The project is a follow up scheme for Oba Adeboruwa Estate also situated along Igbogbo Baiyeku road. It was initiated to provide more homes for Lagosians residing in Ikorodu axis.
However, the Lagos State Governor, Sanwo Olu has said that there is nothing wrong in inviting the Nigerian Army to help stop vandalism and violence by hoodlums in the State.
This was revealed by Sanwo-Olu Chief Press Secretary, Gbenga Akosile, during a telephone interview with Newsmen.
He spoke in reaction to a statement issued by the Army which revealed that the Lagos State Government requested their help at the Lekki toll gate where EndSARS protesters are said to have been shot.

Akosile said: “The angle should actually be that the military has come out to deny that they shot at anybody. There has been the accusation saying that they shot, they killed.
“If you read that statement very well, the Army is saying that they did not shoot at civilians and that what they did, followed strictly the rule of engagement.
“And then, if you read the statement very well, the angle of Lagos State government, you understand. There is nothing wrong to say, lawlessness, anarchy has come and the military should be called to intervene. There is nothing wrong there, there is nothing wrong there.”
