This was disclosed by Governor Akinwunmi Ambode on Thursday, April 14, 2016 during a town hall meeting in Ikorodu.

According to a press statement released by his media aide, Habib Aruna, Ambode said:

“Many investors have shown interest in the actualization of our dream for the 4th Mainland Bridge which will run from Ajah to Ikorodu to Isawo and berth at Ojodu, Ikeja back to the Ibadan expressway. By the grace of God, we will sign an MoU and commence action before May 29.”

“Over the years, the economic activities have continually dwindled resulting in urban migration, underdevelopment and unemployment. It is with a view of revitalizing the economic activities of this zone that Government has identified the need for urgent intervention.

“To this end, Government will be relocating the Mile 12 Market to Imota. Work on this will commence next week. Our vision is to make the East Senatorial Zone economically viable and liveable.”

Traders in the Mile 12 market have however expressed their displeasure at the relocation announcement saying that they were not carried along by the government.
