mainland bridge

The Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr Obafemi Hamzat, says the construction of Fourth Mainland Bridge will start in the first quarter of 2021.

Hamzat said this while discussing Gov. Babajide Sanwo-Olu/Dr Obafemi Hamzat’s administration in the last one year on an online show tagged: ”Covinspiration” on Tuesday.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the show was moderated by Dayo Israel, a UN Special Representative and British Council Global Change-maker.

Hamzat noted that the 4th Mainland bridge was central to the present administration as the state was aggressively pursuing various infrastructural renewal programme to make life abundant for the residents.

The deputy governor said the bridge was an important programme for the administration, saying that its completion would help break traffic gridlock and ease transportation in the state.

He said: “The project is key for our administration and we flagged the construction of regional roads within VGC two days ago, the project has been awarded to Hi-Tech Company.

“First Quarter of next year (2021), we will be able to start. Early next year, construction will start on the 4th Mainland Bridge.

“Regional Road is to be done for the survival of the Fourth Mainland Bridge to help us break away traffic from the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Regional road will increase the viability of the 4th Mainland Bridge.”

According to him, that there is hope that by November or December, plans will have been concluded for work to begin.

According to him, 32 Consultiums put in interest in the bid and the government had been able to reduce them to nine.

He described the project as huge, which would involve a lot of money, adding that the government was looking for partnerships with private organisations.

Hamzat, who noted that the government had been funding aggressively road infrastructure, said that the Lagos -Badagry Expressway would unlock the tourism potential in Badagry.

He assured that the administration will continue to grow better, especially in terms of infrastructure while also dealing with deficits.

Speaking on the management of traffic in the state, the deputy governor said that the administration had been able to reduce traffic lockjam by 15 per cent to 20 per cent.

“In order to expand roads and give room for free vehicular movements, we have been able to remove some of the roundabouts which include Allen Roundabout, Ikotun Roundabout, Lekki, Abraham Adesanya Roundabouts are all gone.

“We are fixing major roads and reducing traffic congestion and making sure that drainages are cleared,” he said.

Hamzat said that the government was commited to mass transportation, saying that Oshodi-Abule Egba, BRT corridor would soon commence for mass movement along the corridor.

According to him, the government is also “funding aggressively” the Blue Line Rail for mass movement of people.

He said that 600 buses procured by the government had been cleared at the port, saying that the government was also procuring small buses for its ‘Last Mile’ transport programme.

Hamzat said that the government was working to have the buses manufactured in the state to create employment for the residents.

On water transportation, Hamzat said that the government had procured ferries to move people along the waterways.

The deputy governor said that the Okada ban had not only reduced Okada-related accidents from about 21 monthly to one, but had also reduced crime rates in the state.

“Before the ban, on the average of 21 lives were lost monthly to due to Okada accident but after the ban it has reduced drastically to one.

“Crime has also reduced in the state, the NDLEA (The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency) report says that narcotics are transported through the use of Okada as a means of transportation.

“There was need to ban Okada, especially at this period with the outbreak of COVID-19. There is no way one can maintain social distancing on Okada,” he said.

The deputy governor emphasised the need for data for efficient planning and delivery in the state, saying that data gathering would allow transparency, planning and efficient record keeping.

“It (data) is the new currency for us and it drives all that we are doing. We should be able to have a database in order to manage the citizens better. Data would help for proper planning and documentation purposes.

“For example in education, there is the need to check the number of population in each area in order to plan accordingly. It makes the system run faster and more efficiently.

“Data is key, that is why we are pushing LASRA(Lagos State Residents Registration Agency) to get information about our citizens. It is also necessary for us to have a robust data governance and protection,” he said.

  9. Roger Clark allegedly served as Ross Ulbricht’s Red Room consigliere.
    Friday, the feds announced his extradition from Thailand.

    It’s been nearly five years considering that the FBI surrounded Ross Ulbricht in the science fiction section of
    a San Francisco library, arrested him, and grabbed the laptop from which he had
    run the dark web drug bazaar known as the Silk Road. Ulbricht proceeded trial
    in a New York courtroom, and is currently serving a life sentence without parole.

    But even now, the Silk Road saga still hasn’t ended: Half 10 years after Ulbricht’s arrest, his alleged advisor, mentor and right-hand
    man Roger Clark will finally face a US court, too.

    On Friday, the FBI, IRS, DHS, and prosecutors in the Southern District of New
    York announced the extradition of 56-year-old Canadian man Roger Clark from the Thai jail cell to New
    York to face newly unsealed costs for his role in Silk Road’s operation. The
    indictment accuses Clark, who allegedly went by the pseudonyms Variety Jones, Cimon, and Plural
    of Mongoose in his role as Silk Road’s consigliere, of crimes ranging from narcotics trafficking to money laundering.
    But even those charges don’t capture the outsize role Clark is believed
    to own played in building and managing the Silk Road,
    from security audits to marketing, and even reportedly
    encouraging Ulbricht to make use of violence
    to keep his empire.
    “As Ulbricht’s right-hand man, Roger Clark allegedly advised him of methods to thwart police force throughout the operation of the illegal ploy, pocketing a huge selection of tens and thousands of dollars in the process,” writes FBI assistant director William Sweeney in a press statement.
    “Today’s extradition of Roger Clark implies that despite alleged attempts to use under the radar, he was never out of our reach.”
    Clark was arrested significantly more than two and a half years ago by Thai police, and since been held in a Bangkok prison. When a reporter for Ars Technica interviewed him there in 2016, he claimed that police had found only his encrypted laptops—unlike Ulbricht, whose PC was seized before he could close the lid and enable its encryption—and that as a result, police force had no evidence against him of any crimes. “They don’t really have shit on me,
    ” Clark said at the time. “I’m not going [to the US].
    It’s an impossible circumstance.
