“Motorists are enjoined to use alternative routes as follows.
“Motorists from Falomo inward Ahmadu Bello on Akin Adesola Street are urged to turn right into Adeola Odeku to link Eletu Ogabi Street to access Kasumu Ekemode Street to Bishop Oluwole Street to connect Akin Adesola Street and continue their journey.
“Motorists from Ahmadu Bello Way to Falomo Bridge via Akin Adesola Street are implored to turn right and connect Karimu Kotun Street to link Sanusi Fafunwa Street to access Akin Adesola for their desired destination.
