Given the importance of the Lagos-Abeokuta Highway to the residents of Ogun State and the rest of the nation, the National Association of Ogun State Students (NAOSS) has advocated for its swift repair.
Emmanuel Ogunrombi, the national president of NAOSS, made the appeal in a statement on Friday in Abuja while praising Governor Dapo Abiodun for taking up the project’s rebuilding.
“We applaud Governor Abiodun’s decisive action to address the deplorable state of this critical transport link to other parts of the country. This signifies his unwavering commitment to the welfare of the citizens of Ogun State.
“This comes as a beacon of hope for those who have endured the daily challenges imposed by the road’s poor condition. The completion of the Lagos/Abeokuta Expressway/Olomore-Brewery Road will bring about a multitude of positive impacts to the people of the state and the country at large.
“Beyond the immediate relief for commuters, this infrastructure upgrade promises to stimulate economic growth by enabling the seamless movement of goods and people between Lagos and Abeokuta. Additionally, the improved road conditions will lead to enhanced road safety, sparing countless lives from unnecessary risk,” NAOSS said.
