President Bola Tinubu is set to embark on a two-day working visit to Lagos on Wednesday and Thursday, where he will inaugurate six major infrastructure projects completed by the state government.
The development was disclosed in a statement by Gboyega Akosile, Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.
Akosile, in a post on X, said the president would commission “iconic, transformative and legacy projects” executed under the current administration.
“Please join the Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu to welcome President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to a two-day working visit to our dear State. While here, the President will commission some of our iconic, transformative and legacy projects,” he stated.
The projects listed for commissioning include the Ojota-Opebi Link Bridge, the Lagos State Geographic Information Service building in Alausa, the Lagos State Multi-Agency Complex, the Tolu Schools Complex in Ajegunle, the Maracana Stadium, and the Lagos Food Logistics Hub in Abijo.
Also speaking, the Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, explained that the projects are aimed at addressing key infrastructure challenges across the state.
