Few months and weeks ago , Lagos state have witnessed project commissioning by Mr Babajide Sanwo olu , some of the projects duly embarked in his last dispensation before he was re elected.
just concluded Oyinbo bridge brought a lot of accolades and applaud as resident within the Yaba , Oyinbo axis thank the governor for a traffic relief and accessibility provided along the corridor for motorist and train coaches , but a bigger question that generate are ; what’s next after commissioning? How will it be maintained which is paramount, these are questions begging for answers .
One among the numerous projects yet to be commission by governor Babajide Sanwo olu is the popular Ikeja fly over bridge ; a bridge that believe will ease the corridor for both the motorist and blue rail recently commissioned but the reverse is the case as it is a den that attract nightmare .
“the west.ng newspaper embarked on an investigative research to assertain the cry of some resident with the glorify bridge axis at night in which we discovered the heavy night trades , hoodlums hide out and people defecating on the supposed sanwo olu bridge .
Items like pepper , tomatoes, Onion, foot wears , Pos , chemicals , drugs , oranges ,and insecticide were seen laid from the foot to the descending part of the bridge , beggars were not left out as most popular computer village scouters results in defecating on it .
In a media platform , questions were poke to the chief press secretary of Mr Babajide Sanwo olu on when are these bridges due for commissioning , he said
” we are doing our best to resolve and commission all projects including the Ikeja bridge but maybe sooner or later , as rail line will extended to some part of the state ” .
Little will one wonder how long will the menace stop at the glorious talk of the town bridge as it is beginning to get rot from different chemical , waste products and vandals of amenities that have not started working .
Mr Babajide Sanwo olu, and also his commissioner who is incharge of shutting down markets should also beam his light on the environment hazard on our bridges or other infrastructure across the state .
Hence , Mr Babajide Sanwo olu might be awaiting for his god father President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to commission these projects which we envisage will be active for commissioning after much dilapidated remains
