He enthused; “There is a popular saying that, when purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. Let me explain the strategic goal of this motivational initiative. It is to ensure we can deliver better value to the people”.
In terms of attitude to work the Governor declared thus, “We want Lagosians to enter our offices and meet warm and friendly officials who are smart and willing to work faster and better. Lagosians deserve the best public service that is highly motivated and target-driven”.
He explained to the Directors, the outcomes that the government envisaged from this great gesture; “It merits emphasis that these vehicles would serve the purpose of enhancing our Directors’ productivity and efficiency”, he emphasized.

Fashola said, “This remarkable gesture will undoubtedly have a profound impact on our daily lives. Your belief in us and your willingness to go above and beyond have truly touched our hearts”, he said.
He promised more dedication and better performance by all the directors and the entire work force and not the recipients of the vehicles alone.
The vehicles were allocated to Directors who won during a ballot organized by the Office of the Head of Service.
According to the Head of Service, the exercise will be conducted periodically to give other Directors opportunities to participate and get vehicles allocated to successful personnel.
