (on inauguration
day).
