The handing over of the reconstruction of the Lagos-Ota-Abeokuta Expressway to the Ogun State Government by the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu-led Federal Government was long in coming.
The highway is one of the most important federal roads in Ogun State. It is a link to the Agbara/Ota industry hub, which harbours the highest number of industries in the country. It is the fastest route to Abeokuta from Lagos, the nation’s economic capital. It also serves as a link to Ibadan in Oyo State and other states in the South West and the North and the South East/South South through Sagamu Interchange in case of any gridlock on the ever busy Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
He said: “I would like to highlight the Lagos-Ota-Abeokuta road. Ota is a city that has earned us the prestigious title of being the industrial capital of Nigeria. It is a city where we share boundaries with Lagos State, and you can hardly tell the difference between Ota and Lagos State. That road, I think the contract must have been awarded maybe in 2012 or 2010 under the administration of President Jonathan. Since then, the contract has been subjected to so many reviews.
“Today, I am pleased to inform you that the Federal Government has entrusted our administration with the reconstruction of the Abeokuta/Sango Ota Tollgate Road.
