Over 1,700 kilometres of roads have been constructed, reconstructed, and rehabilitated across Ogun State, reaching all 20 local government areas under the administration of Governor Abiodun. That figure, cited by Mr. Akinmade, speaks to a government that has been moving, literally, to connect communities across the state.
Mr. Akinmade also credited Governor Abiodun with fostering peace in Ogun, pointing to the road infrastructure work as part of a broader effort to improve life for residents. When roads reach people, so does everything else, trade, healthcare, opportunity.
Whether the numbers on the ground match the numbers in the press release is a conversation Ogun residents are best placed to have. But with an administration making bold infrastructure claims, the road ahead, so to speak, will be watched closely.
