In keeping with his promise to be back in a week's time to monitor progress in the efforts to address the problem of traffic gridlock in Apapa, Lagos State governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola again visited the Tin Can Port road and Creek road among others calling on the federal government to live up to its responsibility by restoring the infrastructural damage which, he says, is threatening to destroy the area.
