Breaking: Newly Commissioned Agege Bridge Badly Flooded After Rainfall (Photos)

Photos have surfaced on social media showing how the newly commissioned 1.4km Dual Carriageway Flyover Bridge in Pen Cinema Junction, Agege is now badly flooded.

CityNews Nigeria reports that the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, had on March 5 officially commissioned the bridge as part of efforts by the state government to reduce the gridlock and improve the traffic situation on that axis.

During the commissioning of the project, Sanwo-Olu said that the flyover would reduce travel time and save man-hour that would have been otherwise lost to traffic on the road.

The Governor said it would provide a better riding surface, leading to reduced maintenance cost; boost interconnectivity and generally make life more meaningful to commuters in the state.
