The Lagos State Law Reform Commission has urged Fellows of the Lateef Jakande Leadership Academy to embrace law reform as a tool for improving governance, public service delivery and sustainable development.

The call was made during an interactive session between the commission and the Fellows as part of the Academy’s Brown Bag Series and Institutional Learning Visit to the agency.

Speaking at the event, the Executive Secretary of the commission, Oluyemisi Ogunlola, said effective governance depends on laws that evolve with changing social, economic and technological realities.

“Laws are not static instruments. They must continuously evolve to reflect the realities, aspirations and emerging needs of society.

“Effective law reform ensures that governance remains responsive, institutions remain relevant, and development is supported by a modern and enabling legal framework,” she said.
