He said: "We are here to be part of the celebration and this has really been an eventful one.

"The quality of the toilet is very clean; the environment is green and relaxing. I must really commend the effort of the Lagos State Governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode and the executive. if this is what they are doing with our taxes, it's worth it. More kudos to him.This is something that makes Lagos State to stand out among the other States in Nigeria," Dauda said.

Also, another fun seeker, Mrs Folashade Olaoye said the awesome experience she was subjected to at the park, made her to be proud to be a mother.

"I am proud to be a mother. It was fun today; I met new people and enjoyed myself in this very nice environment. I want to thank the organisers of this event and the Lagos State Government for this nice environment," she said.

On her part, Mrs Ajayi Oluwayemisi said the experience would linger for long in her mind, as she had fun to the fullest.

"I am happy to be alive today to be among the living. This is a very great park and the environment is very neat for the people to enjoy themselves," she said.
