By Kazeem Ugbodaga

The Federal Executive Council, FEC, on Wednesday approved contract for the rehabilitation of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway.

The road had been in dilapidated state for long, as the Lagos State Government failed to carry out full work on the road after it promised to convert it to 10-lane expressway.

This was revealed by the Federal Government’s twitter handle @Asorock on Wednesday.

“FEC today approved a contract for the rehabilitation of the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, specifically the 46km Section from Agbara-Badagry-Seme Border. (The repair of the section from Eric Moore to Okokomaiko is being carried out by the Lagos State Govt),” the government said on its twitter handle.

Also, the Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed disclosed that N460 billion had been released from 2018 Capital budget, as of September 2018.
