Poised to fulfill one of his campaign promises of investing massively in the construction of rural roads, the Lagos State Government has announced invitation for bids for the construction of 114 roads across the 20 Local Governments and 37 Local Council Development Areas in the State.

Recall that last Monday, while speaking at the Lagos House, Ikeja, during the monthly meeting with the Executive Secretaries of the 57 Councils to review the progress report in their various communities as well as their challenges, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode had disclosed that the decision to embark on the road rehabilitation was in line with the reforms at the local government level, noting that the first phase will commence with the reconstruction of 114 roads, two per local government, at the cost of N19 billion.

Ambode, who said the execution of the projects will be left in the care of the local governments, however, charged the Councils’ Executive Secretaries to judiciously ensure that the projects meet international standard.

According to the bidding invitation document sighted by Vanguard, each of the roads are to be delivered in six months from the commencement of works.

Meanwhile, residents of Ajegunle, a popular suburb of Lagos in the Ajeromi-Ifelodun Local Government Area, have decried that the apparent neglect by successive administrations to fix the numerous deplorable roads in their community.

Vanguard had authoritatively gathered that within the eight years stewardship of the last administration, just two road projects were sited in Ajegunle by the administration.

mehn cos see sufferness

Ok


The state of the major road that led to my community continue to make me feel bad. The Old Obadore road remain bad as it as for the past few years and it seems like the government have neglected it and show no concern. This is a community in Alimosho Local Government Area of Lagos State and Igando/Ikotun LCDA. It is a place where commercial and industrial activities take place. The residents of this community has been in hell for the past few years suffering bad road despite sharing boundary with Ogun State and serving as short cut to other communities in lagos, like Abaranje and Okerube.

The community is also confronted with some

infrastructuralchallenges as the government seems to have neglected akesan, there is problem of erosion which is caused by the absence of drainage system in the community.

Also, erosion and flooding which we experience year after year in the community are threat to our existence as a community, many families are yet to get over the damages it left behind.

During the period also, cars and other road users are prevented from using the road by erosion and flood. We are appealing to the government, our elected and appointed representativesto carry the community along in the developmental journey of the state. we therefore, appeal to the leadership of the local and state government to proffer lasting solution to alleviate the suffering, many of the affected are traders and residents that are regular tax payers.

LONG LIVE akesan!

LONG LIVE IGANDO/IKOTUN LCDA!

LONG LIVE ALIMOSHO LGA!

LONG LIVE LAGOS STATE!

LONG LIVE NIGERIA!

Its a very good development, but strategic places needs to be worked on, not just random roads. Bad roads that cause hold up.


BTW: No capitol road agege
Its a link to so many places, and no alternative routes.

Op why naaa my area no dey or we no vote ambo ni. Abeg no do ojoro oooooo

Good move. This should be the priority of any Governor of Lagos state So that South Africans will not mock us for claiming to be the largest Economy in Africa while having poor road network.
