Signed by the Vice Chairman, Alaka LSDPC Community Development Association, Mr Bolaji Jubril, the statement praised the ex-governor for implementing the Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) housing programme, tapping the revenue resources derivable from land, providing affordable houses for the low and middle income citizens of Lagos State and making positive impact on the sands of time.

Jakande, an apostle of the ideology of democratic socialism preached by the Action Group (AG) in the early 1960s, is being honoured for providing the social welfare services needed by the good people of Lagos State.

Particularly, the statement applauded Jakande for leaving a legacy of transparency and buoyancy in Lagos State, promoting poverty alleviation through employment of thousands of Nigerians and protecting the good people of Lagos.

‘LKJ as he is fondly called is also being honoured for getting rid of the filth and unhealthy living conditions that existed then in Lagos State, transforming the slum areas and ghettos into a planned and habitable environment, putting in place a liberal policy of payment for the allotees of Government housing units and making Lagos State Development and Property Corporation (LSDPC) the most effective housing authority in Nigeria’’ the statement added
