PRESS RELEASE:

The Lagos State Government has announced that traffic will be restricted on Monday 23rd January with diversion on the Island on Tuesday 24th January, 2023 in preparation for the visit of Mr. President to Lagos State.

In a statement released by the Lagos State Ministry of Transportation, the Commissioner, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde assured that alternative routes have been mapped out as well as the deployment of the State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA to manage Traffic flow during the 2 day visit.

Explaining the routes that would be manned by the LASTMA Personnel, the Commissioner stated that; on the First day which is Monday 23rd, movement around Lagos Rice Mill, Imota in Ikorodu, and the Lekki Deep Port Sea axis will be restricted.

While on the Second day which is Tuesday 24th, movement around Eko Hotels and Suites, Ahmadu Bello Way, J-Randle through to Broad Street and Outer Marina will be diverted from 6.00am to 3.00pm.

Pleading with Motorists for their cooperation, Oladeinde highlighted the alternative routes made available as options for Motorists depending on the desired destinations.

The options according to the movement plan will have Motorists diverted from Ahmadu Bello Way, Ademola Adetokunbo and Akin Adesola Street to Falomo Bridge (Five Cowries Bridge), to Alfred Rewane Road to connect their desired destinations.

While Motorists that are Onikan bound from Ozumba Mbadiwe and Bonny Camp are enjoined to make use of Falomo Bridge (Five Cowries Bridge) or Awolowo Road.

The Transport Commissioner further stated that Motorists from Awolowo Road heading to Onikan Roundabout, Tinubu Square or any other part of the inner Island will make use of Falomo Roundabout to link Alfred Rewane to further their journeys.

Another diversion option made available according to the statement is for Motorists from King George V Road to connect Moloney Street and then Obalende for their desired destinations, or alternatively link Turton Street through Moloney Street to Lewis and Sandgrouse Streets.

For the Motorists from Eko Bridge trying to link Marina, they will be diverted to Elegbata, Ebute Ero to Police Post to link the 3rd Mainland Bridge (Adeniji Adele) to further connect their desired destinations.

While stressing that all the adjourning Streets leading to the dedicated routes for the movement of Mr. President will be temporarily closed.

Oladeinde assures motorists of a well mapped out strategy to minimize delays and inconveniences of road users.

Signed;
Dr. Frederic Oladeinde,

Buhari of all people. The only significance he has is being the president. He has already faded away even before his expiry date. The man that wasted a good eight years that Nigeria supposed to use for better things. These governors can celebrate nonsense

"Road closure" thereby putting innocent citizens and road users in undue hardship.

All these Peter Obi will stop insha Allah.

Please appreciate Lagos State a beautiful city single handedly built by Tilumbu from scratch to finish.
Even as 40% strategic cabinet members of Buhari regime whr hand-picked by Tilumbu, we delusively believe he will do better than Buhari as President.

Minister of Works and Power...Tilumbu slot (only dis office can solve 70% of Nigeria's problems)

Labour and Employment(state)... Tilumbu slot (yet over 67% of the population underemployed or unemployed)

Housing... Tilumbu slot

FIRS... Tilumbu slot up until 2019

Mining... Tilumbu slot

Etc

Just like a magical spell we believe his administration will be different from Buhari.
Nigerians love suffering and Tilumbu is all they deserve.
As long as heaven and earth remains, I and my family and so many other well meaning homes will never lack.

Let's see who will suffer the most... please vote for Tilumbu APC, nobody is begging u to have sense.

Another traffic day ahead for lagosians. But must this happen every time? Does it happen in saner climes? Why do you have to close some roads because president is visiting. It is not fair on the residents!

Any cursed wretched person from that IPOB terrorists tribe that is caught constituting public nuisance hawking fake products or littering the environment with their filthy selves or selling gala inside traffic will be sent to jail. Lagos will no longer tolerate any flat head criminal vagabonds

How’s he going to Ikorodu? Through Epe-Itokin road or Ikorodu-Itokin road?
Either ways, both roads that leads to Imota are bad.
