Lekki –Epe Expressway toll-free?

According to Punch , governor Akinwunmi Ambode says residents of the state who live in the Lekki axis will no longer pay tolls at the second toll point on the Lekki- Epe Expressway.

The governor, in the statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Habib Aruna, said his concern was ensuring the completion of the road.

He said,

“We must start thinking of the future concerning that road. We said we will have an International Airport in Epe, and an Export Processing Zone in Lekki and a Deep Seaport also in Lekki. Should we not start thinking about how we will improve and create a 10-lane road between Ikorodu, Itoikin, Epe and Ijebu Ode so that people can go out from there? There is no point constructing the road, paying tolls and in five years’ time, the road is gone.”

The governor said once the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, which was being expanded into 10-lane, was completed, the community would be opened up for business activities. He added that his administration would make careful efforts to grow the tourism potential of the state.

“As more means of transportation come on board, the more than 600,000 private car owners and 120,000 motorcycles that are being put on the road in the state on a daily basis will reduce in number.” He said his administration had decided to scale up governance by rearranging the civil service through the realignment of some ministries and agencies, while creating a new Ministry of Wealth Creation and Employment.


Ambode said, “We have said this is a government of continuity, but it is continuity with improvement. It is about making life easier for the people. We are receptive to new ideas and that is why we are going to be creative, innovative and thinking out of the box.”

Lagos Flood-The irony of living in the so called good environment

I don’t normally do this but this is something that should be looked into fast……sometimes when it rains in Victoria Garden City,the water dries off within 3to 4hours,apart from the last catastrophe few years back we had that people lost their lives, leakagesin homes in some part of Lagos.In VGC the flood  took one month to dry off completely especially at the exit entrance,the heavy traffic it caused, left many cars damaged,even jeeps broke down.

There was a promise that they will resolve these issues,but from the looks of things we are back to square one...

What triggered everything this morning was when I had gotten ready for church service, I got an alert from 

VGC maintenance department on my phone stating flooding areas are high…..unbelievable……as I took 3mins drive to see if there was a way I could get out of the estate and make my way to church…unfortunately I met this photo above

Then I went online to see what the rest of Lagos was
