Adeyoye added that the road would help resolve the perennial flooding issues around Ogolonto, Omologede, Ipakodo and the environs, as well as promote effective intermodal and integrated systems.
In their contributions, stakeholders, which included: lawmakers and royal fathers, commended Governor Sanwo-Olu for fulfilling his promises to the people, and pleading that other roads, such as Agric-Ishawo, road be included in the government’s rehabilitation plans.
