Tinubu to inaugurate Opebi–Mende link bridge this week – LASG

President Bola Tinubu is set to inaugurate the Opebi–Mende Link Bridge in Lagos this week.

The Special Adviser to Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Media and Publicity, Gboyega Akosile, disclosed this in a X post shared alongside a video on Monday.

“The Ojota-Opebi link bridge is ready! Yes, it will be flagged off this week by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR.

“This is a transformational and strategic project delivered by Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu. It is a promise made and well delivered!” he wrote.

In a separate post on Sunday, the Lagos State Government across its official platforms described the project as a major infrastructure milestone aimed at improving connectivity and easing traffic within the metropolis.

“The Opebi–Mende Link Bridge is a testament to how strategic infrastructure can transform movement and connect communities in Lagos.

“By linking Opebi in Ikeja to Mende in Maryland, this bridge creates a new route that reduces traffic around Allen, Mobolaji Bank Anthony, and Ikorodu Road,” the government said.
