EKO HOT BLOG reports that the management of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority on Friday promoted 267 junior staff of the agency as approved by the Personnel Management Board on Promotion.
The General Manager of LASTMA, Bakare Oki, said the promotion of officers by the government was in line with the ongoing strategic repositioning of the agency for more effective service delivery to the general public, particularly motorists.
According to a statement by the spokesperson for the agency, Adebayo Taofiq, the LASTMA boss confirmed that while 26 junior officers were promoted from grade level 05 to 06, 241 others were elevated from grade Level 05 to 06 including males and females.
The GM further confirmed that their general promotion was approved based on good credibility and efficiency in performance on duty.
“The agency will continue to reward diligent, committed and hardworking personnel of the agency to encourage them to do more,” he said.
Oki maintained that those few bad ones embarrassing the good image of the agency would be continuously dealt with by the provisions of Civil Service Rules.
He, therefore, urged members of the public particularly motorists to always adhere to every traffic law and regulation as contained in the Lagos State Traffic Sector Reform Law 2018.
Meanwhile, the agency, as part of its statutory responsibilities in ensuring an unimpeded flow of traffic across the state, deployed more personnel, patrol and tow vehicles to strategic locations.
