Lagos State governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has assured Lagosians and motorists that the current construction of Agege Pen Cinema flyover bridge, will end and be ready for use by July 2020.

Sanwo, who toured the project site on Friday, January 3, 2020 in the company of his Deputy, Obafemi Hamzat and some of his cabinet members added that the bridge has reached 70 percent completion.

He then begged Lagosians to be patient with his government as they make the state better.

His words, “We are pushing the contractors and we have been able to drag a lot of commitments from them. Let’s use the dry season to see how we can complete this bridge. So, they have given us the commitment, and I will be inviting the gentlemen of the press at the end of the second quarter or the beginning of it to commission the flyover, which means it will happen towards end of June or early July 2020. ”

He also begged everyone to be patient with the Lagos government.

He continued, “We are appealing to the residents and motorists of this area to bear with us a little bit more. Just exercise a little bit of patience.”

“As you can see we have been committed to fulfilling our promises. But I have been told that there are some little compensation that the state still owed to those affected by the flyover construction.

“By the grace of God, before we open this bridge, we will pay all the compensation owed.”
