Amosun Inspects First Ijebu Ode Flyover


altOgun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, on Sunday inspected the flyovers under construction in Ijebu Ode and urged the construction firm to redouble its effort in order to complete the projects in a record time.

The governor also monitored the monthly environmental sanitation where he urged law enforcement officers to arrest and prosecute offenders of the exercise in accordance with the law. The two flyovers, according to a statement by media aide of the governor, Funmi Wakama, are located at Mobalufon junction, along Sagamu-Benin road and Bobasua/Lagos Garage.

When completed, the Mobalufon bridge will end the regular carnage on the expressway as vehicles moving to Ijebu Ode will now use the flyover instead of risking head-on collision with those coming from the Benin end of the expressway. The flyover descends into the 6-lane international standard Moblufon-Folagbade-Imepe-Ibadan Road being constructed by the current administration.

Commuters along the Ondo-Benin Road will not experience any traffic gridlock at Bobasua/Lagos Garage as another flyover is being constructed at the T-junction. While addressing residents of Ijebu Ode, Amosun promised to transform the old city through provision of infrastructural facilities.

He expressed the hope that the bridges would be ready for inauguration before the 2013 Ojude Oba festival. The governor also inspected the 107km Ilara-Ijoun-Oja Odan-Ilase road, which cuts across four local councils in Ogun West senatorial district.
