Activist lawyer Femi Falana (SAN) has urged the Lagos State House of Assembly to enact a law on social security
Part of the provisions, he said, will be a social register through which the poor and vulnerable can be paid money rather than ineffective food handouts.
Falana made the call at the monthly stakeholder’s interactive roundtable on public policy making and execution tagged Citizens Accountability and Rights Forum (CARF).
Its theme was: “Lawmaking in Lagos State: Implications and Effects on Human and Socio-economic Rights of the People.”
It was organised by the Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CDHR) in collaboration with the Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership (CACOL).
