• Says work ongoing on four major highways in Ifo-Sango Ota axis
• ‘Ota-Lafenwa-Ayetoro Road captured in proposed Budget 2026’

Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has reassured residents that no part of the state will be left undeveloped. He promised that ongoing infrastructure upgrade would spread to all communities across the three senatorial districts.

According to a statement by the Governor’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Kayode Akinmade, the government is simultaneously working on four major highways in the Ifo, Sango-Ota and Idiroko axis of the state.

He, however, dismissed as mischief the claim in some certain quarters that the government had left some bad portions on other roads unattended to, saying that the administration has plans to spread development as dividends of democracy to all parts, including the roads in Lafenwa-Itele Ayetoro areas of the state.

The special adviser, who noted that the 140-kilometre Abeokuta-Lagos Expressway is being fixed by the state government despite being a federal road, said that the Sango-Idi-Iroko Road, also a Federal Government road, is under construction by the state government.

Akinmade further said that the government is attending to the Sango-Idiroko Highway, while it had completed about 22 kilometres between Ijoko, Agbado and Alagbole road.

He said: “While recognising the rights of the good people of Ogun State to continue to demand for the dividends of democracy, the government warned the public to be wary of the antics of opposition politicians and their quest to call a dog a bad name in order to hang it.

“In its determination to run a transparent and people-driven government, the Dapo Abiodun-led administration will never fail to respond to public scrutiny. However, we are not unaware of the ongoing move by political detractors to tarnish the image of the government by whipping up unnecessary incitements.”
