This is commendable for the Sanwo Olu administration! Nlfpmod

This is indeed beautiful. More of this from other Governors

Started by what government? Don't tell us half tales. Give little background.

Modified: Y'all don't understand my question at all.

The post said completed by Sanwo Olu. If they won't mention when the project started why say completed by?

Good one opening that end to commuters.

I remember while working at Opebi-Adebola house, if you’re going to Maryland from GTB Opebi, your Bus would have to pass the bridge behind Sheraton and go and turn at Oasis after EKO Hospital and trust me there will be enough holdup coming from Ikeja to delay your trip, but with the opening of this route, it’s just a breeze to get to Maryland in less than 5 minutes.

Nice one sanwo Olu more projects ooo abeg let’s focus on other means of transportation!

Lovely sight to behold. I love and appreciate good things when I see them. Good one from sanwo olu.

He should concentrate on compensating people that he destroyed their homes in different areas in Lagos. We will appreciate him more

This is going to cut a lot of traffic for many people in that axis

Welldone sanw eko ..and to the person wey start am..
If you wan look for story go and open Encyclopedia

This is massive and so beautiful to behold. Well done to the initiator and the person who completed it.

Na bridge be this. Dual for that matter


No be one yeye wey go do truckless flyover for centre of Mokola in 2012. When they will talk,them go say "there is also a truckless flyover in Ikeja"

Ask them when was that constructed. Over 40years ago. Now in 2012 someone now decides to build truckless flyover. Today,the flyover has done little or nothing to solve traffic around that axis.

I guess Sanwo Olu too should have built a truckless flyover

Shior

Kudos. Welcome development

This is fantastically fantastic

Peter Obi supporters will start crying.

This is Lagos state government project. In Lagos, they don’t do started by this and that.

Not like Otti whose supporters usually claim private project or FG project as their own?

Ojota to Opebi straight!


No more through Maryland or Ikeja.





Good one from Lagos state government.

We are in the era of the bridges.

This should make a significant impact on traffic management around Maryland, Opebi, Allen, Ojota all the way though Ikosi-Ketu to Ikorodu.

Good one!

Hope work on the VGC Bridge to Freedom Way will resume soon and be completed before the end of the governor's tenure.

Do you also want other governors to prioritise roads over the provision of water to all buildings?

Should we all continue to drink detty, shitty, disgraceful, smelling water in the cities and towns of the 36 states and FCT

Water Scarcity Hits Maitama, Embassies Affected

Tue, 25 Feb 2025

A severe water scarcity has hit the downtown area of Maitama District in the Federal Capital City over the last two weeks, Abuja Metro reports.

Many parts of the affluent neighbourhood have been struggling with lack of pipe-borne water as the Federal Capital Territory Water Board supply has been off.

Where is the "Tinubu has finished Lagos" crew?

How many pictures of this can be used to pay school fees for children in private schools, because progreThief Sanwo Olu and his three predecessors steal money that should employ well paid teachers for the free education of all children

Babasessy:
The Awolowo rebirth in the Southwest has inspired gongs, songs and rhetoric of sorts. But they have missed one point.

It occurred to me in Abeokuta last week amidst the big crowds and euphoria of the swearing-in of Senator Ibikunle Amosun as governor. In all the states from Lagos to Edo, where Awo has witnessed ideological resurgence, hardly a single family member has played a role.

So we have an Awo family without an Awo. That is an irony. But history overwhelms us with this sort of twist. Obafemi Awolowo toiled for his reputation. His roots were lowly, he toiled to school both home and abroad, launched into careers in law, business, journalism and eventually politics. He carved a niche for himself, and became the first methodical and charismatic leftist in our history.  Other leftists abounded but they did not inspire comparable drama and following.

He faced tribulations, went to jail, failed in elections, won a few, but he imprinted his ideas and legacy in the country, and no single mortal has beaten him in the history of this country. His greatest achievement was in the area of ideas, and that was how he fashioned a family. Most families are born of biology but his issued from ideology. That family suffered with him.

In a spoof of Jesus Christ, these were the men who followed him in his teachings, and endured with him in his temptations. So he formed a kingdom for them in the Southwest, in the old Western Region, presiding over his projects, his legacies and people.

In all of these, the family he had was not his flesh and blood. In another spoof of Christ, who were his family anyway? Those who were with him must be counted as his family. So, I combed in the ambience of Babatunde Raji Fashola (SAN), and I found none. I went to Ogun, I frisked the crowd under Amosun’s bower, hardly any. Around Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola in Osun, I could not lay a finger. With Governor Kayode Fayemi in Ekiti, where are the forbears of Awo? Yet, I can hear the chants of Awo. Hardly in any of the inaugural speeches or any of their other public intervention would you miss the philtre and filter of Awo from these gentlemen. To parody Novelist Joseph Conrad, they are the sparks from Awo’s sacred fire, the messengers of the might within the man.

Already all of them are pursuing the legacy ideas of Awo: free education, free health services, infrastructural development, urban renewal and economic engineering.

Lagos has posted itself as the John the Baptist. The others are putting up valiant efforts, and the world of course is watching to see how well they will perform. It will call for great work, resourcefulness and cooperation. They are the real Awoists, and Awo was a man of rigour and vigour.

The Awo son that many expected to take after the father was Olusegun, who unfortunately died in a car crash. We shall never know if he could have pulled it off.  But the others have not shown much of the paterfamilias’ brio and depth. In the past decade, under this republic, they have blended with the wrong crowd. Even H.I.D, hobnobbed with Alao-Akala, who brought illiteracy to governance; with Oyinlola who turned the grace of office into a hell-hole of despots; with Daniel who could not arrest his quick fall into megalomania.

I wrote once that this woman whom Awo once described as the jewel of inestimable value has lost value to his cause. If he came back to life, he would have committed the extraordinary act of divorce after death. Even his newspaper, The Tribune, has so stumbled and fallen that it swims in Awo’s vomit.

Ask abi state government that bought two Hilux with 1.5B Naira

From my physical observation, that bridge shows the clear difference between a Julius Berger (German) contstruction work and the Chinese firm's construction works.

The precision to details, procedure and safety standards in always the difference.

When it comes to work... Give it to babajide sanwo olu... He's good
