*Ibeju Lekki Opening up to connect to other parts of Nigeria.*
Gov. Akeredolu Records Landmark Achievement, Links Ilaje With Lagos
Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), with the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), to construct a 50 kilometer road to link Ondo State with Lagos. The road is expected to connect Araromi seaside in Ilaje Local Government of Ondo State with *Akodo in Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area of Lagos state.*
This is laudable and remarkable, because in less than 100 days of the of his administration in the State, the Governor can attract such a monumental project to the state."
The first and only MoU ever signed by NDDC with any state government within it's mandate area (the Niger-Delta region). The people of Ilaje and the Niger-Delta areas of the state have rolled out drums to thank Arakunrin Akeredolu and NDDC for this laudable stride. This 50 km road is expected to be completed within two and a half years.
"Once this project is completed, the people in area and it's environs can now travel to Lagos by road in less than an hour, as against the usual 4 - 5 hours spent through other roads to Lagos. The Party therefore assured the people of the State to expect more of such laudable projects during the lifetime of the present Akeredolu's government in the State, the statement reads.
