NLC and Ogun residents block Abeokuta-Lagos Expressway

Scores of members of the Nigeria Labour Congress and residents of Ogun State today blocked the Sango Ota section of the Lagos—Abeokuta Expressway in protest against the deplorable condition of the road.
The protesters blocked the Sango-Ota road in the Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of the state from Joju Bus-Stop to the Garage area of the area during the protest.
The protesters demanded that the federal and state governments should find a lasting solution to the deplorable state of the road.
The protesters carried placards with various inscriptions such as “Repair our road with immediate effect or face the wrath of the masses; “400% hike in transport fare due to bad road”; “Our roads are death traps fix our roads”; “No good roads, No payment of tax”; “Our taxes are meant for fixing road so what happened”; and “Industries in Ota are relocating and closing down due to bad roads”.
Leading the protesters, the state NLC chairman, Emmanuel Bankole said the union decided to protest to show its displeasure over the continued non-challant attitude of the government after the visit of the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola to the road and did not do anything about the road.
The protesters, however, threatened to shut down Ogun State if construction doesn’t start in 21 days.
