According to the council chairman, the vehicles will enhance the capacity of field officers to carry out their responsibilities effectively, while reducing operational challenges previously encountered in the discharge of official duties. He noted that the move would significantly improve accountability and efficiency in revenue administration.
Hon. Benson Ayodele further reiterated his administration’s commitment to prudent management of public resources and strategic investments that would yield long-term benefits for the people of Imota LCDA.

The Chairman also urged revenue officers to ensure proper maintenance and responsible usage of the council’s assets. He stressed the importance of dedication, professionalism, and integrity in the discharge of their duties for the overall progress and development of the local council.
The Council Manager, Mr. Akinyemi Olusegun, commended the initiative, describing it as a practical step towards improving the operational capacity of the council administration.

The three new buses will be presented officially on Monday by the Chairman.
