AHEAD of the March 11 governorship elections in Lagos State, the Guber candidate of the Labour Party, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, on Sunday, January 29, 2023, disclosed that he will end the agbero system, which he claimed, had created a lot of safety hazards in the state.

Rhodes-Vivour stated this during The Platform debate organised for governorship candidates in Lagos on Sunday.

“On road safety in Lagos state, we will not accept the Agbero system, which has created a lot of safety hazards in the state.

“We need to train our road enforcement agents and we will also need to ensure that the state set its clear policy on not accepting the Agbero system. All of these you can only enforce where a system is moving smoothly," he said.

On a separate platform, Rhodes-Vivour, while outlining his plans on the aspects of infrastructural development, promised to build as many bridges as possible that would connect Amuwo-Odofin to Alimosho; parts of Badagry to Ojo, etc.

He also declared that his government would make sure that there is going to be a lot more interconnection of Lagos State so that every part of Lagos will feel that it is part of Lagos.
