The Head of Service, Mr. Bode Agoro, made the announcement in a statement shared with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday.
According to Agoro, the decision aligns with the implementation of the new minimum wage in the public service and aims to enhance service delivery.
“It is hereby notified for general information that the governor has approved the cancellation of the work-from-home initiative in the Lagos State Public Service.”
He further clarified that the initiative, which had been in effect since February 2024, will officially end on March 31, 2025.
“The cancellation of the work-from-home initiative, which has been in place since February 2024, will take effect on March 31,” he said.
