Governor Fashola Vs Ejigbo LCDA Neglect! (Opinion By Kunle Ogunfuyi)

Ejigbo LCDA

 

 Since I cannot afford an airtime on LTV or AIT, I am using this platform to seek the government attention to the decay of governance in Ejigbo LCDA.

 I was at Governor Babatunde Fashola campaign tour to Ejigbo during last pre-election and the promises thereafter. I am yet to see active fulfilment on them compare to that of Surulere, Ajah, Lekki and Apapa. I believe the governor remember how bad the road was during his campaign tour? The road is worst now. Ejigbo/Isheri records the slowest speed in development across board despite media effort to draw the government to his commitment of equal development.

 Let me be fair to the government, the skeletal constructions in Ejigbo/Ishere are carried out by retired bricklayers (I will show prove) without time frame. The Isheri bridge linking Jakande estate has been on going for over two years (charge me if I am not saying the truth) by Hi-tech. No construction timeframe to carry the people along. Iyana Ejigbo road is a dead trap with containers fallen off trucks like everyday. Another way for LASMAN is generating revenue.

 As I write this note, Aliegun road, a major road that could easy off traffic gridlock of the Isolo-Ejigbo road is undergoing “construction” left in the hands of retired local bricklayers called contractors. This is another waste of public fund.

 My dear Governor, please when coming for the January bomb blast victim’s remembrance day at Oke -Afa, kindly make a tour again and see for yourself.

 The Oke-Afa/Egbe bridge expansion is long over due. It was there before you came in as governor. Show mercy our governor.

 We cannot remain like this. We are all stakeholders in this Lagos project.
