Lagos suspends closing of Marine Bridge for repairs

Moshood Adebayo, Lagos

The Lagos State Government has rescinded its decision to close the popular Marine Bridge for repairs until further notice.

The Commissioner for Transportation, Dr Frederic Oladeinde, in a statement, hinged the decision on the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which has recorded 81 confirmed cases in Nigeria.
