, last year, road users in Lagos heaved a sigh of relief, hoping the road would see completion earlier than the November 2020 deadline.

During the inspection, Fashola assured members of the press that the government was dedicated to the speedy completion of the highway to ease the problems of bad roads and gridlock on the axis.

They have blocked many of the adjourning roads from Ilasa to Five Star, Matori, Ladipo and Toyota.Another commuter, Ruth Samuel told The Guardian that the situation has forced her to always trek long distances.
