The Federal and Lagos State Governments over the weekend have pledged concerted action to evict traders and illegal occupants under Lagos bridges. Both governments declared zero tolerance to abuse of bridges and hinged on the need to save lives and protect the infrastructure. Minister of Works and Housing, Mr Babatunde Fashola and officials of Lagos State Government briefed journalists on their position after inspecting Apongbon and Eko bridges in Lagos. Fashola said efforts to quickly complete initial emergency rehabilitation on Eko Bridge were slowed down when Apongbon Bridge was affected by fire in March. He said construction materials imported for completion of Eko Bridge were deployed to begin urgent repairs on Apongbon. The minister said that efforts to complete Apongbon before Christmas had also been frustrated by another fire that affected the Ijora Olopa section of Eko Bridge on November 4. He said the government would not be able to actualise its plan of completing Apongbon Bridge because its materials had been deployed to the burnt section of Eko Bridge. He joined the contractor on the project to give technical details of how casings and other components were being used for rehabilitation on both bridges.
