The Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) formally acknowledges, with deep gratitude and profound appreciation, the extensive collation of commendations received in respect of the Authority’s recent activities and overall performance. We are sincerely appreciative of the time, discernment and goodwill invested by stakeholders and members of the public in articulating these thoughtful submissions.
The feedback received has been overwhelmingly constructive and affirming, serving not only as a source of encouragement but also as a strategic compass that illuminates areas requiring further institutional fortification and performance enhancement.
In this regard, the Agency candidly recognises past lapses where they existed and unequivocally reiterates its unwavering commitment to continuous operational refinement, professional excellence and service delivery that meets global best practices.
LASTMA extends its deepest appreciation to His Excellency, the Executive Governor of Lagos State, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Transportation, and the entire top management of the Ministry of Transportation (MOT) for their visionary leadership, sound policy direction and steadfast support. Their guidance continues to provide the impetus that drives the Agency’s mandate and strengthens its resolve to serve the people of Lagos State with integrity and efficiency.
The Agency also specially commends the resilience, professionalism and uncommon dedication of LASTMA officers who laboured tirelessly, day and night, often under strenuous and high-pressure conditions, to safeguard lives, maintain traffic orderliness and sustain seamless mobility across the metropolis.
Their selfless commitment remains the backbone of the Agency’s successes.
Furthermore, LASTMA expresses sincere appreciation to the general public for their remarkable cooperation and commendable level of compliance, particularly during the Ember Months and the recent Detty December festivities. This collective sense of civic responsibility significantly contributed to improved traffic management outcomes during periods of heightened vehicular and human activity.
The Authority assures all stakeholders that this collective support and constructive engagement further reinforces its determination to deliver even more efficient, responsive and people-centred traffic management services in Lagos State.
Signed:
Olalekan Bakare-Oki
