GOVERNOR SANWO-OLU VISIT INSPIRES JAKANDE ACADEMY FELLOWS

•Governor meets interns, discusses knowledge-based service

Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Friday, shared an inspiring moment with interns admitted into Lateef Jakande Leadership Academy (LJLA), engaging the fellows on purposeful leadership and knowledge-based service.

The meeting, held at Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s Place – the Academy’s office in Alausa – was the first that the Governor had with the interns after their induction in February to undertake one-year practical training on leadership.

The 32 Nigerians under age 35 from diverse backgrounds, who were selected as pioneer set, are currently on posting to Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDA) in Lagos, learning and contributing to governance.

LJLA Executive Secretary, Ayisat Agbaje-Okunade, led the fellows to receive the Governor to the Academy’s office.

Sanwo-Olu, during the no-holds-barred session, had a robust conversation with the fellows, learning about their experiences on the fellowship journey and their challenges in their respective roles at the MDAs.

The Governor said the LJLA was an initiative set up to experiment the progressive nature of the public sector to raise future leaders, noting that the platform offered the fellows opportunity to collaborate and build problem-solving expertise.
