Ambode commissions 36km Ile-Zik-Sango street lights

Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, has inaugurated the lighting up of the stretch of Lagos-Abeokuta expressway from Ile Zik to former Toll Gate, Sango Ota and Murtala Mohammed International Airport to Oshodi, just as he said the initiative was part of the promise of  building a 24/7 economy that would create employment and wealth for the people.

Ambode assured that his administration would ensure that no part of the state was left untouched in the Light Up Lagos Initiative.

The Governor recalled the recent connection of 68 communities in Ibeju Lekki to national grid after over five years of being in total darkness, saying that the project was a special programme of his administration designed to achieve all-inclusive governance.

While reiterating that the Light Up Lagos Project was built on a tripod consisting the Light Up Lagos Power Advisory Committee, Community Electrification and the Street Lighting Initiative, Ambode said that the project would provide adequate illumination on strategic highways in keeping with his vision to light up all major roads and border towns in the state.
