Lagos State Signage and Advertisement Agency (LASAA) has launched new porta cabin offices located in Badagry Local Government Secretariat, Ikorodu Local Government Secretariat, Lagos Television premises and LASAA warehouse. This initiative aims to bring the Agency closer to its many clients and improve the regulation of outdoor advertising landscape, ultimately optimizing revenue generation for the State.
Speaking at the launching of the new offices, the Managing Director/CEO of the Agency, Prince Fatiu Akiolu said they are extensions of the Agency’s branches across the State. According to him, “The porta cabins launched are not just physical structures, they represent our ongoing commitment to enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of our operations.”
The MD explained that, with the rapid growth of our city and the increase in the formation of businesses, Lagos has become a dynamic hub for innovation and creativity, and with that comes the need for sophisticated solutions to manage our operations better to meet the rise in the display of business signs in the State.
In his words, “Strategically situating the offices is important to the
Lagos State Government for revenue optimization as it will impact positively on
the development of the State, as we demonstrate our support for Mr Governor, Mr
Babajide Sanwoolu towards actualizing a much greater Lagos.” He further
explained that, “It has become necessary for the Agency to provide these decent
portal cabins for the convenience of our staff members and by extension, for
our revered walk-in clients who visit to register their business signs and make
relevant enquiries.”
He averred that, “These portal cabins symbolize a major step
forward in our operations at LASAA. The provisions reflect our dedication to
embracing innovation and modernization to improve our service delivery. With
these new facilities, we are not just upgrading our operational capabilities;
we are also ensuring that our processes are more efficient, accessible, and
transparent. Each facility is fitted with air-conditioners, computers, tables,
chairs, bathrooms, and kitchens,” Prince Fatiu stated.
Also speaking, the Deputy General Manager, Operations and
Innovations of LASAA, Mr Adegbolahan Dixon made it known that it has become
imperative to open new porta cabin offices to complement the existing ones as
some local governments in the State do not have spaces where they can construct
new office buildings. According to him, “We decided to approach some sister
agencies with spaces within their premises to set up the porta cabin offices to
reach more clients.” He said that, “The overriding idea is to be close to our
existing and potential customers instead of them going to our head office to
transact business. With these offices that are close to them, they can
interface with our members of staff who will guide them on how to register and
obtain permits for their business signs.”
Dixon also revealed that the Agency has opened a good number
of the offices this year which are effectively serving a purpose and that more
will be opened for operational expansion next year.
The Lagos State Signage and Advertisement Agency (LASAA) was
established by the Lagos State Structures for Signage and Advertisement Agency
Law, 2006 and the Amendment, thereto is responsible for regulating and
controlling outdoor advertising and signage displays in Lagos State. In its
commitment to excellence, the Agency plays a crucial role in shaping the visual
landscape of Lagos through effective regulation and innovative solutions.
