Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State said his administration has constructed over 600 kilometres of road since his inception in office.
Abiodun noted that these roads were the fulfilment of promises made during his campaign.
The governor, who spoke on Tuesday while commissioning a newly constructed hospital road in Ogijo, Sagamu local government area of the state, noted that the event was to kickstart a series of projects commissioning to mark the first year of his second term in office.
Abiodun, while boasting that his administration would not make empty promises, added that more roads would be commissioned at Iperu and Ilaro during the week.
According to the governor, the Ogijo community is one of the industrial areas of the state as it enjoys gas reticulation, stating that his administration has solved the electricity challenges that affected the community for decades through the provision of transformers and other electric accessories.
“This community is very important to us; apart from being a border town, it is also an industrial area. I can assure you that this community will experience more development.
“I call on the Kabiyesi to work with the local government chairman, community development associations, and all relevant stakeholders and come up with projects according to their priority for immediate execution,” he said.
Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure Ade Akinsanya said the commissioning of the Hospital Road is a testimony to the commitment of the state government to ensuring infrastructural development in all parts of the state.
Ologijo of Ogijoland, Oba Kezeem Gbadamosi, represented the Akarigbo of Remoland, Oba Babatunde Ajayi, appreciated the state government for ensuring that the road was well constructed with a good drainage system.
However, he called the governor’s attention to other deplorable roads in the area.
