Abeg help beg the contractors on Lagos Mile 2- Badagry Express way to know what they are to do on that road. To start a shift on that road too won't be a bad idea. Sanwo Olu take note plead to the federal government on our behalf. Sanwo Eko Next level

Night road rehabilitation, it is not a new thing....


Yes o, the title is misleading - Not road construction, should be either road patching or road re-habitation grin grin grin

Night work, an opportunity to do shuddy work. What am seeing in those pictures is like scratching the surface. Lagos roads need real overhauling. Anything worth doing is worth doing well once and for all.

I don't mean to belittle the work of Lagos State Government. It's just that were not judging Lagos in the right context.

We only think Lagos is superb because we're comparing it to our neglected rural areas.

The Nigerian system allocates 80% of it's resources for urban centres. So in South West only Lagos and Ibadan share not less than 50% of federal development allocation. Add that to all the extortion from public toilets, toll gates, NURTW and stuff. We should be getting a city like Ankara, Johannesburg and Cairo.

For example that Sango to Oshodi road should be nothing less than six lanes on each side.

My point is Lagos is not close to what it should look like.
Rome wasn't built in a day. Lagos is pushing it compared to other states.

Nice one keep it up Sanwo. You've truly proven you have actually lived as a hustler in the Western World because most western world do most road construction at night to avoid hitch for tax payers going to their various businesses and offices.

God bless.

This is not road construction, it definitely won't be durable judging from the attire of those workers.
AutoReportNG:
The Lagos State Government has embarked on massive road rehabilitation across the state. The unit charged with road maintenance and construction, the Lagos State Public Works Corporation has started work in full force but this time, with a twist. Having studied the ever-busy Lagos, they have decided to work at nights.

A list which was obtained by AutoReportNG shows that they have time-tables for every part of the state.

For Wednesday night, for example, they are working on Ikeja, Apapa, Apapa, Mushin, Eti-Osa etc roads. 14 roads for night rehabilitation work across 11 Local Government areas tonight 17th July 2019

These are some of the work they have done this week as obtained by AutoReportNG

Re: Lagos Begins Night Road Construction Across The State, See Their Timetable by COMPAQ(m): 9:50am On Jul 18, 2019
We need to stop this practice of using substandard road maintenance practices. Going by the picture I saw, I can tell you that the road maintenance being done will not last more than one year. By next years rains, particularly if there is poor drainage there, it will likely wash away.

Left to me, we should use proper civil contractors like hi tech, RCC, even JB if necessary etc to do our road maintenance. While many may say we need to give our local contractors a chance, the truth is that they are not doing themselves any favours. It's much better to spend more to do top quality road works that last than spending less to do road maintenance that washes away in 6 months.

Please whomever gave those contractors working on Cele - Oshodi express way contract... God shall do to you what they are doing to mankind.

I hae never seen clueless contractors like that... Since they started work.. we are still yet to understand what is it they are doing... are they laying pipings for telecommunications companies or pipes for oil and gas companies or are they improving the height of the road divider or doing the road contruction?

the worst part is their road diversion strategy... How do you divert traffic to a smaller lane which is yet to be fixed(e.g balet bus stop, ilasa bus stop and now mandilas bus stop.

Please Baba Sanwo Olu… remember to look holistically at Isolo LCDA... all our roads are in an amazingly bad state.

Lol...na you generate your fictitious data, analyze am, come still use am draw conclusion and recommendations. I think one of our bane as a country is that a lot of people in government are working on the kind of fictitious data you generated. Federal government allocation to Lagos and Ondo are about the same, I dont understand where you got your 50% from. Let us even assume you are right...Federal government allocation to the whole of southwest yearly is an average of 250 -300 billion as a gross after debt servicing doubt if the whole of SW earn more than 150 billion. 300 billion ~$800 million. 60-70% of allocations will take care of overheads...salary and co. How do you think any government will build Ankara or Johanesburg with that kind of Meagre allocation? For your education , State of Florida budget for 2019 is over $ 90 billion...This is a well built up state with just about 21 million people...But you want to build modern cities witj meagre $200-300 million. Wrong assumptions are usually the reasons why passionate leader get to power and struggle to pay salary for 8 years. Time such leader should have used to generate income generation ideas has been used to make mountain out of a mole hill. It is hightime Nigerians understand and realized how horribly poor the country is, so that we can stop voting empty heads with grandiose promises.
