Coalition Against Corrupt Leaders, CACOL, has condemned the snail
speed at which Julius Berger was undertaking repair of dilapidated
Apapa-Oshodi expressway, in Lagos.
The group noted that the construction company was deliberately making
life difficult for road users, by the way it was handling the
construction work.
It also faulted the Federal and Lagos State Governments for
abandoning the road, until it became a source of misery for Lagosians.
Chairman of CACOL, Mr Debo Adeniran, berated Julius Berger for
displaying unseriousness towards the road, which leads to the nation’s
busiest seaport, adding that while the construction company was supposed
to work 24 hours on the road, and mostly at night, as is the practice
in developed societies, it chose to work during the day and when traffic
is heaviest.
Adeniran said, “the unmotorable state of most link roads on
Oshodi/Apapa expressway, made the exit routs difficult from the
expressway, thereby congesting the road with so much vehicles, which
exert too much pressure on the road, resulting in the worn out state of
the expressway.”
