President Bola Tinubu is in Lagos to inaugurate the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway.

This was announced in a post by the Special assistant to the President on Social Media. Dada Olusegun.

He posted videos of President Tinubu after he arrived in Lagos.

He captioned the post: “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu arrives in Lagos ahead of the flag off of Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway.”

An earlier statement by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, had said the President would on Sunday virtually inaugurate the iconic Lagos-Calabar Superhighway, a legacy project estimated to cost around N15 trillion, which will connect nine coastal states.

“In Lagos on Sunday, the President will inaugurate the concrete-paved road to the nation’s major ports in Apapa and Tin Can Island. The reconstructed road, which began under the Muhammadu Buhari Administration was financed by the Dangote Group, using its tax credits.

“On the same day, President Tinubu will formally inaugurate, by virtual means, the refurbished Third Mainland Bridge, which has drawn public acclaim for its excellent finishing and aesthetic furnishing. He will also commission, virtually, the rehabilitation of 330 roads and bridges across the country.”
