Lagos to shut down ACME Road for LG primary Saturday, issues traffic advisory

The Lagos State Government has issued a Traffic Advisory to aid free movement during the All Progressives Congress primaries scheduled to hold at APC State Secretariat on ACME Road, Ikeja on Saturday, 10th May, 2025.

Mr. Oluwaseun Osiyemi, the Commissioner for Transportation in a statement on Wednesday said motorists would not be able to access ACME Road from Adeniyi Jones, Lateef Jakande and ACME Crescent ends.

“The entire stretch of ACME Road will be closed off to vehicular movement during the primaries,” he explained.

The commissioner urged motorists to use the following alternative routes:

“Motorists coming from Adeniyi Jones are to link Aromire to access Allen Junction and continue their journeys.

“Similarly, motorists coming from Allen are advised to use Aromire to link Ladipo Oluwole and access Guinness to reach their intended destinations.

“Motorists coming from Akilo Road will also be able to connect Wemco Road, link Lateef Jakande, or continue onto Omole to complete their journeys.

“Members of the public are kindly advised to plan their movement ahead of Saturday. If you do not have any urgent or necessary business around the ACME Road axis, please consider avoiding the area to ease movement and reduce congestion.

“Officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) will be on ground to manage vehicular movement along the affected corridors,” he added.
