Nigeria, Sept. 7 -- Less than 24 hours after broadcast journalist Deji Bademosi erected a billboard to highlight a deadly open manhole along the Ikeja axis leading to Murtala Muhammed International Airport, the Lagos State Government deployed officials to cover the hazard.

In an updated video posted on his Facebook page on Sunday, Mr Badmus stated that the administration of Babajide Sanwo-Olu has deployed the staff of Lagos State Public Works Corporation (LSPWC) to fix the manhole.

"I'm back at the spot to give an update. Less than 24 hours after we put out that sign, the Lagos State Government has deployed its officials-likely from the public works-to cover the manhole. As you can see behind me, the manhole is being covered."

He prais...
