Fashola, pls open up this part of Lagos-Ibadan Expressway

 

I think the Lagos State Government should pull down the gate erected by Bi Courtney and allow the effective and efficient use of that road.

In 2009, Chief Wale Babalakin’s Bi Courtney Highway Services Limited was made the concessionaire of the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

Although they had not really done anything on the road, they informed motorists that they may collect between N100 and N200 as tolls after they might have finished their job there.

In additional, they fenced off a portion of the road at the Lagos end of the toll gate thus creating a bit of bottleneck while they were still contemplating on which equipment to import for their job.

Unfortunately, the Federal Government kicked them off the contract last year. They moved their equipment from the area but the gate is still there and that portion of the road is still not being used.
