These roads, totaling 11 in all, demonstrate Governor Sanwo-Olu’s commitment to enhancing the lives of Lagosians through modern and enduring infrastructure.

The 4.7-kilometer roads to be commissioned on Thursday, January 9, include St. Finbarr’s Road, Asani Street, Tijani Ashogbon Street, Jagunmolu Street, Shogbamu Street, and Diya Street, which run from the University of Lagos Main Gate in Akoka to the Deeper Life Church in Gbagada.

These roads, which measure 6.134 kilometers, include Oba Dosumu Street, Oduduwa Way, Oduduwa Crescent, Sobo Arobiodu Street, and Sasegbon Street.

The improved drainage network in this area will help alleviate the perennial flooding that has plagued the region.
