Governor Akinwunmi Ambode
By Naomi Uzor
The All Progressives Congress (APC) Lagos gubernatorial candidate, Mr., Akinwunmi
, yesterday said, the Apapa traffic gridlock was a fall out of the inefficiency of the PDP led government.
Speaking at the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, LCCI, private sector interactive forum with some governorship candidates in Lagos, Ambode said.
“Of all the roads that we have in Lagos, 117 of those roads are federal government roads and Apapa express is one of them, there is nothing that APC government has not done to allow businesses thrive in that axis, each time we even try to relocate the traffic congestion of these tankers and trailers, we always have a bottleneck and frustration from the federal government, beyond what you see”
“We have expanded to ensure that we have additional seaports in Badagry and Lekki, to easing out the kind of challenges we face in Apapa area, beyond that, we believe strongly also, that there are additional infrastructure that are being used as alternative to allow businesses to expand in that axis” he stated.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Lagos Gubernatorial candidate, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, while reacting to the accusation laid on the PDP led government said, if we want to move forward as a country, we mustn’t begin to look at the economy of Nigeria as a big brother; we must begin to look at the Nigeria economy as a partner, rather than waiting for the federal government to do everything in Lagos.
