This is a federal project not state. Lagos generates too much money from IGR but nothing to show for it.
Go to ipaja, bariga, ikotun, abulegba, ayobo, satellite town, mile 12, ojo area and many places you will see poverty and bad roads everywhere.

Let a common Nigerian make same mistake, and English language teachers will be demanding for his head.

Good news.
I wish cargo trains connect all the six regions of Nigeria soon.

The cost of moving perishable foods from North to Lagos is responsible for the high cost of food in Lagos, especially tomatoes.
