Lagos is unarguably one of the most beautiful cities in Africa and even in the world. However, many people cannot the immaculate beauty embedded in Lagos. Hence, the Lagos state government deemed it fit to come-up with a project that will help Lagosian and the world at large to better appreciate the beauty which this great city posses.

The Light-up Lagos project which is headed by the deputy governor, Oluranti Adebule, is now in the sixth phase. Below are pictures of rare scenes that many tend to be too preoccupied to notice.

The Project which has become a pivotal initiative in the last eight months of the present administration is expected to spread across the length and breadth of the state. 

So far, the project has seen the illumination of Third mainland bridge, Ikorodu road, Ikorodu town, parts of Agege motor road inward Oshodi, Allen roundabout, CIPM road, Agidingbi road, Ogunnusi road, Wempco road, Metal box road, College road in Ogba, Hakeem Balogun road, MKO Abiola Gardens inwards Oworonshoki and other major streets across the metropolis. 

​Aside improving motorists’ vision at night, the ‘Light Up Lagos’ Project has in no small way prevented criminal activities by hoodlums who hitherto take advantage of the dark to rob unsuspecting citizens of their possession. 

The initiative which has received commendation from residents, according to Governor Ambode is beyond street lights, but the ultimate goal is to create Independent Power Project (IPP) clusters across strategic locations in the state so as to bring about 24 hours power supply in every nook and crannies of the state within the next two years.
