Agbara is in Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area of Ogun State.

Engr. Olasukanmi Okusaga, the Director of Rail Transport, Lagos State Metropolitan Area Transportation Authority (LAMATA), stated this on Tuesday in Lagos.

Okusaga was on an inspection tour of the ongoing construction of the Blue Line Phase 2 project being handled by China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC).
