Govt assures clerics on Agbado-Oke Aro- Akute road

The Ogun State Government said it is already working on the rehabilitation of Agbado-Oke Aro-Akute Road.

The government was reacting to a video that captured 500 pastors urging Governor Dapo Abiodun to rehabilitate the road in fulfillment of his re-election pledge.

In a statement issued by the State Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Ade Akinsanya, the state government affirmed that it had never shirked its responsibilities in the area of road construction, having constructed over 600 kilometres of roads since coming on board in 2019.

It added that it had already completed half of the Alagbole-Sango Ota Road and that the remaining axis was captured in this year’s budget.

It, however, added that the slight delay experienced in executing the project was due to budgetary issues and the spike in the cost of construction materials, saying that the constraints were being addressed.
