When the original contract was conceived, so many other considerations were not included in the project. \u201cSo, with the augmentation government also extended the completion date to 48 months,\u201d he said. The project which commenced in <\/span><b>Lagos<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> through <\/span><b>Shagamu interchange<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has been significantly completed. \u201c11.6km on both bound has been substantially completed. We have also completed another six kilometres on both lanes aside from a four kilometres bridge. \u201cPeople used to sleep on this road in recent years but it\u2019s no longer the case now.
