Governor Akinwumi Ambode on Wednesday said that Lagos State Government would ensure that the dilapidated National Stadium would be turned into an enduring world class facility instead of being a waste.
Ambode made the assertion when he spoke with newsmen after a joint inspection tour of the National Stadium, purportedly abandoned about 11 years ago, with the Minister of Youth and Sports, Solomon Dalung.
That the concession bid for the national edifice was first muted when Ambode paid a condolence visit to Dalung in Abuja on February 18.
