Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola (SAN) has promised to rebuild the Mile 12-Ikorodu Road, if re-elected into office next month.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said commuters, who avoid the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, use the road as an alternative.<\/span><\/p>\n

The governor said this had put pressure on the road.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola said: \u2018\u2019There is too much pressure on Mile 12-Ikorodu road. When Lagos-Ibadan Expressway packed up, commuters shifted to this road.\u2019\u2019\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe have completed the design for the road. It will be a six lane-road, with one line for BRT.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola urged the people of Ikorodu to be vigilant.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was allegedly planning to mobilise thugs from Oyo and Ogun states to disrupt the elections in Ikorodu.<\/span><\/p>\n

The governor spoke at the campaign rally organised by leaders and members of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) in Ikorodu.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola said: \u201cPDP held a meeting. They are afraid of elections. They \u00a0mobilised \u00a0people from Oyo and Ogun states to create confusion in Ikorodu.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019They want to repeat the same during elections. Let our fathers and leaders be vigilant. We will resist them.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOn the day of election, thumb print the space where you see the broom. Give us that one day and we will give you four years of great and unquantifiable service.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Party supporters from Ijede, Ipakodo, Owutu, Imota, Ibeshe, Isiwo, Odogiyan and and Igbogbo were hosted by Prince Abiodun Ogunleye, Asiwaju Olorunfunmi Basorun, Asipa Kaoli Olusanya, Olukoga and Prince Lanre Balogun.<\/span><\/p>\n

State Chairman of the party Otunba Dele Ajomale presented flags to Alhaji Gbenga Ashafa (Senate), Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa (House of Representatives), Sunai Agunbiade and Mrs Nosmot Akinsola (House of Assembly).<\/span><\/p>\n

Defectors from the PDP, led by Olu Ogunborisa, a former lawmaker, were admitted into the ACN by Ajomale.<\/span><\/p>\n

The party chairman enjoined them to work for the success of the party at the polls.<\/span><\/p>\n

Present at the campaign, which took place at the Ikorodu Town Hall, were Fashola\u2019s wife, Abimbola, Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora, former Speaker of the House of Assembly, Joko Pelumi, Chief Adeseye Amingo, Mrs Toun Ajomale, Chief Funso Ologunde, Kayode Opeifa, Mrs Folake Sokunbi-Kalokalo, Bolaji Sanusi and local party leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola paid tribute to the monarch, the Ayangburen of Ikorodu, Oba Salau Oyefusi, and other eminent Ikorodu leaders, including the late TOS Benson, Chief Adeniran Ogunsanya, Chief Babatunde Ogunsanya, Olukoga, Basorun and Ogunleye.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said they were credible leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n

The governor hailed the people for defying the sun to hear their leaders.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said it was a demostration that they were ready to support him and ACN at the elections.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola appealed to the party leaders and followers to put the acrimony behind them and work for the interest of the party.<\/span><\/p>\n

He listed his achievements in Ikorodu as the building of a High Court Complex, provision of water, jetties, roads and establishment of a drivers\u2019 institute.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The governor said: \u201cThirty-one road projects are going on. We have awarded Ibeshe road and Isawo and Isheri roads.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola told the people to reject the PDP.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said the PDP frustrated the Independent Power project (IPP), which was hosted by the division.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fashola said PDP could not do much for Nigerians because it devoted 25 per cent of the budget to capital project.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
