APC chieftain writes Akeredolu over roads in Akure
AN OPEN LETTER TO ARAKUNRIN AKEREDOLU OF ONDO STATE.Dear Arakunrin,I’m writing you this Letter because I am in the same party APC with you and for the goodly manner with which you have handled issues of Security in our dear state.Indeed your efforts on Security of lives and properties which is your first responsibility to the citizens of Ondo is highly commendable.Only yesterday the 16th of July 2022, I had the opportunity of passing through Owo township which I haven’t passed through in some few months. The site was amazing seeing the dualization of the the link road between Eco Bank roundabout in Owo and Ikare junction. Kudos to Mr. Governor!The most interesting thing is that the Contractor and his team remained in the rain as they carried out the Earthwork. That is indeed fantastic!However, I must remind Arakunrin that whatever is good for the goose is also good for the gander. How come are Contractors in Owo, your hometown are working and those in the State Capital are not? Why is it that all the roads in Akure have become impassable and those under Construction abandoned?Majorly the following roads under construction have become so terrible that people who live along those routes wake up to heartaches because of the damages caused daily to their vehicles. As a matter of fact, to say that roads are terrible is an understatement! The fear of rainy season has become the beginning of wisdom along these routes. The roads are:1. Shoprite – Oda Road: The less than 5km road has been under construction for the last 4yrs.2. Oluwatuyi roundabout to Ijoka Road3. Road Block to Oke OduAside i⁷these roads, most other roads in Akure are impassable. Some of them are:1. Oke Aro2. Owe Akala to Oke Aro titun3. Araromi to Stadium to Onyearugbulem market.4. Fanibi junction to champion5. Agagu road to Ilesha garage6. Leo to Ayedun7. High School to Express8. Sijuade to Oluwatuyi9. Sijuade to Jide mark10. Ondo road Con Oil to Danjuma11. Danjuma to Oke Aro Titun12. Owe Akala to Oshinle13. I sinking Market to Danjuma14. Ado junction to Igoba to IjuAbove are some of the roads that I can highlight here.For posterity sake, I appeal to you to as a matter of urgency do something about all these roads. You may set up a body and saddle them with the responsiblity of maintaining a zero-pothole across the Akure metropolis.Thanking you for your understanding.Yours truly,J. J. Alabi writes from Akure
