"The development of guidelines for urban renewal programme in Lagos State is timely and a milestone in the realisation of the State Government’s T.H.E.M.E.S agenda. With this, there will be sustainable solutions to slums and informal settlements in Lagos State" Salako said.
He maintained that the guidelines would enhance slum redevelopment in line with international best practices, noting that the strategic phase of the programme had been completed alongside scoping meetings, training, planning charterer, terms of reference formulation and validation amongst other components.
While revealing that the workshop served as kick-off for the implementation stage of the urban development programme, Salako expressed gratitude to the United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Office for its technical assistance in the area of urban planning since 2018 when the discussion on Global Future Cities Programme was initiated.
