The honourable member representing Iseyin/Itesiwaju State Constituency while granting an interview today to with the crew of ODUDUWA NEWS commended the executive governor of Oyo State, Engr Seyi Makinde on the recent award of Iseyin/Ogbomosho road project to the contractors.
Dele Adeola said, “the construction of Iseyin/Ogbomosho road is a blessing to Ogbomosho, Iseyin, Oke-Ogun and the entire Oyo North Senatorial District. It is a jinx breaking project by Makinde-led administration having been neglected for a decade as this will open up the agro-economic area of the zone, it will bring unity to the Senatorial District, allowing more investors to invest in the zone. Particularly, linking investment opportunities from the Northern part of Nigeria and Oyo North region.”
“I use this medium to commend the governor for deeming it fit in awarding the road project to contractors at appropriate time in order to speed up economic development of the region as envisioned. Recall that at the inception of my administration as a Representative from the zone, we had a debate at the State Assembly on the need to reconstruct the road and we passed a resolution urging the executive arm to open more roads in the state, rehabilitating the damaged ones and the completion of abandoned road projects.
“I am elated that today, the road project has been finally handed over to the contractors, this will in no doubt reshape the socio-economic outlook of the entire Oke-Ogun.
“We cannot overlook the importance of the road which includes improvement of agricultural activities, establishment of more agro-allied industries along the road, opening up of market opportunities for the northerners and international communities and lastly the creation of jobs for the teeming youths of the state.”
The Honourable, while appreciating his constituents for the trust reposed in him, on behalf of Iseyin and the entire Oyo North Senatorial District thanks the Executive Governor of Oyo State for the recent award of contract of the laudable project. He however expresses his confidence in Seyi Makinde-led administration and vows to uphold his vision in achieving a new Oyo State.
