Sanwo-Olu Thanks Lagos Residents, Vows More Transformation In 2023  

Lagos State Governor on Friday thanked Lagosians for the massive support given to his administration in 2022, even as he commissioned a network of transport infrastructure to create a fast access between boundary towns of Lagos and Ogun states.

Sanwo-Olu who spoke while commissioning the newly-rehabilitated Isuti Road in Igando, Ishefun-Camp Davies Road and Ijon-Liasu Ojo-Ijo Road to relieve the residents of traffic burden said the road infrastructure has improved connectivity and solved traffic congestion in the area.

The Governor also commissioned a newly built T-shaped jetty in Ishefun riverine community to facilitate seamless ferry services to other boundary towns along the river channel. A ferry journey takes seven minutes to Igbesa, an Ogun State town.

Governor Sanwo-Olu said the projects were testimony of his administration’s determination to improve the wellbeing of the people, regardless of their status.

He said the development had solved the perennial traffic congestion experienced in the area, adding that the ancillary lighting facilities had improved the security situation in the area.

“It is a great day in Alimosho, the largest Local Government Area in the country, where we are inaugurating projects that will impact the quality of life of our citizens.’’ My administration acknowledges the strategic position of this big constituency that has five local councils. The delivery of these projects further demonstrates that people remain at the centre of our activities in Government. We don’t want to come here only for political campaigns; we also want to come and raise the hope of our people.

In her address, the Special Adviser to the Governor on Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Aramide Adeyoye, said the infrastructure projects were initiated in response to deplorable conditions of roads arising from growing population in area areas.

She said the development had changed the narrative after 12 months of initiating the infrastructure, stressing that the significance of the projects was the creation of hubs for water transportation to Agbara and other coastal communities in Badagry and neighboring Ogun State.
