Gov. Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos State on Wednesday directed the contactor handling the seven-kilometre Ipaja-Ayobo Road in Alimosho Local Government Area of the state to complete the project within the next three months. Ambode gave the directive during an inspection of some road construction projects in the State.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the administration of former Gov. Babatunde Fashola awarded contract for the reconstruction of the dual-carriage road in May 2011, initially billed to last for 18 months.
Ambode said he decided to inspect the project in order to quickly mobilise the contractor to expedite action so that the project could be completed on time. According to him, the completion is key to unlocking socio-economic opportunities in the area.
“We have directed the contractor of the project to work day and night and ensure that the project is completed within the next three months.
“In the main time, they will provide palliatives to ease the stress experienced by residents and I plead that you give that maximum cooperation to achieve this.
“Alimosho deserves more than this road because you are the greater part of the state. We will work toward providing a fire station and water works in Alimosho”, he said.
