Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway.
If you can drive through this road then you and your car are legends. It has been abandoned since the tenure of PDP's Pa Obasanjo. President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu will fix it.
But why couldn't OBJ do that road, I'm still wondering. His farm and University are there at Ota.

Well its good to hear the road will be finally attended to.

maybe you are not familiar with that area.



the idiroko road that is being expanded is off the Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway which is presently unmotorable.

what is the wisdom in not fixing the bad Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway and going to expand idiroko road that is still motorable?


I’m sure they will fix it but it will gulp more money than the Idiroko road. Lagos-Ota-Abeokuta axis need proper work with state of the art drainage system, so I wouldn’t want it shabbily done with patched works. Also, some houses near the road that might hamper its development might have to go, and you want them notified in advance and duly compensated.

President Tinubu will fix the Lagos-Ota-Abeokuta axis before the election to show former President Obasanjo how it’s done. lol.

Don’t worry.

Which presidency he is pushing. Give the kudos to Tinubu for awarding the road. You people can twist things.

Those that never looted from 1999 did it now why must Gbajue do it again.

Oluwaseun.

Remember Atan-Ado-Odo road too, repairing that ancient road will help reduce food and produce price as farmers in that corridor will surely be able to reach Lusada, Oja Ota with their produce on time, making available foodstuff and agro-allied products in the market just as you have it at Oke-Odo and Ketu.

Let the government open up this part of the country and others like it to cushion the effect of inflation going on around Lagos and its environs, as well as other places in Nigeria.

God bless.
That road belongs to Ogun State govt and not federal.

The road been expanded is Idiroko road leading to Canaanland winners chapel. It's a different road entirely from Lagos Abeokuta Expressway.

was it not obasanjo that reconstructed the road in a bid to add a flyover? how did obasanjo abandon what he built?

meanwhile
The PUNCH reports that the National Association of Ogun State Students on Monday appealed to the Federal Government to take urgent steps towards reconstructing the completely collapsed Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway.

the road is presently in a state of disrepair but the report says tinubu is expanding idiroko road and the major road that leads to idiroko road is bad.

what is the wisdom in that?
Ota-Idiroko road is quietly different from Lagos Abeokuta express. The one they want to expand is Ota-Idiroko road and it's awarded thru tax credit

Better, long overdue.

They should put Lagos Abeokuta Expressway into the equation as well.

Federal Govt - should as a matter of Urgency and MUST get the abandoned Lagos- Abeokuta Express Roads Constructed and be functional,for it has been abandoned since ages now.
We wander why OBJ could not do any Infrastructures in his South-West,due to politics - as they refused to vote his PDP then . But see life now!

People make the assertion that Obasanjo abandon that road ignorantly, I don't blame them, most Nigerians are mentally lazy to independently verify information. What was the state of the road before OBJ, and what was it after he left?

As of 2001, dualization of that road that from Ile zik terminates at Sango Ota with wide median in the middle of the road from Abule Egba to sango. from Sango to Abeokuta was a single lane.

OBJ admin completed the dualization from Sango Ota to Abeokuta. After which he commence expansion of the existing dual carriage. In 2002 they started with the Airport interchange - Ikeja along - Ile zik axis. By 2005, when the main contract for the dualization of Ota - Abeokuta was completed, an addendum was added for the expansion of the road from Ile zik to Sango ota, with an overhead bridge.

where in my comment that you responded to did you see anything suggesting that Idiroko road and Lagos/Abeokuta are the same?

pls read again and try to understand.

By the time President Tinubu is done with his 8yrs, many won’t recognize Nigeria again says Senator Akpabio

Will it or will it not? Time will tell

Yes sir, I strongly believed him. The strategy underground is too sophisticated for prosperity. Unfortunately the process will never be in the public until it gets to advanced stage and comes out first as a rumor then next implementation. This is to avoid unnecessary politics and ethnicity. Yes some people will not like it but that is it.
Once he finishes with the Local government autonomy, he will pump Money massively to the Local government with targets of projects to be implemented because Asiwaju believes in grassroot/ polling units development. He created the structure in APC from federal level to Polling Unit level and he was the National Leader of the structure in APC ( the position he will return to after 8 years by Gods grace). Then, It will be operation check you chairman performances. There will be heavy competition for good records amongst the 774 chairmen( so as to proceed to house or national assembly) Then 1960 constitution will be closer to implementation. Check Lagos format of 1999 till date in strategic implementation of progressive master plan. LG/LCDA/CDA was created by Tinubu to getting dividends to the people up to the polling units level. Reasons the guy will continue to win elections.Just watch!. But why are other parties not having a good strategy like Asiwaju?. Akpabio has seen the templates reason he was the Senate president and Abass as speaker. Asiwaju na master jare!!

I was there this evening. It's really serious. I hope the plan is good. Ojuore market is gone. Those men and women just feel helpless. I hope there's a plan for a good market for them. Whatever they want to do needs to be done fast. I pray it works out well
