Akinwunmi Ambode, governor of Lagos state, will on Monday swear-in the new sole administrators of the 20 local government areas and 37 local council development areas in the state.

According to a statement issued by Tunji Bello, secretary to the state government, the ceremony will take place at the Banquet Hall of Lagos House, Ikeja.

The statement added that the sole administrators, after being sworn-in, would take charge of their various councils pending the conduct of local poll later this year.
