For those who live around Agbara, Lusada area in Ogun State, they will tell you that life can’t be worse than roads in these areas. Agbara is a manufacturing hub, one of the money-spinning hub for both the federal and state government, IGR from these factories alone can confidentially fund the budget of some states in Nigeria but it’s a pity that roads leading to their factories are more of a death trap.
People living at Agbara have cried out to the governor of Ogun State to repair the road in this area as trailers, tankers and other private vehicles ply these road daily, these road has been neglected for years with promises from both the state and federal to do something. It got to a stage that residents have to embark on a peaceful protest last year but this does not move any of the state agencies. At a point when the people are beginning to accept their fate, the state government seem to remember them and has begun a reconstruction work on the Agbara-Lusada Road.
In a press release written by Mr. Ajayi Olatubosun, who is the Community Liaison Officer for Igbesa, he explained that the project was reconstructed by the Guangdong Community within the Free Trade Zone as part of their( 1)corporate social responsibility to the community and (2)as a PPP agreement on Built Operate and transfer(BOT) under the approval of the State Government having a bilateral ” Memorandum of Understandings ” ( MoU).
