The Lagos State government is putting finishing touches to Timberville, Owu-Ikosi, Agbowa, in Ikorodu, where it plans to relocate sawmillers from the Okobaba waterfront in Ebute Meta area of the state.
Idris Salako, the commissioner for physical planning and urban development, accompanied by Ganiyu Ayuba, the special adviser on urban development, and Abiola Kosegbe, the permanent secretary, in the ministry, undertook the inspection of the new site to assess the level of work.
According to Salako, in a statement signed by Mukaila Sanusi, deputy director, public affairs, of the ministry, all neccessary facilities at Tamberville are being provided to facilitate a hitch-free wood processing and sales.
