•Governor inaugurates new Sangotedo market during working visit to council

•Says ‘Lagos set the pace on LGA autonomy’

A rousing reception heralded Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s working visit to Eti-Osa East Local Council Development Area (LCDA) of Lagos State on Wednesday. Mammoth crowd of residents, clad in colourful attires, came to welcome the Governor into their community for assessment of the State Government projects in the council.

During the visit, Sanwo-Olu inaugurated the newly constructed Sangotedo market built by the LCDA. 

Sanwo-Olu, in company of members of the State’s cabinet, arrived into a warm embrace by various indigenous groups that make up the community. Also, there was a large turnout of All Progressives Congress (APC) stalwarts and supporters in Eti Osa.

The Governor, who described Eti-Osa area as “an important economic corridor” of the State, said his visit was to personally take stock of the ongoing Government’s development projects and to get undiluted feedback from the residents on the interventions.

The Sanwo-Olu administration has completed and delivered more than 20 infrastructure projects in road, housing and transportation in the Eti-Osa corridor. Construction work is currently at different stages of completion on numerous other projects on the axis, including Regional Road and Lekki-Epe Expressway.
