Speaking at the 2025 Workers’ Day celebration, attended by members of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC), Sanwo-Olu reaffirmed his commitment to working with Tinubu for the benefit of Nigerians.
The governor also pledged to prioritize the welfare of Lagos State workers, emphasizing that the state remains a leader in providing competitive compensation and has consistently met its obligations for salary and pension payments despite economic challenges.
“The welfare and dignity of our workers remain central to our development agenda,” he said.
He called on workers to exercise patience with the federal government’s ongoing economic reforms, as they are beginning to yield tangible results.
Praising President Tinubu’s courageous leadership, Sanwo-Olu emphasized that Tinubu’s decisions were aimed at promoting long-term development for the benefit of the nation.
“The president’s reforms are beginning to bear fruits, given the growth we have witnessed in the agricultural sector which has led to a reduction in food prices,” he said.
“Today, let us celebrate not only with songs and salutes, but with a renewed spirit of solidarity. Let us recommit to building a country where every hand finds purpose and every labour finds reward.”
In a post on his X handle, Sanwo-Olu congratulated Tinubu on the second anniversary of his administration, calling him a true democrat and visionary.
“Two years ago, Nigerians entrusted you with a mandate rooted in hope, vision, and the promise of renewal,” he said.
“Since then, you have embraced the demands of office with courage and determination, making difficult but necessary decisions in the interest of long-term national development.
“Over the past two years, we have witnessed bold actions, foundational reforms, and a focused effort to deliver on the Renewed Hope Agenda.
“Leadership is never without challenges, but meaningful progress is being made.
“Under your guidance, the Renewed Hope Agenda has grown beyond a vision. It now serves as a framework guiding policy, reform, and governance across key sectors.
“As governor of Lagos State, I stand in full support of your vision and remain committed to working together for the good of all Nigerians.
“Congratulations once again, Mr President. May the journey ahead be even more impactful.”
