The governor spoke with State House correspondents after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said “From time to time one must also see one’s boss and it is also an honor to have an audience with Mr. President. Today’s visit is essentially just to brief him on the few initiatives that we are planning to do in Lagos and to get his buy-in and his concurrent. He said that he had inspected the road twice since he assumed office, explaining that between this weekend and early next week, discussions with the contractor on the road would end and work would commence in earnest.
He said that what he did was to promise that his government would carry out a review of previous activities on the road within 60 days. He also said that the reconstruction of Oshodi-Apapa road has commenced even though it was yet to attain the level where it can be noticed.The Governor said that the reform currently being carried out by the Nigeria Ports Authority and stakeholders on the road involves an innovation termed “call-up,” which he described as a device prohibiting tanker drivers from leaving their parks, until they are called up.
