Osinbajo Gives Ambode Permission To Reconstruct Lagos Airport Road

Acting President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has granted the Lagos State Government, permission to reconstruct the Murtala Mohammed International Airport Road from Oshodi which has been in a bad state for some years.

The state government offered to reconstruct the road despite the fact it belongs to the Federal government.

The Secretary to the State Government, Tunji Bello, disclosed the latest development in a statement released today, May 31.

According to the statement, Ambode commends Osinbajo for granting the request of the state government to do the road. He described the action of the acting president as his own 50th birthday gift to the state.

Recall that in March this year, Ambode told the state residents at a function that his administration had the money and design for the reconstruction of the road which had become a national disgrace but that the Federal government was however hesitant in giving the state the approval to reconstruct the road. This had at the time caused a friction between him and his predecessor, Babatunde Fashola, who is the current Minister for Power, Works and Housing.
