The Bariga Local Council Development Area (LCDA) of Lagos State has officially renamed several major roads and landmarks within the council in recognition of top figures who have contributed significantly to the community, state, and nation.

One of the affected areas is the popular Charly Boy bus stop, which has now been renamed Baddo Bus Stop.

The announcement was made on Friday, July 25, 2025, by the outgoing Chairman of Bariga LCDA, Kolade David Alabi, during his final day in office.
