According to a statement signed by
Steve Ayorinde, Commissioner for Information and Strategy, the Third Mainland
Bridge constitutes an important segment of the road network in the state, as
such, the state Government cannot overlook its importance as it also serves as
a connecting point to the high brow economic pot of the state.
He further explained that the effort
is to fulfill the 24/7 economy promised by the State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi
Ambode during his electioneering campaign period.
“The economy of Lagos has gone
beyond the day driven transactions, as such, the night economy component should
be fully developed.
“Every businessman wants to invest in a safe and secured environment. Once an investor is assured that the operating environment is safe and secured; the assurance of more investment is guaranteed,” Ayorinde said.
