The road was renamed after the late medical doctor based on her role in preventing Ebola epidemic in the country.
The road, located along Ahmadu Bello Way, close to the Nigerian Air Force Conference Centre, was renamed after Adedovah, about six years after she died from the disease in Lagos.
She paid the supreme price on August 19, 2014, while she was managing a Liberian-American who brought the virus to Nigeria.
She was the most senior doctor who participated in managing Patrick Sawyer at the First Consultant Hospital, Lagos.
The late nurse insisted on keeping Sawyer in the hospital despite pressure from the patient and his country for him to be freed.
