A quick update on the ocean wave barrier being installed around KM 13-15 of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway a critical coastal protection system designed to shield the new road from Atlantic Ocean encroachment and powerful wave action. By reinforcing the shoreline with specialized materials and wave-breaking structures, engineers are safeguarding the highway’s foundation from erosion and flooding, helping ensure long-term stability and resilience against rising tides and coastal threats. This protection enhances the durability of the highway, preserves investment value, and supports safe, uninterrupted connectivity along Nigeria’s eastern coastal corridor.

Many people don’t know this, but before construction of the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway began, a new Makoko-like settlement had already started forming along that corridor. The highway construction cleared that entire stretch, opening it up to what is now a beachfront. Some of the people still left are the ones seen around the coastal highway at night. If enforcement is not sustained, there’s a real risk of regrouping and the emergence of another informal settlement. The entire stretch now protected by shoreline works behind Orchid Road was once their settlement, as shown in the first video.

We have begun clearing the illegal shanties and market stalls built along the median of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway. As we rebuild the Lagos-Badagry Expressway into a modern 10-lane highway, we cannot allow its median to become a market, a settlement or a site for illegal structures. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to trade, build makeshift shops or live on the median of a major highway. It is unsafe, illegal and unacceptable. We often compare Lagos with some of the world’s leading cities and ask why we cannot be like them. The truth is that those cities work because people respect public infrastructure and obey the rules. We cannot expect a world-class city while refusing to show the discipline needed to keep one. Dumping waste indiscriminately or building illegal structures along our highways will not move us forward. If we want a cleaner, safer and more organised Lagos, discipline and personal responsibility must become part of our everyday culture. That is how we build a city we can all be proud of.

The operation commenced as scheduled and focused on clearing all illegal structures and dislodging unauthorised occupants from the affected corridor. Enforcement personnel maintained order throughout the exercise while ensuring that the median was restored for its intended public use and that the right-of-way was protected. The exercise was jointly undertaken by officials of the the Lagos State Environmental Task Force, Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI), the Rapid Response Squad (RRS), and Lagos Waste Management Authority (LAWMA).

In the company of the Special Adviser on the Environment, Engr. Kunle Akodu Kunle Rotimi-Akodu; the Permanent Secretary, Office of Drainage Services, Engr. Mahmoud Adegbite Olakunle Adegbite ; the Permanent Secretary, Office of Environmental Services, Dr. Gaji Omobolaji Tajudeen; Lagos State Taskforce Chairman, CSP Adebayo Akerele; Managing Director LAWMA Dr Muyiwa Gbadegesin, PhD and other Directors from the Ministry, I inspected the ongoing removal of illegal structures along the Lagos–Okokomaiko–Badagry Expressway. The exercise is being carried out by operatives of the Lagos State Environmental Taskforce, the Lagos State Environmental Sanitation Corps (LAGESC), LAWMA, and other relevant stakeholders. The expansive road median was deliberately constructed by the Lagos State Government to accommodate the Lagos Rail Mass Transit project. As a major gateway into Nigeria from other West African countries, this corridor is of significant economic and strategic importance and reflects the image of our state. It is therefore unacceptable for such critical public infrastructure, built with taxpayers’ resources, to be occupied by illegal traders and other unauthorised occupants. We want to assure Lagosians that the State Government will sustain regular monitoring and enforcement along this corridor. A permanent patrol team will be deployed to ensure that illegal occupants do not return, while preserving the integrity and intended purpose of this vital infrastructure. #ZeroToleranceLagos

🔥🔥🔥Ogun State axis of the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway. I love Bola Ahmed Tinubu, but for years one thing truly pained me: the fencing off of Bar Beach and its conversion into Eko Atlantic. Bar Beach gave me some of my best childhood memories. Growing up, I felt a constant pull to the ocean , often alone. I went there in moments of great happiness and in seasons of deep despondency. The ad infinitum nature of the sea stirred in me an early sense of the Almighty. You can imagine my disappointment when that access was taken away. What I didn’t know then was that his vision was set on something bigger, something better. Today, that vision is unfolding as the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway: a stretch of road that will shorten interstate travel and become a joy to behold. This road isn’t just infrastructure; it’s an invitation to experience a larger slice of Nigeria in sweeter doses, long coastal views, open horizons, and the chance to relive childhood memories. History will be kind to Bola Ahmed Tinubu. When Nigeria’s economic, financial, and tourism renaissance is told, his name will stand out as the man who dared to think far ahead. #KemKem

When the Federal Government of Nigeria commissioned parts of the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway particularly Section One it did not commission the entire stretch. Section One spans about 47.7 kilometres, but only completed portions were opened at the time, while other segments were still in early construction stages due to swampy terrain, soil stabilization, and ongoing sandfilling works. Today, most of Section One has been fully covered, and pavement works have commenced, gradually transforming it into a continuous corridor from Victoria Island to the Lekki Free Trade Zone. This project is steadily taking shape. I’ll be sharing a comprehensive update soon, showing what’s happening across the previously disjointed sections. Stay tuned for the full breakdown. #lagoscalabarcoastalhighway

FLASH: President, Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR today commissioned (virtually) the mid level Lagos State Fresh food Hub, Abijo, Lekki-Epe Expressway. Mr President was ably represented by the President of the Senate and Chairman of the National Assembly, Senator Godswill Akpabio Godswill Obot Akpabio, GCON The Lagos State Fresh Food Hub—Abijo sits on a 23,000 sqm land with adequate parking facilities, cold and dry storage facilities, expansive trading floors for vendors and beautiful environment for a better shopping experience for consumers. This food hub aims to bring fresh, affordable produce to communities along the Lekki‑Epe corridor, helping to decentralize food access beyond traditional urban centers. The first of its kind was built in Idi-oro Mushin which is fully functional and well patronised, others are also currently being built in Pen Cinema Agege, Bombata; Lagos Island, Oregun Ikeja, Ikorodu and others. This initiative fits into the Lagos Agricultural Roadmap launched in 2021 by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, which aims to make Lagos self-sustainable and achieve food security. In the Long term, these food hubs will receive a ready and steady supply of farm produce directly from the ongoing massive Lagos Food logistics in Ketu Ereyun, Epe. #LagosFoodHub #ProduceForLagos #LagosFoodSecurity #PBATInLagos #GreaterLagosRising

‼️Peculiar structures along the Netzarim axis road reveal a harsh reality. Hand-dug holes made by Palestinians who used them as cover while waiting for aid trucks to arrive. As Israeli occupation tanks opened fire from nearby hills, these men dug into the ground to shield themselves while trying to secure cans of food and flour for their families. Many were killed where they stood, their makeshift shelters now silent witnesses to the desperation and hunger that forced them to risk their lives for a single meal. Shame on the entire world for ever allowing this to happen. moathlamoure (IG)

Nigeria Set to Build Africa’s First Underwater Tunnel President Bola Ahmed Tinubu continues to redefine Nigeria’s infrastructure landscape with another bold and historic initiative, the construction of Africa’s first underwater tunnel. This groundbreaking project, announced by the Federal Ministry of Works under Engr. David Umahi will connect Ahmadu Bello Way on Victoria Island through Snake Island to the Badagry corridor. The tunnel, estimated at 2.9 to 3.5 kilometres in length, represents a major leap in engineering innovation and urban connectivity, a feat never before attempted on the continent. The proposed tunnel is more than a piece of infrastructure; it is a symbol of President Tinubu’s unwavering commitment to modernization and national transformation. Just as he turned Lagos into West Africa’s economic hub during his time as governor, PBAT is now extending that same visionary leadership to the entire nation. By linking the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway with the Sokoto–Badagry Superhighway, this project will not only ease transportation but also connect northern and southern Nigeria in ways that will supercharge trade, tourism, and industrial growth. This initiative perfectly aligns with the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda, a roadmap for prosperity anchored on innovation, infrastructure, and inclusive economic growth. With this project, PBAT is proving that Nigeria can dream big and execute world-class developments. The tunnel will decongest Lagos traffic, boost marine and logistics efficiency, and improve access to key economic zones like the Lekki Deep Sea Port, Snake Island, and the Badagry Free Trade Area. Each of these nodes will drive investment, create jobs, and position Nigeria as a leading player in Africa’s blue economy. Critics often talk, but PBAT acts. While others debate or recycle slogans, this administration is turning ambitious ideas into tangible realities from roads, rails, ports, and now, an underwater tunnel. It’s a clear testament that leadership is not about noise but about results. This project stands as another reminder that under PBAT, Nigeria is no longer waiting for the world to bring development; Nigeria is building it with its own hands, technology, and courage. In every sense, the proposed underwater tunnel is a legacy in motion, one that will outlive this administration and transform Nigeria’s infrastructural identity. From Lagos to Badagry, from north to south, President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope is no longer a slogan; it’s a visible revolution taking shape under the ground and across the nation. With bold projects like this, PBAT is not just connecting roads, he’s connecting dreams, people, and the promise of a stronger, more united Nigeria.

One thing I really appreciate about the Lagos State Government is that they are very open to criticism and they actually listen like h3ll. That’s how you know people that are serious about getting things done. Unlike places where the first reaction is to track critics down, b3at them up or intim!date them, or look for who to arr3st,that’s not the mindset of people ready to grow. The Nigerian factor is very real and it can slow down progress, but you can still see the will and the effort to be different. That said, some things should be considered from the very beginning. The landscape along the road is extremely important. The road median and the sides of the expressway matter a lot for the overall look and feel. I heard the Green Line might pass along the edge of the Lekki-Epe Expressway. If that’s true, the area should be properly fenced off with beautiful iron designs displaying adverts for the Green Line, rather than leaving it looking abandoned until construction begins. And to the landscaping companies in the city ,you are literally sitting on money waiting to be made. Why not approach the government and pitch to handle the landscaping of the Lekki-Epe corridor? E1 is coming in about 7 months. When visitors arrive, we need them to be wowed even more than last year. Let them immediately notice the difference. Use that expressway to cook something beautiful please. People like us are ready to use your stunning landscaping designs to disturb the internet. 😁💥👌 Sola Giwa Oluwaseun Osiyemi Engr.

My Tinubu has done this to the good people of Arewa. Abuja–Kaduna Highway Nears Completion: 118km Concrete Section Hits 95% with Solar Lighting. The 118km reinforced concrete pavement section of the Abuja–Kaduna road project is now 95% completed and fully equipped with solar street lighting. Built to the same durable standard as the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway, this phase of the project is valued at ₦252 billion, with over 80% of the cost already covered under the leadership of President Tinubu. The section is scheduled for full completion by the first week of May 2026. Work is also progressing steadily on the remaining 164km stretch in Kaduna State, which is being constructed using the same reinforced concrete pavement standard. This phase is valued at ₦502 billion, with 70% of the funding already disbursed. The entire Abuja–Kaduna road project is on track for full completion by December 2026, and will feature comprehensive solar lighting throughout. This milestone reflects a strong commitment to delivering durable road infrastructure and improving connectivity across the region.

ATIKU-AMAECHI: THE ONLY TICKET EQUIPPED TO REVIVE AND ADVANCE PORTS IN THE SOUTH-SOUTH & SOUTH-EAST By Sopriala Membere ( Sopriala Membere🇻🇦⚓ ) Columnist, Scholar and Member CRA Advocacy Network Video: Circa 2020 (a few months before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic) _____________________________________ It was on Wednesday, August 26th, 2026, before a delegation of political support groups who had travelled from Northern Nigeria to pledge their loyalty, that former Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, now the presidential standard-bearer of the African Democratic Congress, uttered a sentence that may yet prove to be one of the most consequential policy declarations of the 2027 election cycle. Among his commitments was a pledge to develop the country's other existing southern ports, and in elaborating on how long this had preoccupied him, he recalled travelling to Europe during an earlier campaign to discuss with shippers and ship-development companies how those ports might be built up to create, as he put it, "balance as far as importation is concerned" between the south south and south East and the rest of the country. It is worth pausing to consider what was happening in that room. A northern politician, standing before a largely northern audience in the federal capital, was not promising roads or boreholes or the usual transactional favours that define Nigerian electoral patronage directed at the north. He was talking about Calabar, about Uyo, about Port Harcourt, about Onne ports that have languished in the shadows of Lagos for so long that an entire generation of Nigerian traders has grown up believing that importation is synonymous with Apapa and Tin Can Island. He was talking about maritime equity, about the radical proposition that a federation should not have one throat through which all its commerce must pass. And he was doing so not as a rhetorical flourish but as a man who had already done the homework, who had sat across tables in European shipping offices and argued the case for Nigeria’s forgotten harbours. The immediate context was personal and visceral. Atiku spoke of his own factory in Adamawa, of the absurdity of watching containers sit in a congested Lagos port traffic for up to two months before reaching Yola, of young entrepreneurs driven into bankruptcy not by market forces but by the structural insanity of a port system that treats the rest of the country as a hinterland of Lagos. “How can there be security?” he asked, and the question hung in the air with the weight of someone who understands that economic desperation is the mother of insecurity. But to read Atiku’s August 26th declaration merely as a campaign promise is to miss its deeper resonance. It belongs to a longer conversation about what Nigeria has done to itself through decades of infrastructural monoculture, about how a nation with 853 kilometres of Atlantic coastline and natural harbours that once served as the gateways of West African trade came to depend on a single overburdened port artery in Lagos, while the Eastern Ports—Calabar, Port Harcourt, Onne, Warri, decayed in various stages of elegant neglect. The Nigerian Ports Authority has lately been scrambling to reverse this, securing a $1.1 billion rehabilitation facility and overseeing a $2.9 billion expansion at Onne. Yet these are bureaucratic interventions, palliatives administered by an agency that knows the patient is haemorrhaging but lacks the political authority to perform the needed surgery that addresses the root cause of the hemorrhage. What the Eastern Ports require is not incremental rehabilitation but a presidential-level commitment backed by a vice president who understands, from lived administrative experience, precisely how the arteries of Nigerian maritime commerce function. This is where the ADC’s selection of Rotimi Amaechi as Atiku’s running mate transforms the August 26 pledge from aspiration into an executable policy.

ATIKU-AMAECHI: THE ONLY TICKET EQUIPPED TO REVIVE AND ADVANCE PORTS IN THE SOUTH-SOUTH & SOUTH-EAST By Sopriala Membere ( Sopriala Membere🇻🇦⚓ ) Columnist, Scholar and Member CRA Advocacy Network Video: Circa 2020 (a few months before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic) _____________________________________ It was on Wednesday, August 26th, 2026, before a delegation of political support groups who had travelled from Northern Nigeria to pledge their loyalty, that former Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, now the presidential standard-bearer of the African Democratic Congress, uttered a sentence that may yet prove to be one of the most consequential policy declarations of the 2027 election cycle. Among his commitments was a pledge to develop the country's other existing southern ports, and in elaborating on how long this had preoccupied him, he recalled travelling to Europe during an earlier campaign to discuss with shippers and ship-development companies how those ports might be built up to create, as he put it, "balance as far as importation is concerned" between the south south and south East and the rest of the country. It is worth pausing to consider what was happening in that room. A northern politician, standing before a largely northern audience in the federal capital, was not promising roads or boreholes or the usual transactional favours that define Nigerian electoral patronage directed at the north. He was talking about Calabar, about Uyo, about Port Harcourt, about Onne ports that have languished in the shadows of Lagos for so long that an entire generation of Nigerian traders has grown up believing that importation is synonymous with Apapa and Tin Can Island. He was talking about maritime equity, about the radical proposition that a federation should not have one throat through which all its commerce must pass. And he was doing so not as a rhetorical flourish but as a man who had already done the homework, who had sat across tables in European shipping offices and argued the case for Nigeria’s forgotten harbours. The immediate context was personal and visceral. Atiku spoke of his own factory in Adamawa, of the absurdity of watching containers sit in a congested Lagos port traffic for up to two months before reaching Yola, of young entrepreneurs driven into bankruptcy not by market forces but by the structural insanity of a port system that treats the rest of the country as a hinterland of Lagos. “How can there be security?” he asked, and the question hung in the air with the weight of someone who understands that economic desperation is the mother of insecurity.

Following credible reports that hoodlums had taken over the Orile Under Bridge and were extorting money from cart pushers who dump refuse illegally in the area, the Environmental Task Force carried out a raid at about 2:45pm today. During the operation, 26 suspects were arrested. Some of them admitted to collecting money from cart pushers in exchange for allowing indiscriminate dumping of waste. They have been taken into custody for further investigation and necessary action in line with the law. In a separate operation earlier today at about 8:00am, Agency operatives continued the ongoing clean-up exercise along the Coastal Road. Hoodlums had converted the road setback into makeshift dwellings, erecting several wooden sheds and occupying the corridor unlawfully. The illegal structures were dismantled, and items stored along the roadside were removed. We will not allow public infrastructure to be hijacked for illegal activities. Enforcement will remain consistent and sustained across the State. #ZeroToleranceLagos

This is the Lekki Epe expressway,the same corridor, only with upgraded roads, proper greenery on the medians, and modern road infrastructure by AI. Most of our city designs are outdated. Just bare road medians, little or no proper greenery, zero sidewalks, and zero cycle lanes. This is 2026; we need to move away from these old colonial-style designs and rebrand to modern urban standards. We already have all the structures and built-up environment. What we now need are modern roads, intentional landscaping, and proper urban design. This is exactly the kind of work Lagos State Parks and Gardens Agency - LASPARK should be outsourcing to capable private landscaping companies. Other agencies in Lagos are Top-notch, but LASPARK needs to sit up, while the Ministry of Environment/LAWMA must also step up on issues like street trading, street urchins, and keeping the environment crystal clean. These are the things that shape perception about a place. Before tourists notice the big projects, their eyes first catch the small things. Obafemi Hamzat/Babajide Sanwo-Olu must not overlook these key sectors so they do not undermine the administration’s bigger achievements.

WHY TINUBU? with SEYILAW: Roads and Real Progress For some, the phrase “na road we go chop” is tossed around casually, as if road infrastructure were a luxury rather than a necessity. But this is not ignorance. It is a dangerous dismissal of the role of roads play in development, economic empowerment, and the security of our people. I speak not from hearsay but from lived experience, and I invite you to fact-check me yourself. For the first time in many years, Nigeria is witnessing an unprecedented wave of road construction projects. No administration before President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s has embarked on repairs and new builds at this scale. Across the country, the evidence is visible: - Southwest & South-South: - Shagamu–Benin Expressway - Ore–Akure Road - Akure–Ado Road - Benin–Sapele–Warri route - Benin–Asaba Road Ibadan - Akure road - Southeast & South-South: - Port Harcourt–Enugu Road - Benue–Enugu Road - East–West Road (Port Harcourt–Warri section, ~75% complete) - Enugu–Onitsha Expressway (~60% complete) - Benin–Auchi–Okene Road (~55% complete) - Newly built Eke Obinagu Flyover, Enugu Ebony - Calabar - Abuja road. Bonny - Port Harcourt Road - Southwest: - Lagos–Ibadan Expressway (~90% complete) - Ilorin–Jebba–Mokwa Road (~81% complete) - Oyo–Ogbomosho Road - North & Middle Belt: - Abuja–Lokoja Road (~65% complete) - Abuja–Keffi–Akwanga–Lafia–Makurdi Road (~70% complete) - Kano–Maiduguri Expressway (remaining sections ~70% complete) And yes, I deliberately left out the Lagos–Calabar Coastal Highway and the Sokoto–Badagry Highway—because even without them, the scale of ongoing work is staggering. I also refused to mention the level of roads done in Abuja by Minister Nyesom Wike. This is not about emotions or partisan loyalty. It is about facts on the ground. The roads are being built, repaired, and completed. So before you dismiss the progress as a side issue, please counter with real evidence. Thank you. SEYILAW #WHYTINUBU #SEYILAW #TINUBU2027

Accra–Kumasi Expressway Project This historic project marks Ghana’s first true expressway, a modern high-speed corridor linking Accra and Kumasi. Stretching almost 200 kilometres from the coast to the forest belt, the expressway will transform travel and trade, cut journey times significantly, and boost growth across the southern regions. The route runs southeast to northwest through the Greater Accra, Eastern, and Ashanti regions, touching key towns like Adeiso, Asamankese, Akim Oda, Ofoase, and Kwaso. In total, the highway covers 198.7 kilometres, including 23 kilometres of urban connecting sections in Accra and Kumasi built to a 4-lane standard at 60 kilometres per hour, and a 175-kilometre main expressway of 6 lanes designed for speeds up to 120 kilometres per hour. It will stand as a symbol of Ghana’s commitment to modernisation, connectivity, and inclusive growth.

So, this is one of the most detailed videos of the Lagos Blue Line phase 2. It’s quite lengthy, but I encourage you to watch it till the end. The prioritisation of Rail transportation by the Sanwo-Olu-led administration is beautiful to see. This particular corridor is a major international trading corridor, with many Nigerian and Asian traders operating along it. Even the road you see is expected to be transformed into a 10-lane superhighway, which the governor has already hinted at. That is why some areas, including sections occupied by traders, are being cleared. The Blue Line runs from Marina to Okokomaiko. The first phase is already operational, while work on the second phase is ongoing. The extension will serve stations at Mile 2, Festac, Alakija, Volkswagen, Alaba International Market, Trade Fair, LASU and Okokomaiko. These stations will serve traders, 9-to-5 workers, small businesses, visitors and residents along the corridor. The line covers LG areas including Amuwo-Odofin, Ojo, Oriade and Orile Iganmu, among others. Many people living along this corridor commute daily to work on the Island, while others depend on the major markets along the route. I really commend the government for this multi-billion-dollar investment in rail transportation. However, rail does not replace road infrastructure. The next administration must make road rehabilitation a major priority. In the first four years, there should be a determined effort to get Lagos roads into best conditions. Why? Because many rail users are 9-to-5 workers, small business owners and visitors, but major investors, CEOs and top executives will still drive. When you bring investors into a city, the roads, environment, landscaping, greenery, public spaces and overall appearance all matter. The Green Line is another example. Its Phase 1A will have about eight stations, with flyovers and pedestrian infrastructure helping to separate road traffic and pedestrian movement from the rail corridor totally 8 U shaped Flyovers and Pedestrian sky walks. The more quality road infrastructure we have, the better the quality of life in Lagos. This is why the next administration should prioritise roads, bridges, public transportation, cleanliness, beautification and public spaces together. Ensure the BRT works properly, ensure the trains run efficiently, but please don't neglect the environment. Sometimes Govt wonder why Lagosians don't appreciate government projects despite the huge investments being made. The answer is simple: people judge government by how their quality of life changes in real time. Lagos has a massive population and serious congestion problems. Every new road, bridge, flyover, public space or environmental improvement directly affects millions of people. Every government must study its environment and understand what its people actually need. In Lagos, road infrastructure is not a luxury,it is one of our biggest needs. So I want to encourage the government to start flagging off more road projects urgently, continue the bridges that have already started, and find ways to fund and complete them quickly eg the VGC Bridge. If we can combine the Green Line, Blue Line, Red Line, BRT, new roads, bridges, flyovers and a cleaner, better-maintained environment, the quality of life in Lagos will skyrocket. This government is doing a lot. Let’s get the remaining basics right too. God bless our government, and God bless the good people of Lagos. 🙏🏾🇳🇬 Babajide Sanwo-Olu Obafemi Hamzat Damilola Sonayon James Seyi Tinubu ENIOLA BADMUS I am Dayo Amusa Lagos Min of the Environment and Water Resources The Lagos State Govt LASEPA Oluwaseun Osiyemi Tokunbo Wahab Lagos State Ministry of Works and Infrastructure Funke Akindele Oluwaseun Osiyemi Kolawole Ojelabi Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority LAMATA LAWMA LAWMA Customer Care 📷: A detailed documentary of the Lagos Blue Line phase 2 running from Mile 2- Okoko 🚅
