Lagos has always been a city that builds, innovates, and sets the pace for Africa. The ongoing Opebi–Iya Alaro–Ojota link bridge is not just another road; it represents the bold re-imagining of a city that refuses to be held hostage by traffic gridlock.
For 20 years, this project was a recurring proposal on paper. Under Governor Sanwo-Olu, it’s now at 90% completion, promising relief to thousands of daily commuters along the Ikeja–Maryland–Ikorodu corridor. The bridge is a masterstroke of engineering — a symbol of how infrastructure can transform lives.
Yet, critics seem more eager to peddle unverified stories of scandal than to highlight this milestone. Lagosians must reclaim the narrative by celebrating leaders who transform our cities in real, tangible ways.
