Sanwo-olu revealed this during a campaign rally for Akeredolu in Okitipupa. He said the plan was to link the coastal areas of Ondo State with Lagos by building a bridge to ease traffic in Lagos State.
“The APC government is planning to work on a bridge linking Lagos to Ondo State through the Ilaje area. This will make travellers to spend just 30 minutes or thereabout to get to Lagos,” the Governor said.
He promised that Akeredolu will not fail to fulfil promises made during the election campaign saying the Governor of Ondo State was not a traitor.
“Haven’t you seen our schools? We still have much to do. I know your priority here now and it is electricity. When our government came in, there was no electricity supply but we are lucky that the Executive Director of the Niger Delta Power Holding, Ife Oyedele is from Ikale and he has been doing something on the electricity.” Sanwo-olu told the mammoth crowd.
Lagos State is currently battling with massive infrastructural decay and avoidable accidents that have led to loss of lives through gas and petrol tanker explosions in various parts of the State.
Parts of the state have also been affected by flooding in a larger scale than usual this year.
