Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has expressed his gratitude to President Bola Tinubu and Minister of Works, Dave Umahi, after the full reopening of the Third Mainland Bridge, following extensive repair works.

The Bridge was fully opened to the public on Thursday, which prompted Sanwo-Olu to take to his X account to thank Tinubu and Umahi for their expedited focus and attention to detail on the Third Mainland Bridge project.

In his post, Sanwo-Olu said, “I am pleased to announce the full reopening of the Third Mainland Bridge after extended repair works have been completed to ensure its safety and efficiency for all residents.

“I extend my deepest gratitude to HE President @officialABAT and the Honourable Minister of Works, David Umahi for their expedited focus and attention to detail on the Third Mainland Bridge project.

“My thanks also go to the Lagos State Ministry of Transportation for their effective traffic management throughout this period. Their dedication has minimized disruptions and maintained flow, demonstrating our collective strength and ability to overcome challenges.

“As we embrace the smoother journeys that the newly renovated bridge provides, it also calls for a renewed emphasis on road safety. Our shared commitment to safety ensures not only our well-being but also the well-being of other road users. Thank you, Lagosians, for your unwavering support.”
