Babajide Sanwo-Olu



Babajide Sanwo-Olu was sworn in as the Governor of Lagos State on Wednesday, May 29, 2019.

He expressed enormous enthusiasm in confronting the traffic challenge in the state.

On June 3, 2019,  Sanwo-Olu donated 35 brand new high-capacity shuttle buses to the Lagos State Civil Service.

On October 2019, just like Ambode, Governor Sanwo-Olu acquired over 800 new buses.

In a series of tweet, the governor declared, "Beyond road construction, we have started expanding the bus rapid transit system and gradually reducing the danfo buses on the roads. I am excited to announce that we have purchased over 800 buses to add to the existing BRT fleet expanding to more routes. We are supportive of private investment in transportation that is non-exploitative".

BRT Vs. Non-BRT

The 800 buses bought by Governor Sanwo-Olu are intended for BRT operations. This is unlike the over 800 buses bought by Ambode. The cost of acquiring the buses is yet to become public knowledge.

The acquisition and donation of the buses to a private transport company by the Sanwo-Olu have come under criticism.

Some analysts wondered why the Governor, who claims he met an empty treasury, embarked on such charity.

They also queried the sense in donating the buses to a private company when they could have been donated to the State government-operated Lagos Bus Services Limited (LBSL).

The donation of the buses came 2 weeks after Governor Sanwo-Olu sent a letter to the state Assembly to get approval for a fixed rate bond of N100 billion from the capital market and an internal loan of N150 billion.

Babajide Sanwo-Olu is the 15th Governor of Lagos State.

EXTRA TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD

Lagos road network is like a person suffering from narrowed arteries. For smoother flow of traffic we need to start by expanding every single road/street and clearing off street traders. Introduce sidewalks with land scaping and bring order and sanity to transport. The we can have bus stops and separated shoulders for the BRTS. These are just a start.

In 2019 visionless government are still thinking of more buses in Lagos without planning how to tackle traffic congestion.

Yellow buses are gradually fading away on highways. For example,third mainland bridge.

Everybody inside Lagos is Tibubu's nephew, cousin and relative.
