In line with the directive of Mr. Governor @jidesanwoolu to rid the Lagos-Badagry Transnational Highway of all forms of infractions, environmental pollution, illegal motor parks, roadside trading, and market displays on highway setbacks and pedestrian walkways, enforcement operations uncovered a disturbing act of vandalism beneath the newly constructed bridge linking Festac Town to Alakija.
Investigations revealed that suspected hoodlums had deliberately vandalised critical structural components of the bridge by removing iron rods, steel reinforcements, cables, and other supporting materials essential to the integrity of the infrastructure. This criminal act poses a serious threat to public safety and undermines the government’s investment in critical infrastructure.
Following this discovery, a joint midnight enforcement operation involving officers of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) and the Kick Against Indiscipline (KAI) task force was conducted at the location. The operation led to the arrest of 27 suspected hoodlums, who will be prosecuted in accordance with the extant laws of Lagos State.
The Lagos State Government remains committed to protecting public infrastructure and will continue to take decisive action against individuals or groups engaged in acts of vandalism, environmental infractions, and other criminal activities that threaten the safety and wellbeing of residents.

Nigeria's First Lady Oluremi Tinubu Donates Two Billion Naira For Revitalisation Of Akwete Weaving Industry
Nigeria First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu has announced a donation of two billion Naira support for the revitalisation of the agelong Akwete Weaving industry.
She announced the donation during her maiden visit to Akwete Weavers Village in Abia state.
While highlighting the need to promote the Igbo traditional root by wearing dresses made from the handwoven fabric, the First Lady applauds the Akwete women for their passion and resilience in preserving the cultural heirloom.
At the ceremony, the group too conferred the First Lady with the traditional title of _Ugo Nwanyi_ of Abia state.
The federal government says it has paid N333 billion to eight participating electricity generation companies (GenCos), covering 17 power plants, under the first phase of the power sector debt settlement programme.
Olu Verheijen, special adviser to the president on energy, spoke on Tuesday during the investor forum for the N729 billion series II bond issuance of the presidential power sector financial reforms programme (PPSFRP).
“Series I delivered on its promise. In February 2026, the Federal Government deployed approximately ₦501 billion, N300 billion in cash and roughly ₦201 billion through non-cash bond instruments, addressing approximately 22 percent of the settlement obligations under executed Settlement Agreements, with the balance to be covered through Series II and subsequent issuances,” she said.

Throwback video of one of the Millennium Schools built by Governor Tinubu in 2001. Just look at the quality and intentionality to the structure.
We have undeniable proofs of infrastructures built by Tinubu as Governor over 2 decades ago but none for the one that is parading himself as savior today.
Some cabals are afraid of PBAT's re-election and they are desperate.
If a man who is facing re-election can damn the consequences of politics unlike his predecessors to remove subsidy, break the BDC black market racketeering, NNPC 100% remittance to FAAC ( these 3 items were the biggest heist against the Nigerian economy and its citizens )
He is pushing to disrupt the politics at the local level with LG Autonomy that will empower LG and stop them from being stooges of governors.
States Police, a decentralised security architecture with the establishment of Police Academies and Army Depots in different regions.
Tax reform and internal sharing of VAT to favour Derivation. Wealth should be distributed to align more with where it is derived.
Creation of other regional development commissions.
No President has been bold enough to tackle these issues since 1999.
"What will he do when he is not facing re-election" ?
