The Lagos-Badagry Expressway needs urgent attention
On
RECENTLY, the Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, was in Badagry to commission some projects.
First, we cannot help but wonder how the governor possibly got to Badagry by road. Did he fly over the gullies and ditches which have for many years become metaphors for the Lagos-Badagry Express Road? And if the governor was actually in Badagry and drove through the unbelievably decrepit road, we would like to ask how he felt about that road.
The governor, no doubt, must have been shocked at the condition of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, especially between Agbara and Badagry Town.
