Governor Dapo Abiodun Inspects Shagamu-Benin Expressway Damage
Governor Dapo Abiodun made an unscheduled visit to the Shagamu-Benin Expressway to evaluate the damage firsthand. Starting at the interchange of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, he expressed deep concern over the state of the road.
During the inspection, Abiodun stated, “Our purpose here is to personally inspect the situation and understand what has led to the complete breakdown and collapse of this road.”
He highlighted that the road’s failure has resulted in significant hardship for commuters travelling from Lagos to the southeast and south-south zones of Nigeria, as well as for those making their way from these regions to Lagos or other destinations.
The governor pointed out the impact on daily travel, saying, “This situation has created severe inconveniences for many, disrupting their journeys and affecting their livelihoods.”
He reiterated his commitment to addressing the issues facing the road, stating, “This visit underscores our dedication to finding immediate solutions to ease the suffering of commuters.”
Abiodun assured the public that the government is focused on restoring the Shagamu-Benin Expressway to full functionality.
He concluded by affirming, “We will work tirelessly to ensure that this vital road is rehabilitated and that our commuters can travel safely and comfortably.”
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
