Lagos state govt declare ongoing projects in Badagry will open town to the world.
The Lagos State Government says it is executing different projects in Badagry to open the ancient town to the world and enable investors come into it.
Mr Solomon Bonu, the Special Adviser to Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Tourism, Arts and Culture, made this known during an on-the-spot assessment of ongoing and completed projects by the state government on Monday in Badagry.
“When all these projects are completed in Badagry, they will bring about more development and make the ancient town the future of Lagos,’’ Bonu said.
The special adviser said he was on-the-spot assessment of the projects to prepare them for inauguration when next the governor would visit the town.
Bonu said that the essence of the visit was to enable the people know what government is doing in the town.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, the projects include Aradagun, Ilado, Imeke road construction and construction of a block of 18 classrooms at the State High School, Ibereko.
Others are: Badagry Slave Market Museum located at the Vrekete, Lagos Jetty Project, construction of a structure at Agia Tree, construction of a five-Star Hotel along ASCON road and the construction of Topo, Idale Badagry Market road.
At the site of Aradagun Ilado Imeke road construction, Bonu said government had completed the first phase of the road from Iworo to Ajido.
According to him, when the ongoing construction is completed, it will serve about eight communities in Badagry.
He appealed to the residents at Ajagamibo in Aradagun to cooperate with the construction workers to do their work.

Bonu said the governor felt the suffering of children in the area who used to walk long distances to school and decided to build classrooms in their midst.
He said the projects would enable the students receive teachings under a more conducive environment.
