Lagos State Government has urged workers to gain new knowledge and techniques that will aid their agencies in delivering higher productivity and services to the residents.
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Agriculture and Food Systems, Mr. Emmanuel Audu, emphasised the importance of continuous learning and skills development in today’s dynamic world.
He spoke during an in-house training with the theme: ‘Capacity building towards higher productivity and effective service delivery’, for workers of Lagos State Agricultural Input Supply Authority (LAISA).
Audu described the training as a critical step toward transforming the state’s agricultural landscape.
Represented by Mrs Olawunmi Akinola, the permanent secretary said by equipping its workforce with the latest knowledge and techniques, the state government could significantly boost output, reduce waste and build a more resilience food system for Lagos and Nigeria.
A former permanent secretary in Lagos State civil service and a three-time member of the House of Representatives, Mr Wale Raji, praised LAISA, saying ‘’the agency is headed in the right direction” under its new leadership.
He expressed pride in the work of the General Manager, Mrs. Olufolake Oluyemi, and her management team, noting that the training would not only refresh the workers’ knowledge, but also serve as an opportunity for self-appraisal.
