When Third Mainland Bridge was being built, many called it wasteful and unnecessary. “We already have the 1st and 2nd Mainland bridges,” they argued. But imagine Lagos today without it. True leaders build for the future, not for the narrow thinking of the moment.

Ibrahim Babangida, former military President of Nigeria, on what led to the construction of Third Mainland Bridge in Lagos. IBB watched a TV show and saw an American broadcaster mock Nigeria. The white man went to the Bridge when it wasn't completed. And also said that we never finish projects because they're elephant projects. IBB was annoyed and decided to proof him wrong. It was a thing of National pride to him. When he became President, the third mainland Bridge was his number one priority.

“We keep saying Tinubu has a track record but IBB built third mainland Bridge, while Tinubu built a less that one kilometres road and put a toll on it. We need people who have business backgrounds to run the Economy not parasites who have lived their lives in the Treasury. All they know how to do is plan for the next Election” - Gbenga Hasim-Olawepo, PDP Member

The reckless sandfilling of our waterbodies and wetlands is the prime reason for the flooding of Lagos. Not only will this development lead to massive flooding of the Lagos mainland LG, It is also displacing Indigenous communities that have existed here for over 200yrs.

During the debates, I called for a belt road design that would link and open up the northern foreshore of Lagos east. A far more efficient system than the proposed overpriced 4th mainland bridge. #ourlagos

The current state of Nigeria right now is the proof that Tinubu did not build Lagos. It was all propaganda and lies. — Man comes for Tinubu for claiming he built Lagos.

Oworonshoki may become the starting point of a revolution. If they keep bringing their tractors to demolish the homes of the people of Oworonshoki, we will move onto the Third Mainland Bridge and sleep there - Mr. Benjamin.

The new normal of APC in Lagos is to vandalize the living standard of the masses. They demolish with impunity what they lack the capacity to build - rendering hundreds of thousands homeless whilst budgeting billions for themselves for houses in Lagos and Abuja. Lagos was the land of Justice and equity. Mobolaji Johnson birthed it, Alhaji Jakande nurtured it, but this is not the Lagos they envisioned. This is not the Lagos you deserve. -Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour

Dear Lagosians, I am pleased to announce the full reopening of the Third Mainland Bridge after extended repair works have been completed to ensure its safety and efficiency for all residents. Your patience and resilience during this period have been paramount in maintaining our city's economic momentum. I extend my deepest gratitude to HE President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Honourable Minister of Works, David Umahi for their expedited focus and attention to detail on the Third Mainland Bridge project. Their commitment has significantly contributed to the timely and quality completion of these necessary improvements. My thanks also go to the Lagos State Ministry of Transportation for their effective traffic management throughout this period. Their dedication has minimized disruptions and maintained flow, demonstrating our collective strength and ability to overcome challenges. As we embrace the smoother journeys that the newly renovated bridge provides, it also calls for a renewed emphasis on road safety. Our shared commitment to safety ensures not only our wellbeing but also the wellbeing of other road users. Thank you, Lagosians, for your unwavering support.
