The basic idea is that development is concentrated in the centre of the city (Lagos Island [especially Marina], Ikoyi, Victoria Island, Yaba, Surulere and Apapa) and the Ikeja area (Maryland, Oģba, Ilupeju, etc).
So the government wants to spread development eastwards (Lekki Free Trade Zone), southwards (Eko Atlantic City), westwards (Badagry Free Trade Zone and Energy City) and northwards (Ikorodu Industrial Estate [which will benefit from the new bridge].
This is to reduce pressure on the centre of the city and Ikeja. |

Correct. I forgot about Badagry.
But I think having 4 major seaports may lead to uncontrolled explosion in the state's population. Many firms would like to settle in Badagry and Lekki, which would attract more job seekers and their families to Lagos. Exactly. The Lekki and Badagry projects also incorporate new industrial areas and other projects beyond the ports. The Lekki port will have the Lekki Free Trade Zone, the Lekki International Airport (which has been on the drawing board since the 1980s), the Dangote Refinery, a lagoon port, Lekki Phase 2 and other projects as neighbours. The Badagry Port will have the Oando Refinery, a power plant and the Energy City as neighbours. |

Lagos will soon have 3 seaports and a first deep seaport. The city is fast turning to be the port capital of West Africa. 4 seaports (if everything goes according to plan). Apapa, Tin Can Island, Lekki and Badagry. |

Lekki Conservation Centre was built in the 1990s by the Nigerian Conservation Foundation. The project was funded by Chevron (Chevron's headquarters is close to the centre). I've been going there since 1997.
The Lagos State Government recently upgraded a portion of the centre into a family park (including a new elevated walkway). That's what the governor was inspecting. It's only logical that the governor should inspect a project that was funded by the government. |

The two most senior heads of state are standing on either side of Goodluck Jonathan.
Gowon (1966-1975)
Obasanjo (1976-1979)
That's why Babangida is standing where he is (because he is the most recent, apart from Obasanjo's term as civilian president). |
