The Federal Executive Council on Wednesday approved a contract for the rehabilitation of the Ikorodu-Shagamu Road which links Lagos State to Ogun State.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, disclosed this to State House correspondents at the end of the council’s meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.


Mohammed put the cost of the rehabilitation contract at N20bn.

He said the rehabilitation would reduce accidents and travel time on the road.

The minister said, “The significance of the award of this contract is that it will reduce road accidents and loss of lives.

“Of course, it will reduce travel time and operating cost for transporters and commuters, and more importantly, it will enhance the movement of petroleum and agricultural products and also facilitate other commercial activities.


“If you remember, Mosinmi, the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation depot is along that line.”

The Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, also said the council approved N4.233bn for fire-fighting equipment.

AT LAST....
I remember seeing a full truck load of cement (around 500 bags) Almost falling on top of an 18 seater bus some 2 years ago.
It was a chilling experience.

We saw the contractor with their equipment but they left second day. We need this road biko.

20 billion to rehabilitate a 34 km road... Hmmmm.
That amount to an average of 500 million per kilometer. What will it cost to build a new road. This current administration is a scam!

It is well..

Is like development is been directed to certain region while the others sit and watch. Is the formula of One Nigeria working? FG receive SLAP
