Badagry expressway, a show of shame – CAN


The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has decried the slow pace of work on the Agbara–Seme section of the Lagos–Badagry expressway, describing the condition of the road as “pathetic” and a shame to the nation.

The 46 km Agbara–Seme border expressway which was awarded to CGC Construction Ltd, had only witnessed about five km of drainage construction from Age Mowo to Mowo since the contractor moved to site in November last year.

Speaking to News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, on Tuesday, CAN Coordinator in Badagry, Sunday Hunyinbo, narrated what some foreign missionaries visiting Badagry for the first time had experienced on the state of the road.

“Recently, we had some visitors from Texas, U.S.A., who came to Badagry to conduct Leadership Programmes for Ministers of God here.

“When they came, if you hear the tales of sorrow from their mouth on what they experienced before reaching Badagry, you will pity them.

“They were shouting, your roads are bad. It was a show of shame to us,” he said.

Mr Hunyinbo urged the government to show some understanding with the motorists and commuters by completing the project on schedule.

“The deplorable state of the road is affecting everybody including students.
