The Eti-Osa Local Government Area of Lagos State has announced the renaming of six major streets in the area, a move it says is aimed at promoting local heritage and improving urban navigation.
The announcement was made in a statement released on Friday, August 1, 2025, by the Council Manager, Mrs. Oluwakemi Oshun, who stated that the changes take immediate effect.
According to the council, the following streets have been renamed:
- Tony Amadasun Road, Igbo Efon → Chief Femi Pedro Road
- Dr. Udo Wogu Drive, Chevy View → Chief Adebola Dosunmu Drive
- Augusta Orji Street, Aro Ologolo Road → Alhaji Adio Mayegun Street
- Chike Mba Close, Osapa London → Hon. Sikiru Ashorota Close
- Ugochukwu Orji Street, Igbo Efon → Barr Wale Sanni Street
- Fubara Dublin Green Street, Igbo Efon → Rafiu Olukolu Street
The council urged residents, business owners, and the general public to update their records accordingly to reflect the new names.
“This initiative aims to promote the cultural and historical significance of local street names while enhancing navigation, urban planning, and identity management,” the statement read.
This development comes just days after Bariga Local Government renamed the popular Charly Boy bus stop to Olamide Baddo Bus Stop in honour of the iconic musician.
