The Lagos State Government has urged residents to cooperate with the state as it begins construction of Egan- Akesan Road in Alimosho Local Government Area.
A statement said while speaking at a stakeholders meeting at Ikeja, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, Oluwole Sotire, said the project was significant for a liveable and sustainable environment, especially for the people of Egan-Akesan.
He said Lagos State, in line with the ‘THEMES Agenda’, was making a remarkable success in the area of infrastructure renewal, as evident in the construction of roads across the state. While calling for cooperation, he stated that the successful execution of the project would provide the required succour to residents by enhancing connectivity and easing traffic as well as enhancing the value of property in the area.
Sotire emphasised that the establishment of the right of way, which was a condition precedent to the execution of all public projects, followed a certain process, including the service of statutory notices and marking of affected buildings before the actual removal of encumbering structures to pave the way for the impending development in the public interest.
