Chairman Lagos State Park and Garages Management Committee, Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo has empowered three female drivers with vehicle for their operations.
A statement reads: "The act of benevolence is an inbuilt noble gesture of our great State Chaiman Alh. (Dr). Musiliu Ayinde Akinsanya.

"Furthermore, the act of gifting the bus to the female drivers shows the importance, recognition, and contributions of women in the workforce. It is a clear indication that the chairman values the hard work and dedication of his female drivers and is committed to supporting them in their endeavors to succeed.
"The beneficiaries who were selected at random by the State chairman while plying their routes of operations were deeply grateful for the given opportunity to be independent with the empowerment of vehicles for their operations.
"They were happy that their efforts are recognized and encouraged other women to not be discouraged from working as a driver as it is an occupation they are proud of and grateful for.
"Their vehicles were presented to the beneficiaries by the state chairman himself on 4th of May 2023 at the LASPG headquarters in oko oba agege, who expressed his joy in the act of charity and philanthropy act.
"The gesture of the state chairman is not only beneficial to the female drivers but also to society at large. By supporting the female drivers, he is contributing to the overall economic development of the state."
