Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has restated the commitment of his administration to invest in the provision of critical infrastructure as well as delivering link roads to boost the economic prosperity of the state.

Sanwo-Olu, who gave the assurance during the official commissioning of Demurin/Agidi Roads and Church Street in Agboyi-Ketu Local Council Development Area, and Kosofe Local Government Area, charged residents to take ownership of the government’s facilities by ensuring their proper use and safeguarding them against acts of vandalism, indiscriminate dumping of refuse.

Sanwo-Olu, while urging residents to, “work together to preserve the infrastructure for current and future generations, added: “I admonish you all to remain vigilant, report any suspicious activities to the relevant authorities and foster a sense of communal pride in maintaining this road as a symbol of progress and development for our community and for future generations.”

The governor said that the Demurin-Agidi Road is “a project that has significantly enhanced road connectivity, improved traffic flow, reduced travel time, and eliminated perennial flooding issues.”

According to him, “Achievement also underscores our commitment to intermodal transportation, which has positively impacted the health and socio-economic well-being of our people.

“This ceremony marks another milestone in our administration’s delivery of life-changing public infrastructure.

“This aligns with our THEMES+ Agenda, which emphasizes the provision of critical infrastructure to support economic activities. The rehabilitation of Demurin Road, Agidi Road, and Church Street has revitalized socio-economic activities for thousands of residents and business owners.

“As an administration, we remain committed to delivering strategic link roads in line with the State Transport Master Plan and our THEMES+ Agenda.

“The Demurin-Agidi Road not only connects the Ketu area to other parts of the local government but also serves as a vital bypass for traffic heading to the Mile 12 International Commodities Market and the Owode Onirin Auto Parts Market on Ikorodu Road.
