Lagos Traffic Radio's 2026 Retreat

Powering the THEMES+ Agenda Through People and Purpose

Lagos Traffic Radio (LTR) recently held its Y2026 Management Retreat in Lekki, Lagos, themed Enhancing Organizational Productivity: Aligning People, Performance and Purpose — a bold declaration of the station's alignment with Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu's THEMES+ Agenda.

Honourable Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr. Gbenga Omotosho, charged staff to work harder and embrace new technological innovations, stressing that staying ahead requires forward thinking and a future-ready mindset.

Omotosho urged the station to expand its coverage area and maintain its No. 1 status by paying close attention to competition. He emphasized stronger social media presence, enriched with compelling graphics, photographs, and real-life situational content to deepen relevance.

The Commissioner was unequivocal — every lesson from the retreat must translate into action, driving measurable improvements in performance and service delivery.

Chairman of the Lagos State House of Assembly Committee on Information & Strategy and Security, Honourable Steven Olukayode Ogundipe — accompanied by colleague Honourable Samuel Apata — expressed pride in his association with LTR, commending the organisation's outstanding performance and its investment in staff capacity development.
