Following CityNews report on willful damages to 3rd Mainland Bridge, at the Ilubirin exit, Lagos,  the developer has moved to make amends.

Early Thursday morning, workers were seen reinstating ducting on the parapet in preparation for casting. Form-work was also put in place.

In a statement, lawyers to the developer said: “Following the directives of the Ministry of Works and Housing, the Developer of the Ilubirin project has commenced the repairs of the damaged parapet along the Ilubirin/Simpson section of the Third Mainland Bridge.
