Arrangements are in top gear by the Lagos State government to make President Muhammadu Buhari's two day visit to the state on 23rd and 24th January, a befitting experience and give it maximum media coverage beyond Nigeria.
Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, who stated this at the Press Conference held at Alausa, by the Lagos State Government on President Buhari's visit to Lagos, themed: "Lagos Festival of Projects Commissioning", urged Lagosians to cooperate with the state government to make the visit successful.
The Commissioner said the projects to be commissioned include, Lagos Rice Mill, Imota, 18.75killometere Eleko-Epe Rigid Pavement six Lane Express way, Blue Light Rail from Mile Two to Marina, Lekki Deep Sea Port, John Randle Centre for Yoruba Culture and History, MRS Lubricant, Apapa.
While corroborating the position of the commissioner for information and Strategy, his counterpart in the transport sector, Doctor Frederick Oladeinde, also said Lagos would not shutdown movement but would ensure the right diversions were put in place to make the visit as painless as possible.
Oladeinde noted that a statement would be officially issued by the ministry of transport to direct Lagosians on appropriate diversions during the period of the President's visit which would attract a high security presence in the state.
