Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu officially boarded the coach of the recently finished Lagos Blue Line and made history by traveling on the electric-powered rail system for the first time.
From Mile 2 to Marina, the 13-kilometer-long first phase of the completed tracks covers five stations.
The event, according to Abimbola Akinajo, was “fantastic” and opened a new chapter for Lagos.
The development, according to the Commissioner for Transportation, Dr. Frederic Oladeinde, attested to the governor’s drive to alter the State’s transportation narrative and ensure quick mobility in Lagos.
The Commissioner claimed that the rail project would increase transportation efficiency and unleash greater economic prosperity for the state.
