 Marissa Bode was 'denied boarding a flight because I'm disabled' Marissa Bode, best known for her role in Wicked, shared on TikTok that she was recently denied boarding a Southern Airways flight because of her wheelchair.  She explained that when she asked gate agents for help locating her boarding pass, they questioned whether she could stand.  After she said no, they told her she could not board since all of the airline’s planes require passengers to climb stairs.  Bode described the experience as “blatant segregation,” criticizing the airline for failing to accommodate disabled travelers.

GOV. ABIODUN DECLARED A STATE OF EMERGENCY ON LAGOS-SANGO OTA-ABEOKUTA ROAD.(PHOTOS).#PRESS RELEASE.


During his inspection tour, Governor Dapo Abiodun declared a state of emergency on the Lagos-Sango Ota-Abeokuta Road and also stated that his administration is giving the Federal Government a 2-week window to intervene on this road. At it's expiration, the Governor noted that the State Government would, putting the safety and comfort of its citizens first, have no choice than to immediately intervene through total  reconstruction.

The governor was also at the Owode-Ilaro Road where he was made to understand that the contractor handling the Owode-Iwoye end of the road, RAJCOM is not living up to expectations. Upon hearing this, Prince Dapo Abiodun immediately revoked their contract due to the slow pace of work, and awarded it to CCECC who will now handle all the roadworks. 

Governor Abiodun also inspected some sections of the Ojodu-Abiodun-Akute-Oke Aro-Agbado-Ijoko-Sango Road where he promised that workers will move to site in the next three weeks so as to begin reconstruction of the deplorable road.
