“IN the words of Michael Dynes, after decades of neglect and under-investment, Nigerian infrastructure - from roads to railways, from electricity generation to water supplies - is in need of a drastic overhaul and expansion. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the West African giant’s commercial capital, Lagos, where an estimated 18 million people struggle to cope on a daily basis with crumbling roads, antiquated transport services, hopelessly inadequate power generation and a critical shortfall of clean water supplies and housing stock.”
This is a good discussion of the very really challenges and the new infrastructure initiatives in Lagos being put forth by the state’s dynamic new governor, Babatunde Raji Fashola.
