Lagos State government has restated its commitment to safer and cleaner waterways.
LASWA’s General Manager Mr. Oluwadamilola Emmanuel made the revelation at the launch of the OsaGo waterways hailing App which held at the Five Cowries Terminal, on Saturday.
The LASWA chief described the hailing app as another commitment by the state government in sanitising the waterways saying that the government is open to initiatives aimed at maximising the potentials of the state’s waterways.
He said: “The launch of this app is another demonstration of the commitment to this government to maximise the opportunities in waterways transportation and to deliver on best practices that are capable of making the waterways more attractive to all classes of users.”
Emmanuel said as an agency, LASWA is committed to driving a well organised and properly regulated sub-sector of transportation, while making the waterways safer and cleaner for operators.
He commended the promoters of the OsaGo App for partnering with the state government in making the waterways safe, and attractive, adding that the app will undoubtedly open the sub-sector up for more patronage.
