Lagos State Governor Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu has assured taxpayers that their taxes would not be spent on frivolities but on profitable ventures that would enhance the state’s economic growth and residents’ well-being.

The governor stated this while commissioning the second phase of the upgraded and rehabilitated network of roads in the state’s Eti-Osa local government area.

Governor Sanwo-Olu said his administration is determined to transform the state and ensure productivity.

He said, “As we all know, transportation infrastructure is the backbone of any thriving economy. In Lagos State, we recognise that every aspect of our social and economic life depends on an efficient, reliable, and sustainable transportation network.

“When we envisioned the Greater Lagos dream, we set out to build a safe, clean, and prosperous state—a place where opportunities abound, and the quality of life continues to improve for all residents. One of the biggest impediments to realising this vision was the man-hours lost in traffic congestion and the persistent flooding challenges in certain areas. These were issues we could not ignore.

“Our administration’s THEMES+ Agenda placed transportation and traffic management as a critical priority. We understood that providing world-class road infrastructure would enhance mobility, catalyse economic growth, improve productivity, and make Lagos more competitive globally.

Governor Sanwo-Olu explained that his administration has been devoted to rehabilitating, upgrading, and, in some cases, reconstructing roads across all five state divisions since its inception.

“These efforts are guided by our commitment to creating seamless access within and between communities, reducing travel time and enhancing productivity. Ikoyi, renowned as a hub of economic activity and the property capital of Lagos, has been central to our development agenda.

Earlier, Special Adviser on Infrastructure Engr Olufemi Daramola explained that the network of roads would complement the previously commissioned Phase 1, which included Milverton, MacDonald, Lateef Jakande Avenue, Thompson Avenue, Reeve and Onilegbale Roads.

He said, “Under the visionary leadership of Mr Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, the Lagos State government is focused on creating sustainable, modern infrastructure to improve mobility, reduce travel time, and enhance the quality of life for Lagosians. The rehabilitation of these roads is a key step in realising that vision.’’
