Light indeed cannot be
comprehended by darkness when they meet. As a matter of fact, they cannot even
meet because from experience, once darkness perceives light from afar, it
indeed flees.
Light is undeniably
powerful that’s why people who are in love will use phrases such as “she lights
up my world”, “she lit up in excitement as soon as she saw him” and other phrases
as such. There is always a sense of security whenever you are in a well-lit
environment as everything and everyone become visible.
And so I felt really
good the other day while out for the night (which was unusual for me), I realised
that I wasn’t in a hurry to get back home as it felt as though there was no
point rushing back home like I would usually do whenever I find myself out as nearly all the places which were usually dark
at about that time of the night were all lit up with street lights and then it occurred
to me “aha! So this is what Governor Ambode’s ‘light up Lagos’ project is all
about”. Was I impressed? Yes I was and I hope this spreads to all other parts
of Lagos soon.
From the on goings,
given the roads under construction, it is expected that they would be completed
with necessary road infrastructure which includes lighting, walkways and
properly built drainages amongst others.
Until now, I have never
had to say a good word about Politicians as they rarely make good their promises.
But for this present Lagos state Governor, Akinwunmi Ambode who one can aptly
describe as a jolly good fellow that does not only enjoy being called a youth
at heart but also an unrepentant performer. We look forward to seeing more
visible footprints, development wise across the length and breadth of Lagos,
Nigeria’s centre of excellence.
