This is very commendable. This road was one of the reasons I felt really bad about Governor Jide Sanwo-Olu. It is such a critical corridor, yet it was left in a deplorable state for so long. That was one of my major disappointments with his administration. No matter what happened,even with the #EndSARS protests or any other crisis,the government should not have allowed such an important road to deteriorate to that extent. That said, I am happy today that the road is finally being rehabilitated, even though it took about five years. This is exactly what Nigerians want: a good, clean, and well-maintained environment. Nigerians don’t need too much. We are actually very easy to impress. You don’t have to overdo things,just do the basics well, and the average Nigerian will sing your praises to the high heavens. This level of infrastructure maintenance used to be the standard of the APC in Lagos before Governor Jide’s administration. In my opinion, this has been the laziest government Lagos has had. This is not meant to throw shade; it is simply my personal opinion. However, I must commend the administration for being responsive. When they are criticized, they tend to act quickly to fix issues, and that is a good thing. Still, much more is needed. This road must be rehabilitated to the highest possible standard. It should be beautiful and visually pleasing. It is a critical transport corridor, an industrial corridor, and a major transportation route. In fact, it is almost the lifeline of Lagos. It is also a tourist corridor, as about 90% of tourists who come to Lagos pass through this route to reach different destinations. I want to place special emphasis on Ikate. Kunsela Road should be completely demolished and rebuilt with proper drainage systems on both sides, so that rainwater can flow freely. The same applies to the area around Iyare Motors. That section of the road also needs urgent attention. It should be demolished and reconstructed properly to allow effective water flow. Honestly, I would advise this administration to suspend every other thing and focus on environmental management. Lagos already has everything it needs,from its people to its businesses. Every Lagosian is a hustler. They don’t need much; just give them an enabling environment and watch them take this city to the world and back. Lagosians are among the most inspiring Nigerians on earth. That is not news; it is a fact. The government should simply ensure that the environment is clean, roads are in good condition, and transportation works efficiently. Lagos does not need to beg for investors or engage in unnecessary publicity. By maintaining a clean environment and good infrastructure, Lagos will attract many times more investment than it already does. So, kudos to Governor Jide on this effort. I wish him the very best. As I have said before, I will be the first person to publicly acknowledge and post his achievements, as long as he genuinely tackles environmental issues. Once the environment is properly fixed and Lagos becomes clean again before the end of his tenure, I will personally sing the praises of this administration to the high heavens. I am not hiding that. But as long as the environment is not in good condition, I will also speak up. God bless us all. 📹: Ongoing Rehabilitation of the Lekki-Epe Expressway,Lagos 🇳🇬

Yesterday, at the Senate plenary, I voted NO to the proviso that has the capacity of whittling down the mandatory electronic transmission of election results from the polling units in Form EC8A. As I have explained severally, this proviso adds nothing to the law but has the capacity to be misused, misunderstood, and used to undermine electoral integrity and transparency. My view is that INEC has already explained that it has the capacity to transmit election results in over 90% of polling units. Therefore, I feel it is the duty of INEC, once we make it mandatory, to come up with guidelines and regulations that will stipulate strict conditions for the few cases where presiding officers may not be able to transmit electronically as a result of communication failure; and these, from the last INEC report, cannot be more than 7%. My view, therefore, is that we should leave it for INEC to handle through its regulations and guidelines. The law should only make provision for mandatory electronic transmission, which we have done, and we should stop there. Hence, I voted yesterday, galvanised opinions, and also joined in voting NO to the inclusion of the proviso. Unfortunately, as I have said, the majority is determined to utilise its numbers, and they did so effectively. In a democracy, the majority has its way, but the minority will have its say. I believe that the majority should be used for the national good and not otherwise. It is now left for INEC to stipulate strict conditions for the admission of election results not transmitted electronically. It is also for the courts to bear in mind the general good when interpreting this section to promote electoral integrity and transparency. As I have said, the citizens must not give up. They should organise and support candidates and parties that promote and respect democratic norms, and organise and mobilise against candidates and parties that do otherwise. We wish Nigeria well. —HSD.
