Umahi: Lagos-Calabar Highway to Link East-West Road Through Edo

Works Minister David Umahi says the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway will not continue along the coast beyond Lagos and Ogun states. The project is expected to take an inland route through Edo State and connect with the East-West Road. Umahi described the revised alignment as an engineering decision approved by President Bola Tinubu. The change has renewed debate over the original route, the project’s cost and the communities expected to benefit from the highway.
