Mr Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria , is praying the court to order the removal of all obstructions on the Oshodi-Apapa Expressway, including the “deadly” trailers and tankers, and to repair the road.
He is seeking a declaration that the respondents’ failure to remove obstructions on the road and to repair and maintain it is illegal and unconstitutional as it constitutes a threat to his fundamental right to life. The applicant said the deplorable state of the expressway “has in recent times caused multiple deaths through recurring accidents”.
Mr Falana said last February while travelling back to his Ikeja office after a prison visit, he almost had an accident whilst navigating through a big gallop on the road and almost hit an oncoming vehicle.
Shey you see the problem with out judiciary now. I think this matter should be treated urgently. Haba
