Sanwo-Olu, accompanied by the Deputy Governor, Dr Kadir Obafemi Hamzat, gave this assurance during a working visit to the Adiyan Water Works site, expressing satisfaction with the progress of the ongoing construction.

The governor disclosed that the project was currently at 80 per cent completion, emphasising his administration’s unwavering determination to ensure its timely completion before the end of his tenure in fulfilment of his promise to provide Lagosians with better access to potable water.
