Speaking during an inspection tour of the Ajasa-Command and Abesan communities, he also promised to repair old roads and build new roads.
“Work will commence on roads in the Ajasa-Command and Abesan areas. The projects will accommodate walkways, streetlights and drainage systems. I felt sad when I got here to see the state of the roads in this area. It is so displeasing and totally unacceptable to me. I have read several letters written to me by residents and that was why I decided to come to see the state of things myself.
I will start from where they stopped work previously on Ekoro Road and we will fix the drainage channels from there to Ajasa within the next two weeks. We will not stop at that; we will fix the roads also. We are also going to fix this road from Command Bridge down to Command and Ikola.

In addition to that, we are bringing schools into these communities. One of our priorities for 2016 is to provide schools and health centres for all our communities and we will make sure that these parts of Lagos are well represented in that provision.”
