Lagos residents may soon heave a sigh of relief as the confusion and hassles that characterise transportation in the state are consigned into oblivion.
This is thanks to the commissioning on Tuesday of the Ebute Ipakodo Metro Ferry Service in Ikorodu by Governor Babatunde Fashola who pledged his administration’s commitment to deliver a multi-modal mass transportation system that will raise the quality of life of the people of Lagos.

Gov. Fashola told the elated crowd, including top government functionaries, traditional rulers and private sector operators at the jetty that his administration was committed to the provision of multi-modal mass transportation system which requires not only the use of water, but also the roads and the rails.

“Multi-modal mass transportation is something that this State has signed onto and it requires us to use not only God’s gift – water – but also the roads and the rails which by His grace we will soon deliver to Lagos,” the Governor said, adding that the efficiency of transportation or lack of it determines the quality of life that people live.
