The president announced that the rehabilitation of Lagos-Ibadan and Sagamu expressway would help 17 southern states in the country and respond to infrastructure needs of adjourning states.

Tinubu who was represented by Ogun State governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun reiterated his administration’s vision to link rural roads to urban centres, commercial hubs and industrial corridors.

He said this perfectly aligns with his Renewed Hope Agenda to rebuild, rehabilitate and expand national road networks, railways and other national assets and infrastructure that are important to the country.

The president while harping on the agenda responded that the Lagos-Ibadan expressway which primarily serves as commercial connectivity to the eastern part was crucial for the nation’s prosperity and a gateway to Nigeria’s hinterland and consolidated Ogun State’s historic reputation as the gateway to the nation’s prosperity.
