The Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, disclose this on Tuesday, during an inspection tour of completed and ongoing Federal Government projects in Lagos State.
The inspection tour began at Marina Road in the Victoria Island area of the state, from where the minister moved to the newly rehabilitated Eko Bridge, and then to Ijora Olopa, at the Lagoon section of Eko Bridge and Apapa.
