The Federal Government is planning to make the controversial Lagos/Ibadan expressway a 10-lane road.

Chairman of the Federal Road Maintenance Agency (FERMA), Mr Jide Adeniji, made this known in Lagos on Tuesday.

He also disclosed that in the next two years, every federal road in the country would be motorable.

He spoke with reporters at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders’ forum.

According him, “you can see that there has being a tremendous improvement on our roads, because all my men work days and nights and I can tell you that in the next two years, every federal road in the country will be motorable, as Ferma is working hard towards that.

“All this was made possible by the transformation agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.”

Speaking on the state of Lagos/Ibadan expressway, the Ferma boss said the road was on its way to redemption as there would be reconstruction of the road.

“Lagos/Ibadan route is better than what it used to be. It is going to be a pure reconstruction and realignment as the government tends to increase the number of each side lane to five.”

“The Minister of Works had talked about it and there is an agenda from the Ministry of Works and by the time the agenda comes out, proper attention concerning Lagos/Ibadan expressway will be given to it,” he said.

The Federal Government does NOT have the competence to manage a ten-lane highway.

these people must really think Nigerians are fools and all illiterates. Na by mouth dem dey repair roads?
Nonsense! just repair the road, shikena! now they start promising heaven and hell.

By the way, now some paid GEJ goons, armed with laptops and internet have been trolling threads and forums lately, echoing the same things under different aliases, and attempting to white wash the nonsense administration. It is a notorious fact that Nigerians have never had it this bad and rough, with the cocktail of unemployment, homelessness, corruption in the corridors of government, poverty and infrastructural decay at its all time high. And so, how they attempt to deceive us from this reality with their nonsense talks remains a mystery.

No matter how much the rain falls, it can never wash away the spots of a leopard. GEJ/PDP has failed miserably, that fact cannot be contested.
