The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Friday, opened the newly-upgraded Oba Sekumade Road in the Ikorodu area of the state to motorists.
This was disclosed by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Gboyega Akosile, in a statement on Friday.
According to Akosile, the infrastructure would provide easy access to residential and industrial areas in Ibeshe, Igbogbo-Baiyeku, Ebute Ipakodo, Ikorodu town and Ipakodo Mega Jetty Terminal.
The governor also rehabilitated the failed sections of T.O.S. Benson Road, covering a stretch of 500 metres.
To ease vehicular congestion on the T.O.S Benson Road, a comprehensive junction improvement project was carried out by the government to diffuse traffic towards Ikorodu Roundabout.
The road was the first major infrastructure project to be inaugurated by Sanwo-Olu after he won his re-election two weeks ago.
The governor described the commissioning as a ‘thank you’ gift for the electorate in the Ikorodu division for turning out the second largest votes that made his party, the All Progressives Congress, win the last gubernatorial election.
