Image
The Commissioner of Lagos State Audit Service Commission, Hon. Musiliu Aigoro on Monday doled out over 200 free BOS Cowrie cards to Kosofe residents. According to the Audit service Commissioner, the B.O.S Cowrie Cards are gifts from the State Governor Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu and could be used to pay for BRT, LAG Ferry and Lagos Light Rail fares. The free distribution of the Cowrie Cards by the Lagos State Government is part of efforts being made to cushion the negative effects of Naira redesign and Cashless policy of the CBN on Lagosians. On Monday over 200 beneficiaries of the gifts had their B.O.S Cowrie Cards instantly activated for them at the Oworonshoki residence of Hon. Musiliu Aigoro. While another set of people who could not be attended to on Monday have had their names written down for the free Cowrie Cards.
