The Lagos State Government has finally decided to rehabilitate the Sekumade road linking the Ogolonto intersection with Ipakodo/ TOS Benson Road, this was made known by the Majority leader of Lagos State House of Assembly, Hon. S.O.B Agunbiade.
In a statement made available to black box Nigeria , S.O.B said the road rehabilitation project is now handled by Arab contractors which is to concrete-pave the road.
Please note that the current palliative work on the road is to prepare an alternative lane as a prelude to the actual concrete paving of the other lane, after which the palliated lane will be attended to.
The rehabilitation work will take sometime and the road cannot be shut down to traffic because of its utility nature. Hence the current palliative work on a side of the road to ease vehicular movement, he said.

According to the Deputy Governor in my recent communication with him, there shall be a stakeholders’ meeting soon to brief our people on the project and the collateral cooperation expected of us.
I will continue to plead that we bear with the Sanwoolu/Hamzat administration in the face of our numerous infrastructural needs, the administration is listening, caring and responsive. Our needs shall continue to be attended to one after the other.
Also permit me to commend our patience and endurance in respect of the challenging nature of the Sekumade road all these while. It will only get better.
Let’s continue to pray for the administration of Babajide Sanwoolu /Obafemi Hamzat for more grace while we continue to give our maximum cooperation.
I want to assure you all that all other state roads yet to be attended to are receiving serious attention and shall be listed ultimately like the ones now being attended to.
I thank you for your love and understanding.
My regards always.
