The announcement was made during a strategic meeting of community representatives, where Dr Fola Abati, Chairman of the Forum, detailed preparations for the commemorative event. “The 20th Memorial Anniversary is not merely about looking back with sorrow,” Dr Abati said. “Restoring the Lisa Memorial Arcade would honour the departed with dignity, while rehabilitating the access road would alleviate the daily burden of thousands of residents who commute between Ogun and Lagos. Dr Abati observed that this intervention has significantly reduced annual loss of lives caused by flooding in the area. The 20th anniversary observance is scheduled to take place on 22 October 2025, as communities across Lisa prepare to honour the victims and call for renewed attention to infrastructure and heritage preservation.
