Temporary Closure of Ipakodo Ferry Terminal and Offering of Two Alternative Jetties/Terminals

 



In light of the escalating water hyacinth presence obstructing ferry navigation at the Ipakodo Ferry Terminal, we hereby announce the temporary suspension of ferry operations at the Ikorodu Terminal until further notice. This decision is crucial to ensuring the safety of passengers and operators amid the challenges posed by the water hyacinth.

We extend our gratitude for your cooperation during this temporary closure. To maintain safety, we strongly advise against attempting access or utilizing the waterways via the Ikorodu Terminal. LASWA, in collaboration with EQUUS, is actively addressing the water hyacinth issue along the Ikorodu Terminal, with a commitment to resolving it promptly.

In response to this disruption, the Ibeshe Terminal has been opened as an alternative, and we have collaborated with the Nigerian Navy and the Association of Boat Operators Ikorodu Division to temporarily utilize the Majidun Jetty. Both the Ibeshe Terminal and Majidun Jetty are available for use during this period. Additionally, plans are underway to open another jetty in the Ikorodu axis before the end of the year, further enhancing transportation options.

We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we collectively strive to build and maintain safe, clean, and prosperous inland waterways. 


**Signed,**  

LASWA MANAGEMENT

That being said, we need to clear the air on this superiority issue being bandied around by a lot of people without the sense of history. Some say The Alaafin is the supreme-most king in Yoruba land, while others say it is the Ooni. I would try to give an abridged version of the history of the two and let you, the YoruByte reader make your own decision. So, it is an agreed fact that the progenitor of the Yoruba race is Oduduwa. Fact undisputed! It also known that Oduduwa had only one child, Okanbi. Fact Unchallenged! Furthermore, It is universally agreed that Okanbi had seven children, Fact Unc...
