PRESS RELEASE
The Governor of Lagos, Mr Babajide Sanwo-Olu, on Monday sought the support of investors to make the approved Lekki–Epe International Airport, a reality.
He said the Lagos State Government is committed to partnering with the Federal Government and its agencies, as well as investors, in building a stronger, safer, more competitive aviation industry for Nigeria.
The Lekki-Epe International airport is an initiative of the Lagos State Government.
Governor Sanwo-Olu spoke during the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) National Aviation Conference held at Victoria Island, Lagos. The event was attended by President Bola Tinubu, who was represented by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume; Governors Hope Uzodinma (Imo), Babagana Zulum (Borno) and Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), represented by his deputy, Engr Noimot Salako-Oyedele; and Board Chairman of FAAN, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, among others.
Governor Sanwo-Olu said Lagos State will work hand-in-hand with all federal agencies to ensure that the Lekki–Epe International Airport and Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) become models of what is possible when federal and sub-national governments work in the same direction.
He said: “The Federal Government has granted approval to Lagos State to build a new international airport in the Ibeju–Lekki axis as a public-private partnership project.
“The airport is designed as a Code F-compliant facility, capable of handling the Airbus A380 and other wide-body aircraft, and is planned to sit on about 3,500 hectares of land, roughly 10 kilometres from the Lekki Free Trade Zone. The master plan provides for an initial capacity of five million passengers annually, with modular expansion as demand grows.
“Lekki–Epe International Airport is not a vanity project. It is a strategic response to decongesting MMIA and building resilience; positioning Lagos as West Africa’s preferred hub; unlocking new opportunities in MRO, training and aviation services; and supporting the Lekki industrial corridor, which is already home to the Lekki Deep Sea Port, the Free Trade Zone, the Dangote Refinery and Petrochemical Complex, and an emerging industrial and residential city.
“We are committed to working hand-in-hand with FAAN, NCAA and all federal agencies to ensure that the Lekki–Epe International Airport – and indeed MMIA – become models of what is possible when federal and sub-national governments pull in the same direction.
“Here in Lagos, together with the Federal Government and our partners, we are determined to create a future in which Nigerian aviation is safe, modern, competitive and inclusive – a future in which our airports are not bottlenecks, but bridges to opportunity,” he said.
Governor Sanwo-Olu also reiterated his administration’s commitment to creating an integrated mobility ecosystem in which rail, road, water and air transport are seamlessly connected in Lagos State.
He said his government over the last few years has made historic progress with the Lagos Rail Mass Transit Blue Line, running from Marina to Mile 2, and the Red Line, linking Agbado to Oyingbo, adding that it has also signed an MoU and unveiled plans for the Green Line, a 68-kilometre rail corridor from Marina to the Lekki Free Trade Zone.
“We are building an integrated, multi-modal transport backbone designed to move more than 20 million residents and the millions who come to do business with us,” he said.
Also speaking during the conference, Governors Uzodinma, Zulum and Abiodun highlighted aviation as a driver of economic growth, showcasing new airports, integrated transport systems, and investment opportunities across Imo, Borno and Ogun states.

Preparations are in top gear as the family of First Republic politician, nationalist and pioneering journalist, Ernest Sissei Ikoli, gets set to bid farewell to a woman of profound moral scruples, stickler for hard work and excellence, Elsie Ajayi Ikoli.
The burial activities, scheduled for November 27 – 30 in Lagos, are expected to attract traditional rulers, clergymen, business tycoons, top government functionaries, prominent lawyers, public affairs experts, diplomats and media professionals across the world.
Following the demise of Elsie Ajayi Ikoli on September 2, 2025 at the age of 93, the Ernest Sissei Ikoli Foundation released burial plans indicating that the burial ceremonies will take place between Friday, November 27, 2025 and Sunday, November, 30, 2025.
‘’The service of songs is scheduled to hold on Thursday, November 27, 2025 at the Citadel, 274, Kofo Abayomi Street, Victoria Island by 5:00pm. The funeral service will be held at The Salvation Army Church, 11 Odunlami Street, Lagos on Friday, November 28. This will be followed by internment. The entertainment of guests will take place at The Hall Event Centre, 16 Musa Yar’Adua Street, Victoria Island while Thanksgiving Service will take place on Sunday, November 30, 2025 at The Salvation Army Church, Lagos Island’’
The Ernest Ikoli Foundation Statement said Elsie Ajayi Ikoyi was a woman liked by everybody because she had dignity and integrity.
‘’Mama Elsie Ajayi Ikoli was a mother to all, a church servant and a study in humility.
The woman of the altar, industry and unyielding grace was born beneath the golden skies of Kaduna on June 24, 1932″
The statement highlighted Mama Ayo’s intellect, resilience, wisdom and sobriety.
“Mama Ayo’s mind was a boundless library. She devoured books not for ornament, but for illumination — a habit that would later become the quiet engine of her wisdom”
The statement issued in Lagos by the Executive Vice Chairman of the Ernest Ikoli Foundation, Chief Anthony George- Ikoli (SAN), highlighted professionalism, apprenticeship in nation-building and her role as Executive Assistant to the First Editor of Daily Times, Publisher of African Messenger, President of the Nigerian Youth Movement, one of the founders of Action Group (AG) and representative of Lagos in the Legislative Council, Ernest Ikoli.
“Mama Ayo moved with quiet precision behind the scenes of history. While Ernest drafted editorials that stirred the conscience of a colony awakening to freedom, Mama Ayo kept the rhythm of his days — managing correspondence, organizing schedules, shielding one of the activists of Nigeria’s political history from distraction”
Well known as a tireless and cheerful woman who could be counted on, the statement said Elsie avoided the spotlight that focused on Ernest Sissei Ikoli through his long political career.
“In her presence, chaos yielded to order. In her silence, purpose found its voice. She did not seek the spotlight, but stood steadfast in its penumbra — a dutiful woman, an unseen architect of legacy, ensuring that the man who helped forge Nigeria’s voice never lost his own”
The statement recalled the period when the mantle of the sole provider fell upon her shoulders.
“Mama wore it not as a burden, but as a covenant. She became a staff member and major distributor for Abbott Pharmaceuticals during its pioneering years in Nigeria — a time when Similac and Isomil were not just products, but promises whispered into the cribs of a hopeful, growing nation. With grit and grace, she out-distributed her peers, not through force, but through faithfulness – waking before dawn, returning long after dusk, her arms laden not just with formula tins, but with the nourishment of futures. In her, Abbott did not merely find a distributor — they found a disciple of diligence, a woman who treated every delivery as a divine assignment”
Widely respected for her innumerable contributions to the development of individuals and groups in Nigeria and the world at large, the statement emphasized courage in adversity and how life exacted its cruel toll on Elsie Ajayi Ikoli.
“The loss of two of her children carved a canyon in her soul — a grief so profound it could have extinguished her. But Mama Ayo did not retreat. She ascended. In the hallowed halls of the Salvation Army, Marina Corps, she entered into a sacred covenant with God — a vow of everlasting service. There, as Welfare Keeper of the Home League Unit, she washed altar linens until they gleamed like morning snow, believing that holiness resided not only in prayer, but in purity of preparation. She folded hope into every crease, ironed devotion into every hem. Her hands, which once balanced ledgers and stacked crates, now cradled communion cloths with the reverence of a priestess”.
The statement emphasized her role in the women’s ministries.
“Madam Elsie Ajayi Ikoli was a pillar in the Women’s and Mother’s Ministries, where her counsel was sought not for its volume, but for its virtue. And beyond the church walls, she poured her spirit into the Nembe Women Society (Lagos Branch) — gathering daughters of the Niger Delta in diaspora, weaving community from memory, stitching solidarity with stories. She did not merely lead — she mothered. She did not merely organize — she sanctified”.
Blessed with a rich and agile mind, the statement said Mama Ayo’s worldview was sculpted by sweat and scripture.
“Madam Elsie Ajayi Ikoli believed work was worship, excellence an echo of the divine, and failure not a full stop — but a comma in God’s longer sentence. Like the ant she so admired, she saw the cathedral in the crumb, the empire in the errand. She got up early, humming hymns to the rhythm of responsibility. She taught by presence: “Do it yourself, Do it well and Do it now.” Not as a command, but as a creed”.
The statement lavished praise on her for the quiet revolution.
“Her altar remains spotless. Her hands shape us. Her name — Elsie — “God’s Promise” — echoes in every life she lifted. Rest now, Mama. The Rock you carried has become the monument. The vision you served has become a victory. Well done, good and faithful servant”
Elsie Ajayi Ikoli will be remembered for her restlessness in terms of work and her persistence in excelling. She will also be remembered with respect.

Let us grieve no more. But find hope and strength that whatever our worries and cares may justifiably be on account of her glorious transition. We must give them over to God for He cares for us. God’s care closes every void. His comfort soothes every pain and His love trumps every loss.

In a society that is based on the rule of law and hierarchy, there should be no room for any serving army officer to comment on what happened between Wike and Yerima.
It is disgraceful for any general to intimidate the public by saying that the action is a threat to national security. This is what is wrong with the military in Nigeria. They think they are a government in waiting or they are a parallel government. This grandiosity is absurd.
These statements should never be tolerated. This shows that the Nigerian soldiers do not know how to subordinate themselves to civilian authority in a democratic society.
The chief of army staff should be fired. It is wrong for him to comment on this issue and also it is wrong for him to relate this issue to national security.
What the chief of army staff has done is insubordination that requires him to be fired. Any comment on this issue should be from the Minister of Defence, not the chief of army staff.
The position of the chief of army staff suggests that the military in Nigeria is above the law and Mr. Wike should take orders from the service chiefs. No sir. The service chief should defer to the minister who has the jurisdiction here. The service chiefs should be debriefed on the relationship of the army and the civilian authority. Some of them are still living in the past.
The days where they release soldiers into the street to terrorize the citizens should be behind us. It is unfortunate. The Army chief of staff thinks, might is right. His statement shows that he does not see himself as a subordinate to civilian authority. It also demonstrates that he has no respect for the rule of law and due process. He should resign or be fired from the army.
By his utterance, he has demonstrated that he has no respect for the civilian authority. People like him should not be in the army. Their thinking is anachronistic to our present time. Any officer having this kind of ego should go to the Sahel. We don’t need military people who think they are government in waiting.
In the days of yore, this Army chief would have released soldiers into the street to harass citizens. In a civilian regime, the army should be seen and not heard. The army in the past poured into the street when a drunken soldier was hit by a vehicle. Instead of rendering help, they started beating people and burning cars. None of those soldiers were disciplined during the military regimes.
No soldier was punished for the rape and destruction that took place at Fela’s house. For more than three days, soldiers at Jaji poured into the street, beat up and destroyed cars belonging to citizens because a drunken soldier was hit by a vehicle.
It is our responsibility as citizens and leaders to change the mindset of the Nigerian military that has been distorted by military rule. Their primary duty is to defend the Republic, with arms, from external aggression.
Their constant aggression against the Nigerian citizens must be stopped. The Nigerian military goes into villages and shoots without asking questions.
Recently they went to a village in Delta state, terrorized and killed villagers who were sleeping. At this point of writing, no soldier involved in that exercise has been disciplined.
Enough is enough. In our democracy, we should hear from the minister of defence, not the Chief of Army staff whose language is a veiled threat to our democracy.
He should be fired. What he said is disrespectful to the minister.
What every Nigerian should understand is that no matter how they feel about that altercation, Officer Yerima is not supposed to be at that site. His presence there was unofficial and illegal.
Would Officer Yerima have gone there if the place does not belong to a retired general? Do serving soldiers take orders from retired officers? Would Officer Yerima and his platoon be polite if the occupant they met was not the minister but a citizen minding his business? They would have given him the Nigeria army treatment which comprises assault and false imprisonment which is the MO of the Nigerian army.
We must stop this abuse of citizens by members of the Nigerian army. They are enlisted to serve and protect Nigerians. Due to breakdown of military discipline during the dark days of military dictatorship, they consider themselves above the law and want to resolve legal issues with intimidation and assault. The breakdown of military discipline also coincided with citizens being mentally disarmed to use the law for protection.
What the soldiers do to citizens in Nigeria is an aberration. They call us bloody civilians. Why? If we want our democracy to survive, we must teach our people their rights. Under normal circumstances, in peacetime, enlisted men should not be seen in the cities unless they are there for special duties with clear rules of engagement.
What was the rule of engagement for Officer Yerima? What national assignment was he carrying out at that location? I sincerely believe that in spite of his reputation. Mr Wike went to this level because he has seen how uniform officers don’t think the law applies to them. He may have also noticed that the generals in the army are not subordinating themselves to civilian authorities in the process of our democratic governance.
It is time we start thinking of a reserve army. We can start by making all youth corps members undergo compulsory military training for six months. The only reason why the army threatens our national security with coup is because they have a monopoly of weapons.
For our democracy to grow, we must abolish this monopoly. The citizens should have the right to bear arms. Enough is enough. Respect begets Respect.

During the handover ceremony at GSS Gwarinpa Life Camp, the school environment was filled with excitement as students and staff explored the new robotics facility.
Project Coordinator for Region Central and North at Julius Berger, Engr. Dr. Amodu Ismaila, expressed appreciation for the warm relationship between the company and the Gwarinpa community. He noted that the school environment has become more comfortable and conducive for learning. According to him, Gwarinpa Secondary School has long been a neighbour to the company’s camp, and over the years, the school has continued to educate their children as well as other students in the area.
Dr. Ismaila said that the company as a good corporate citizen has had to be contracted to execute many projects in the area adding that through these various projects, Julius Berger remains both a good neighbour and a committed partner to the communities it serves.
Engr. Dr. Amodu Ismaila explained that, in selecting GSS the school as the starting point for the initiative, is to kick start the project. Adding that the Managing Director was strongly in support of the CSR activity at GSS, Gwarinpa.

The School Principal, Abubakar Ajayi, expressed his gratitude to the company for its continuous and sustained contribution to the growth of the school. He continued: “let me end it by saying that what you have done is a motivation for other organisations to copy. It is a good example. Since Julius Berger is close to me, you are about the only person or organisation I can easily run to. We will be coming back, from time to time. Before I came here, when I took over the school, I saw the set of students furniture that Julius Berger donated, very beautiful and durable. We hope that this partnership will continue”.
Members of Julius Berger’s delegation to the event also spent time interacting with the students, talking about the importance of learning basic technology skills and encouraging them to make good use of the new laboratory amidst a clear sense of excitement as students explored the equipment.

By supporting initiatives like this, Julius Berger continues to play an important role in developing the next generation of curious thinkers and problem-solvers. Also, through actions like these, the company is reaffirming its commitment to community growth and its belief that empowering students today helps build a brighter, stronger Nigeria tomorrow.
