Ogun, Lagos to toll Lagos-Abeokuta expressway
Ogun and Lagos States have requested for the handover of the Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta expressway for reconstruction, rehabilitation and management.Abiodun disclosed he and Governor Jide Sanwo – Olu had put the request in writing, which he personally presented to Buhari few weeks ago.
He said the planned joint takeover of the Lagos – Sango Ota – Abeokuta was part of his strategies to develop infrastructure in Ogun. Abiodun lamented that the last contract for the Lagos – Sango Ota – Abeokuta expressway was awarded and signed in 2001 with about N26bn debt still hanging on it. “We all know that the Lagos-Ibadan expressway is ongoing and the truth is that the road won’t be completed until December of next year.“However, as a government, we have done a lot of road count and have come with the fact that if that road is completed, it does not have the capacity to transport the population of people that pass through that corridor.
