MY DAY's CROWDED ENGAGEMENT. I departed Abuja early this morning for Enugu, where I attended a brief meeting before proceeding to Awka for another engagement. This evening, while in Lagos, I traveled to Ogun State in response to an invitation from the President of LoveWorld Nation to attend LoveWorld Expo 2026, taking place at the LoveWorld Campground. I had the opportunity to hear from the organizers and members of the leadership team about the inspiration behind the event and their expectations for it. For me, the visit reaffirmed a principle I have long held: a commitment to prayer should be accompanied by productivity. Our prayers should motivate us to make a meaningful difference, create value, and help address the challenges confronting humanity. Ultimately, building a better society requires not only prayer but also purposeful action. I extend my sincere appreciation to the President of LoveWorld Nation, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Ph.D.), and his team for this commendable initiative. A new Nigeria is POssible. - PO

“ I have always questioned this concept of executive experience. Look at people like Alhaji Lateef Jakande. He did not bring executive experience to government, but brought empathy to governance, allowing him to deliver in ways this government has not done in 20 years.” ~ Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour on Fitness for Office and Governance Capacity. #LagosGovernorshipDebate #LagosDecides #NigeriaDebateConsortium

A man of convictions fears no scrutiny. We have been consistent and have laid a blueprint on how we'd achieve our Manifesto. My focus is on making the quality of life of Lagosians better, from Commuting to Productivity Together, We would Make Èkó Great Again #OurLagos #VoteADC
GRV DEBATES- ISSUE: 2/5 Connecting Ikorodu and the entire Lagos East: The benefit of having interlinked belt roads to connect Lagos East far out weighs a 4th-mainland bridge. 1) It is cheaper to achieve. 2) It opens up the entire axis for development 3) It improves the interconnectivity of the eastern foreshore by giving people more options for movement . #Ourlagos

Dear Lagosians, please read the detailed breakdown by @BOGbadams . We will deliver a Lagos that works. #Ourlagos #VoteADC #GbadeGbada Lets put Lagos is in great hands.
I like these kinds of statements because they present an opportunity to enlighten those who do not understand our ideas. You want a 38km "high-capacity" 4th Mainland Bridge that will run from Ogombo to Isawo in Ikorodu. Understood. Now, could you tell me HOW you propose to achieve that without a catastrophic level of home demolitions starting from Ogombo through Abraham Adesanya, through most of Ajah, OkeIra-nla, OkeIra-Kekere and Badore. Now, this is just on the Lekki side of the bridge. On the Ikorodu side, the demolitions would start from either Ijede or Baiyeku, depending on where the bridge lands, and most certainly wipe out a large portion along the Ginti/Igbe-Laara axis, which is probably why they are refusing to fix those roads. Most of Erunwen, through some of Sabo, Àgbàlá all the way through to Isawo will be destroyed. This is not service anymore. It is utterly despicable dislocation and displacement of millions of Lagosians. The Belt road proposal leaves almost ALL these properties intact, instead opening up new areas that had hitherto been undeveloped, along the Ikorodu Coastal Area AND the Lekki Northern Shoreline. It also takes a huge load off the existing bridges, freeing up Ikoyi and Lagos Island. This gives us the opportunity to either repair or completely redesign and rebuild these bridges to allow marine traffic through, in keeping with our plan to use the waterways more for passenger and freight transport. The fact of 4, 5, or 6 more bridges, as shown in the illustration, connecting shoreline roads and penetrating further into grid road systems on both sides actually moves wayore traffic and helps the Ikorodu side level up faster, as development ALWAYS follows roads. Similar schemes are planned for the Badagry/Alimosho axis. If we all work together, we can Make Èkó Great Again. #VoteGRV2027 #VoteADCLagos #MEGA2027 #OurLagos

Are you doing this intentionally for gig payment or as an APC supporter? I watched the GRV video you shared. His words: “I’ll build shorter bridges about 6km apart. They’re more efficient and cheaper than the 4th Mainland Bridge.” We can do better by being factual.
Mr Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour says that, if elected, he will cancel the Fourth Mainland Bridge project and introduce cable cars from Ikorodu across to Ajah instead, alongside 6km bridges. But Ikorodu currently has only one major outlet connecting it to other parts of Lagos, apart from travelling through the Lotto axis towards Berger. Dr Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, on the other hand, says he will deliver the Fourth Mainland Bridge within his first term, as it is a major priority in his manifesto. The project is an expensive one, estimated at $2.5 billion, and will therefore be tolled to make it financially viable and bankable. For context, this is a 38-kilometre bridge project, designed with nine interchanges to connect several major corridors and communities across Lagos State: • Lagos Island/Lekki-Epe Axis: Starting from Abraham Adesanya in Ajah, passing through Lekki and Langbasa. • Lagos Lagoon Crossing: Spanning a 4.5-kilometre section across the Lagos Lagoon. • Ikorodu Axis: Traversing Baiyeku, the Igbogbo River Basin, Itamaga, Itoikin Road, the Ikorodu-Sagamu Road, and Owutu/Isawo in Ikorodu. • Lagos-Ibadan Expressway Axis: Connecting towards the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway around Ojodu Berger. Thoughts? 😳 📷: Proposed 4th Mainland Bridge project by Dr. KOH

Guys I know GRV is in the wrong party but let's be honest, He's the best candidate for Lagos In my opinion, Its GRV over Funsho Doherty
To fix a problem, You must first accept there is one Why are you angry at people for saying they're experiencing a smelly Lagos? Why denying and excusing for the smell caused by failed Waste collection system? That's not Leadership Lagos is Smelling, GRV would fix it #OurLagos

Connecting Ikorodu and the whole of Lagos East with interlinked belt roads outweighs a 4th Mainland Bridge; It’s cheaper, it opens the entire axis for development, and it gives the eastern foreshore more ways to move. A Well Planned Lagos is Possible, Vote GRV [ADC] #OurLagos

Omo Eko Pataki. Your concerns are germane. Far be it for me to impoverish and rob Lagos indigenes of their lands as the APC have done for decades. We will compensate all land owners and partner with them as stakeholders / beneficiaries of this project. We have no intention of using conventional construction methods or models, neither do we plan to restrict ourselves to conventional construction typologies or materials. We would use the Jakande LBIC model to purchase materials in bulk to achieve economies of scale as well as use direct trained labour that are certified products of our skill acquisition centres. Further more, we will lean on upcycling materials to achieve our aims, some Examples include reconstituting concrete hard-core and container- tecture. As part of our declaration of emergency in the housing sector,We will also pass a law that gives the state first right of refusal on all hard-core produced by demolitions in the state. This material will be crushed and reconstituted as precast members for our modular housing units. Affordability, speed , innovation and solid stakeholders engagement will bring our vision to reality. #Ourlagos
“There is enough land in Lagos East to accommodate well over the 100,000 housing units that we propose.” Won’t you pay compensation to the owners? Bobo yii lasan. 😂😂 Even with 1tr set aside, 100k units will be practically impossible with the current cost of construction
