Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, on Monday, said his administration had executed 52 projects in Imeko Afon and 76 projects in Yewa North in the past two years.
Abiodun said this while flagging off the campaign for the local government elections in Imeko Afon and Yewa North Local Government Areas.
The Governor promised to reconstruct deplorable roads, including Abeokuta-Olorunda-Imeko road.
Addressing the people of both council areas, the governor said the chief among the projects in Imeko-Afon is the construction of Oke Ola Road in Imeko.
He said the reconstruction of the Rounder-Olorunda-Imeko Road would ease the hardship experienced by travelers on the road.
He assured the people that the road would be nearing completion next time he would be visiting the LGAs.
“This government belongs to you, continue to support us in prayers. On my way from Abeokuta, en route Lafenwa to Rounda and Olorunda, until I got here, I saw how deplorable the road is. I feel your pains.
“I want to promise you today that before I come here next, this road would almost have been completed,” he stated.
While inspecting the 2.4 kilometers Ago-Oshoffa Road in Imeko town, Abiodun assured the people of the area that the road would soon be completed as laying of asphalt is scheduled to commence in the next four weeks.
The Governor, who affirmed the supremacy of the party in the local government, however, called on the people of the area to come out in large numbers to show their supremacy in the forthcoming LG elections by ensuring victory for the party’s chairmanship and councillorship candidates.
“We have seen that our party, the APC, is the only party here. We could have decided against coming here for this event because we know Imeko-Afon belongs to us, but our coming here has given us the opportunity to see the state of the road here.
“On the 24th of July, two weeks and two days from now, I want you to go out en-masse and vote, even though, we know that Imeko-Afon and Yewa belong to us, I want you to come out to vote and let them know through your votes that Imeko-Afon and Yewa truly belong to us, let us all come out and vote in Yahya Fadipe and Gabriel,” the Governor stated.
Earlier, the Chairman of the Ogun Free Trade Zone and a chieftain of the APC in the state, Gboyega Nasir Isiaka, appreciated the Abiodun’s administration for his immense work in the state.
He called on the people to troop out and elect the candidates of the party at the forthcoming local government elections.
Isiaka, while calling on the chairmanship and councillorship candidates to see their emergence as the will of God, charged other contestants who could not pick the ticket of the party to continue to support the party.
