The Lagos State Government on Thursday said it would hold a 12-hours street carnival on the popular Oba Akran Avenue, Ikeja, on Dec.3, ahead of the Yuletide. The Special Adviser to Gov.Akinwunmi Ambode on Tourism, Arts and Culture, Mrs Adebimpe Akinsola, at a news conference in Alausa, said that the overall aim of the carnival was to boost the economy of the state.
Akinsola said that the event, formerly known as Lagos Street party, had metamorphosed into a carnival which would take place on the whole stretch of Oba Akran Road from noon till midnight.
She assured that arrangements were in place to ensure maximum security and traffic control. Akinsola said that alternative routes would be provided to motorists so that they do not experience pains as a result of the closure.
