Contractors handling the 107-kilometer Ilara-Ijoun- Eggua- Oja Odan- Ilase Road in Ogun West Senatorial district have moved to site and commence construction work on Section 1 of the road.
The road, which was facilitated by Senator Solomon Adeola (APC, Ogun West) in the 2024 Budget, cuts across 4 Local Government Areas of the senatorial district namely Imeko Afon, Yewa North, Ipokia and Yewa South LGAs and is a major infrastructure development along the international borders of Nigeria with Benin Republic.
Expressing his joy at the commencement of work on the road that has been abandoned for decades, Senator Adeola appreciated the role of the President, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun, for their supportive roles in seeing to the commencement of work on the road adding that the synergy and complementary working relationships at the senatorial, state and federal levels is yielding positive results for the APC Renewed Hope Agenda for the people of Ogun State.
“During my senatorial campaign tour, I had a cause to transverse some portions of this road to access towns like Igan Alade, Eggua and Ijoun and it was a despicable sight to see all vehicles and my fellow human beings completely covered with red dust as to be unrecognizable. It was a pathetic sight that I pledged to ensure its reversal for good. I am grateful that my solicitations to the President and the governor of my state elicited support for my inclusion of the project in the Appropriation Act of 2024” he stated.
The road contract that was divided into 4 Sections for ease of implementation cuts across towns like Ilara and Ata in Imeko Afon LGA; Daramola, Tobolo, Aworo, Iyana Agbede, Ijale Ketu, Ibiyan, Ijoun, Tata, Imoto, Igan Alade, Eggua, Iselu, Ile Igbooro and Oja Odan in Yewa North LGA; Odan Itoro, Ibola Fagbohun, Abodein Yewa South LGA and Ifonyintedo, Alari, Koko and Ilase in Ipokia LGA.
Senator Adeola was optimistic that the project will be completed on or before the end of 2027 as a major boost to the economy of Ogun West Senatorial district and indeed Ogun state adding that it is in tandem with the national development policy of border areas of Nigeria.
