7 Months After, Ikeja BRT Bus Terminal Dismantled (Photos)


The much celebrated Ikeja BRT Bus Terminal seems to be in the news again and this time for the wrong news. AutoReportNG has been seeing tweets and mentions about the Ikeja BRT Bus been a shadow of itself and that the Lagos State Govt seems to have abandoned the project and start to dismantle the terminal.

We can confirm that truly the much celebrated Ikeja BRT Bus Terminal has been dismantled, demolished. The buses have been moved and so also the canopies, the ticketing stalls have been closed.

According to insiders, we are meant to understand that there need to be some finishing works on this terminal that the commission was hurriedly done for Pres. Buhari to the commission that's why no activity has taken place since it was commissioned for use.

We hope and pray this is true for renovation purposes.

The facility, which is sitting on 10,000 square meters land space is equipped with Intelligent Transport System (ITS), Fully Air-conditioned terminal, Food Court, Shops, Toilets, ATM Gallery, Free Wi-Fi, Electronically Controlled shades, among others.

Pres. Mohammed Buhari in March 2018 commissioned this world-class terminal amidst fanfare and ever since the terminal is yet to come alive.

These are the pictures when it was initially commissioned...

I haven't seen any decaying structure here, all I see is non use of the facility. Fake news carriers

Very observant of you sir. For your information - the Terminal is not being "dismantled or demolished!" That is a very absurd assertion. What is going on is the parking configuration for the buses is being re-structured to accommodate the high capacity vehicles that LASG has procured. The passenger loading and off-loading bays are being restructured from saw-tooth to linear arrangement for faster and better circulation of the buses and passengers, and this involves removing & re-arranging the interlocking stones. The terminal will soon commence operations along others in Yaba, Oyingbo,TBS, Agege, Ojota, etc. as part of the Lagos Bus Reform Program
Please endeavor to clarify the true situation of things before posting your articles to maintain credibility. Thank you
