On that day, the long-sought relief from choking vehicular gridlocks finally came the way of residents in the axis as Governor Sanwo-Olu inaugurated the Pen Cinema Bridge and five major road networks in the area.
Former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who was a special guest at the event, described the project as âneeded catalystâ for the resuscitation of economic activities on the axis.

Lagos State Governor, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, is scheduled to flag off the iconic 1.4 kilometre Pen Cinema FlyOver Bridge, Agege, tomorrow, Friday, March 5, 2021.
Recall that the bridge was initially scheduled to be commissioned about last week but was rescheduled due to exigencies.
The Agege Pen Cinema Flyover project started in 2017 under the last administration of Akinwunmi Ambode.
Sanwo-Olu in line with his promise of completing all ongoing projects across the state visited the project site in January 2020 for assessment.
Sanwo-Olu again visited the project site in December 2020 to ensure that all was in order for its commissioning in the best possible time.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Friday, commissioned the Pen Cinema Bridge and five arterial road networks in the area, formally opening the infrastructure for public use.
The commissioning marked the fulfillment of another campaign promise made by Sanwo-Olu to residents, who daily endured pain in commuting within the axis in the last four years.
All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, had the honour to inaugurate the projects, which he described as “needed catalyst” for the resuscitation of economic activities on the axis.
