While others are resting at home, the Lagos state governor is busy at work inspecting works across the state.

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode on Sunday flagged off the expansion of the ABAT Truck Terminal in Orile Iganmu, assuring that work would be accelerated on the 1000-capacity terminal to take trucks parked indiscriminately on the roads and bridges.

Governor Ambode, who led an extensive inspection of ongoing projects across the State that last for about six hours, said the expansion of the Terminal was one of the resolutions reached at the recent meeting with stakeholders, especially in the Maritime sector on finding lasting solutions to take containerized trucks permanently off the roads, a development that is majorly responsible for the gridlock in the Apapa area.

The Governor said: "One of the resolutions is that we should have authorised truck Terminal Park and so my visit to this place today is to flag off the reconstruction of this terminal so that we can accommodate 1000 trucks.

"We would do this in collaboration with the Nigeria Ports Authority so that the call-up system can work efficiently. The expansion we are adding to this particular terminal in which we have decided to acquire the adjoining land, we would use that primarily for non-petroleum trucks so that we can sectionalized these trucks and allow the call-up system to work.

"This is just part of the efforts that the State Government is making to make sure this Apapa gridlock and the truck menace becomes a thing of the past permanently."

Governor Ambode also disclosed that the State Government has concluded plans to utilise an expanse of land in Ijanikin area with a capacity to accommodate at least 5,000 trucks.

"I have just been briefed that we have an additional land space in Ijanikin that can accommodate 5000 trucks. We will explore that possibility immediately; all that we are doing is just to make sure that there is a permanent solution to this whole idea of trucks destroying our bridges and roads," he said.

Finish one project before you embark on another.
Story story story

Open up the seaports in the south south so as to decongest but naija will say no

Nice move

Nigeria is not a country but an evil forest
A few years back we all spoke about the seaports in the Niger delta and the old eastern region
We asked why is everything passing through Lagos
Oil oh na Lagos
Cement oh na Lagos
Container oh na Lagos
And of course what will the people of the south west tell you.
Tell your governors
Ask them what are they doing with your allocations
If e pain u
Leave Lagos
Go to your fillage the Facebook agberos screamed.

After the civil war there was a blanket policy to frustrate the then Midwest and old eastern region based on their role played in the war.
Thats why many people began to say I am not Igbo
If u had ten million in ur account with one big pen from awolowo ur account will read twenty pounds
We had people in the Niger delta who were igbos before begin to deny their igboness
Many removed some letters from their names
Many renamed their villages
Some even tried so hard to undo their history so as to escape the pen of the evil man awolowo

Today we have many I am not Igbo tribe running like headless chickens in the old eastern regions and the Niger delta
Its was OK
As the slaves began to deny their fathers so they can at least be given bread crumbs
The sea was blocked
Nothing goes in
Till date shipping companies charge war zone charge if you don't want ur container in Lagos and want it moved further east of Lagos

But what changed
Why the sudden shout from ambode
When this blanket policy was made
Nigeria was about twenty to fifty million people
Today we are two hundred million
Lagos can't take it
Ambode knows the problem
Instead of the federal govt to listen to him
They came with a PPP and awarded a contract to DANGOTE
Build the road to toll gate
Cosmetic surgery solution
We are watching
Ambode no ask us again to ask our governors
No one is saying what are your reps doing in the national assembly
What is ur senator doing
Na only to chop money dem sabi
Now ambode directed it to the real culprit
The Fulani lead federal system of Nigeria
Person wey carry pikin toy lift am up make pikin no fit reach am to play
When hand tire am
Him go drop am
One Nigeria indeed
The evil forest

oluwasegun007:
shey that place close to dust bin dumping site...
