Tinubu’s Govt To Commission Lagos-Ibadan Expressway – Fashola

The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, on Tuesday, has said that the incoming administration of Senator Bola Tinubu will commission the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

He stated this during an extraordinary Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the chamber in the State House, Abuja.

The minister added that the planned date for the commissioning is June 30.

“There is a critical section in the four-kilometre last mile to Lagos. It is technical but what has delayed it is that we found black cutting soil under the pavement,” he said.

”We have decided that we will remove it and replace it so that we do a proper job instead of being in a hurry to commission it. That will be deferred to the next administration and the expected completion date is the 30th of June.”
