Lagos state is said to be the economic capital of Nigeria and the reason why it is so isn’t far-fetched. Lagos is home to several multi-national companies who have invested so much into the economy of the country.
Successive administrations in Lagos have always seen the potentials Lagos state offers the country and are ever willing to tap into those potentials either for the personal aggrandisement or for the development of the state and invariably the nation.
However since the advent of democracy in 1999, the dominant party in power has capitalised on the potentials but in a negative way. Several atrocities have been committed in other sectors but emphasis here is on the road construction in the state. (Have it in mind that road construction gulps billions of naira).
Below are the facts that will give you insights into the biggest fraud ever conceived and committed in Nigeria
1. The Lekki-Epe express road was initially constructed by the Jakande administration and completed by the Mudashiru and Mike Akhigbe military administrations in 1987. The entire Lekki axis was then opened up for rapid development. Between 1985 and now, the corridor has been experiencing rapid and unprecedented urban growth as hundreds of new communities, developments and estates have developed which drew large population of low and middle income Lagosians.
