The Ketu-Ikorodu road is a Federal Road but the Lagos state govt decided to do it because of a "dead" Federal govt. 1 Like |

Believe me the road is really a federal road,just like the badagry express road. It's really annoying that the FG takes a huge chunk of the resources of the federation and yet does absolutely nothing with it!!! |

This is some welcome news o! I was born and bred in Ketu. I lived in Ikorodu for 8yrs and trust me traffic turned me into something else. I use to spend 3.5-to-4hrs daily on the average when going back home every evening from VI. I got so bad that I joined the bandwagon of taking the Okada option (the only thing I shied away from was sitting 2 passengers). Any festive period, we stayed at home throughout as traffic prevented us from leaving Ikorodu..... The road is long overdue for fixing.. |

The whole length of Ikorodu road is a federal road. Even up to Sagamu road that leads to mosinmi. inspbado: Believe me the road is really a federal road,just like the badagry express road.

Okija_juju:Okija you don't H̲̣̣̣̥ɑ̤̥̈̊vє̲̣̥ to insult the guy to make ur point. Back to your post. You are quite right about the IGR and allocation stuff concerning Lagos state. But I think other states too can make a difference with their "small allocation and IGR". After all, we do read d dailies as to how some of these elected officials "manage" the finances of their respective states. Corruption and money laundering tales here and there yet they choose to make people believe that they can't make a significant contribution to the states' development based on their allocation and all those noise. The issue of lack of funds, limited IGR,etc are just smoke screen and a way of justifying their inadequacies. You don't H̲̣̣̣̥ɑ̤̥̈̊vє̲̣̥ be a governor of Lagos state to perform. Even if u allocate the whole resources of the country to one state, and the state lacks a committed and right thinking govt., they are doomed. My point is that allocation or IGR and right thinking,focused/ committed Government are separate but are linked if both H̲̣̣̣̥ɑ̤̥̈̊vє̲̣̥ the chance to meet one another. I could be wrong though... |

I have seen too many of this "Chinese Shakara" to start clapping or shouting Halleluyaah! Let me see them finish the road within one year, let me watch the road undergo just one season of rainfall, if it is still standing, then l will give both Fashola and the Chinese lads A STANDING OVATION. Until then, my fingers are crossed and l am holding my breath. Lastpage! |

What of Ikorodu Shagamu Road through LAPOSTECH? That place is a death trap,because when you pass through Ikorodu, LASPOTECH,Ogijo, NNPC Fasanmi,after Ogjio to Shagamu is a death trap, the road is a killer road and during rainy season, the road is on-passable. Please let Ogun state government and Lagos state government look into this and rehabilitate that road as it is in a bad state. |

Okija_juju: Who is this dullard? What has the federal government done for Lagos? Pre-Fashola, why did we not see the so called impact of the FG on Lagos? What was the IGR when Lagos was the Nation capital? The fact that Lagos has a lot of IGR means that it is well run and governed. You think say generating IGR na moi moi? What is stopping Anambra or any other Nigerian state from putting measures in place that will yield a high IGR. Lagos has shown the way; All other states in Nigeria including all the other Yoruba states need to follow.. 1 Like |

Demdem: In my opinion there are two schools of thought that pose challenges going forward here. One relates to ownership, another relates to use. That road may well bear a Federal seal of ownership right up to Ijebu Ode or wherever but the road has never been contiguous. It has an urban section that spurs from the Ibadan - Lagos - Apapa expressway with a little set back to Mile 12. At this point it becomes a single carraige highway. That was the way the Feds left it when they shipped out in 91. It may not have been sufficient then but you can hardly blame the Federal government for Lagos urban growth when they have very few assets left there. Neither can you expect them to develop what amounts to two capital cities at the same time. The urbanisation of Ikorodu is a Lagos thing, normal under state developmental policies and whatever master plan is conceived should include roads so if they expand an urban road where does the Federal government get the blame afterall whatever income is derived as a result of this investment goes to the state. Lagosians should go easy when trading blame with the Feds over infrastructure because they enjoy the residues of Federal patronage in the same measure as they have to give. |

Genius100: For someone who used "GENIUS" as his User I.D and even called me Dullard, you sound like a r'etarded Anancephalic Quadruplege.. So you have no Idea that up until 1991, Lagos has always been the Capital of Nigeria abi?! You seem to forget that virtually all that Lagos has got going on today was from the Original Masterplan of Lagos for when it was the Country's capital. What has the Federal Government done for Lagos.. Start with the Third Mainland Bridge.. Start with all the investment the Federal Government left in Lagos and moved to Abuja?! Abi you think say it was by Yoruba peoples power and might that Lagos is what it is Today?! Abi you no know say Lagos is only coasting on wetin Federal Government leave for them?! The only new addition would be Lekki and Eko Towers when done. Apapa and Tin Can are not the best Port in Nigeria, however, because Lagos was the former Capital and had so much investments and Government offices there, naturally business flowed into the place and never left after the movement of State Capital especially as Abuja has no port. If you think that Lagos being the former Capital of Nigeria is not in anyway responsible for Lagos retaining it title as commercial Capital of Nigeria, then you are one of those se'men that should have been ma'sturbated not fertilized.. |

Okija_juju: Okija i know u don't have a single sense of reasoning. What has FG done for Lagos? FG has not commissioned anything since Tinubu era. You mean no other Yoruba State is doing well? Have you ever been to Ondo? Have you visited Ogun recently or Ekiti. I am very sure by the time these govs spend their 4 years single terms Anambra will still be crawling as usual behind them. |

Okija_juju: You have a valid point here my brother. No one is contesting that Lagos is not the nerve center of Nigeria. But wait Okija I don't understand you. Do you mean to tell me that other states can't plan as well? I am not saying every state must be like Lagos but there should be some level of commitment on the part of the governors in achieving their earlier stated goals and "manifestos" during election. Even in advanced countries all places can't be on the same level. It seems most people are yet to realize that we have be hearing the same "God-knows-how-much-point-agenda" for over a decade now (good roads, electricity, education and all that nose). Though, I do agree that many factors do come into play.e.g.Continuity etc i could be wrong... |

lastpage: I have seen too many of this "Chinese Shakara" to start clapping or shouting Halleluyaah! Three dead in newly-built Chinese bridge collapse 24 August 2012 Last updated at 06:59 GMT Yangmingtan Bridge in Harbin in China's north-east Heilongjiang province The Yangmingtan Bridge in Harbin City cost 1.88bn yuan ($286m) to build A section of a multi-million dollar bridge in China that opened in November has collapsed, leaving three people dead and five injured, state media say. Four lorries fell off the Yangmingtan Bridge in Harbin City, Heilongjiang province, when part of it collapsed, Xinhua news agency said. Shoddy construction and over-loading have been blamed for the incident, it added. Officials said they will investigate to see if the lorries were overloaded. The bridge, which spans the Songhua river and is 15.42km (9.58 miles) long, was finished nine months ago and cost 1.88bn yuan ($286m), Xinhua said. A 100m (328ft) ramp section collapsed, causing the lorries to plummet to the ground. Sun Qingde, an official on Harbin's construction committee, was quoted by Xinhua as saying that the ramp "tilted to one side and crashed onto the ground". This is the sixth major bridge collapse in China since July 2011, the agency said. The lorries were carrying feed and stones, officials from the Harbin municipal government was quoted by People's Daily Online newspaper as saying at a press conference. They added that the bridge and other city roads will be checked. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-19365154
