Oyo State government has reiterated its commitment to complete the ongoing infrastructure projects before the end of the administration in 2027.
The Deputy Governor, Bayo Lawal, gave the assurance during a visit to the projects under the Rural Access and Agricultural Marketing Project (RAAMP).
The monitoring covers two major project sites: the 8.24 km Okudu-Oyada-FRSC Road in Atisbo and Saki West local government areas; and the 21.953 km Oloko-Oyo-Orita Aloba Road, in Iseyin Local Government Area.
Lawal emphasised that the Governor Seyi Makinde’s Omotuntun 2.0 Agenda is focused on delivering quality infrastructure that will enhance rural connectivity, boost agricultural productivity, and improve residents’ standard of living.
He said: “Governor Seyi Makinde’s vision is clear and deliberate; no project will be abandoned. Every ongoing road construction and rural development initiative will be completed and delivered to the people of Oyo State before the expiration of this administration in 2027.”
