Speaking about his plan for flood and waste management issues in the state, Rhodes-Vivour raised the need to unbundle the water corporation system, have a wetland protection plan, and recycle waste to generate an alternative source of energy.

He also pledged to deliver about 160 kilometres of the rail network in four years, which he said will help to decentralise development in Lagos because centralization of development is one of the major problems in the development of the state.
