President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is set to inaugurate several major infrastructure and development projects during a two-day working visit to Lagos, including the highly anticipated Ojota-Opebi Link Bridge.
The announcement was made by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Lagos State Governor, Gboyega Akosile, who disclosed details of the President’s itinerary.
“Please join the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, to welcome President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to a two-day working visit to our dear state.
“While here, the President will commission some of our iconic, transformative, and legacy projects such as the Ojota-Opebi link bridge,” Akosile stated.
He added, “The Ojota-Opebi link bridge is ready! Yes, it will be flagged off this week by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR. This is a transformational and strategic project delivered by Governor Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu. It is a promise made and well delivered!”
The visit is scheduled to begin on Wednesday, April 8, and end on Thursday, April 9, 2026.
Beyond the bridge, the President is expected to inaugurate other major projects, including the Lagos State Geographic Information Service and the Lagos Multi-Agency Building, both located in Alausa.
He will also launch the Tolu Schools Complex in Ajegunle, the Maracana Stadium featuring 19 mini-football pitches, and the Lagos food logistics hub in Abijo.
The Tolu Schools Complex, one of the flagship projects, comprises 36 schools across primary, junior, and senior secondary levels, spread over 11.7 hectares and designed to accommodate over 20,000 students.
Governor Sanwo-Olu, who recently inspected the facility, described it as “the largest school community in Africa”.
“This complex brings together 36 schools across primary, junior, and senior secondary levels, spread over 11.7 hectares. It is set to serve over 20,000 students and stands as the largest school community in Africa, with well-equipped classrooms, football fields, basketball courts, and other modern facilities,” he said.
