Engr. Akinsanya noted that the graded roads would link communities together in the council areas and will enhance infrastructural and socio economic development while making life meaningful to the residents and further ease transportation of agricultural produce to markets.
“We embarked on this grading weeks back, before the yelutide seasons utilizing the opportunity of the dry season. It will no doubt, create better roads for ease of movement of people especially in rural areas. As I talk to you now, graders are working simultaneously in all the 20 local government areas. This is a further confirmation of the determination of Governor Dapo Abiodun to make life more meaningful to rural dwellers.
