    ‘Roads Are Not Parking Lots For Articulated Vehicles’ – Elliot Appeals To Lagos Residents

    Desmond Elliot, a third-term member of the Lagos State House of Assembly, has asked Lagosians to discourage roadside parking in the state.

    The actor-turned-politician stated this when Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu commissioned four roads in the Amuwo Odofin Local Government Area of the state on Tuesday.

    Elliot, who represents Surulere Constituency and serves as Chairman of the House Committee on Works, asked Lagosians to own the roads in the state and disallow articulated vehicles from turning them into parking lots.

    The lawmaker said, “I remember being chairman, the House Committee on Works and Infrastructure, I came here alongside the SA (special adviser) of infrastructure as well and we saw the works that have happened in two years.

    “We are so glad. I am particularly excited about the fact that we’ve seen fantastic improvement.

    “This road, ladies and gentlemen, is not parking spaces. It is not for containers to park or for articulated vehicles, it is meant for people to move; it is meant for people to benefit.

    “Please, can we discourage (roadside parking)? Own your roads. I speak to all residents: own your roads, discourage parking of vehicles by the roadside so that people can enjoy the benefit of democracy.”

    The event was also attended by Sanwo-Olu’s deputy, Kadri Hamzat; Lagos Assembly Speaker, Mojisola Meranda; traditional rulers as well as members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
