Popular cyclist Ed Wonder has urged the Lagos State government to do something about the airport road in Lagos, which is becoming an eyesore.
In a video on X, he lamented that such shouldn’t be the situation because the airport road is the first road plied by visitors, tourist and diplomats when they first step into Nigeria
He wrote, “No billboard, no investment summit, no tourism campaign can compete with what people see with their own eyes the moment they land. A dirty airport road tells visitors wrongly that Lagos is chaotic, unserious, and careless with its environment...READ FULL; FROM THE SOURCE.
“The painful part is that this problem is AVOIDABLE.
“Airport Road should be one of the most protected, most maintained corridors in the state. Illegal dumping should be impossible there.
“Waste management should be airtight. Monitoring should be constant.
“If we want to be taken seriously on the global stage, then the basics must be respected.
“You don’t welcome guests through a dirty front door.
“The question is simple:
“If we cannot keep the road that welcomes the world into Lagos clean, what message are we truly sending about who we are?”
