@historicallagos: COMMISSIONING OF THE FIRST PHASE OF THE LEKKI PENINSULA SCHEME II ROAD NETWORK ,JUNE 2002 Twenty-four years ago, this moment marked a major milestone in the transformation of the Lekki Peninsula from a largely developing corridor into one of Lagos’ most sought-after urban districts. In June 2002, the Lagos State Government commissioned the first phase of the Network of Roads in Lekki Peninsula Scheme II, a project designed to unlock the enormous residential, commercial, and economic potential of the peninsula. At the time, many parts of Lekki were still sparsely populated, with vast stretches of undeveloped land, sandy roads, and ambitious plans for the future. The road network provided critical infrastructure that would lay the foundation for the rapid growth that followed. Improved accessibility attracted homeowners, investors, businesses, schools, shopping centres, and real estate developers, helping to shape the Lekki we know today. Looking back at this footage, it is fascinating to see how a road project that seemed routine at the time became part of a much larger story,the emergence of Lekki as one of Africa’s fastest-growing urban corridors. What was once a vision on paper has evolved into a thriving hub of commerce, luxury housing, entertainment, and innovation. For those who remember Lekki in the early 2000s, this is more than a road commissioning; it is a reminder of how infrastructure can completely transform a landscape and redefine the future of a city. Do you remember what Lekki looked like in 2002? #HistoricalLagos #LekkiPeninsula #ThrowbackLagos #UrbanDevelopment #NigeriaHistory
