Abiodun Tobun, member of the Lagos State House of Assembly, representing Epe Constituency 1, has commended Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for his commitment to infrastructure development in Epe and across the state.

Mr Tobun gave the commendation during an interview in Epe on Tuesday.

He praised the governor’s exemplary leadership and infrastructure development initiatives, describing them as truly commendable.

He highlighted Epe’s development progress, including the nearly completed Lagos Lagferry Terminal and the ongoing expansion of the Abraham Adesanya-Eleko to Epe Expressway.

He also mentioned ongoing projects such as road maintenance, upgrading of the Lagos edifice in Epe, and other infrastructure initiatives.

“Governor Sanwo-Olu is a man of the people, extending projects across the board. All divisional areas and every part of the state are benefiting from this administration’s infrastructure development initiatives,” he said.

Mr Tobun, however, appealed to Mr Sanwo-Olu to help complete some pending projects in the community.

“These include the Lagos Lagferry Terminal in Epe, the Lagos housing project in Epe, the upgrading of Yes Agric state farm, Epe plywood, Lagos film city in the community, and other government pending projects across the division,” he said.

Mr Tobun noted that completing the projects would further cement the governor’s legacy as a leader and community builder who transformed Epe into a megacity and commercial hub.

He noted that all development across the state was in line with President Bola Tinubu’s transformation agenda.

He commended the Tinubu-led administration on infrastructure developments across the federation.

Mr Tobun assured his constituents that he would attract and facilitate more development in the Epe community.
