Following the expiration of seven days ultimate given to Oyo State Government, residents affected by the Ibadan Circular Road Corridor project yesterday took to the streets to stage a peaceful protest.
The protesters, who carried placards, banners and posters, arrived at Ibadan end of Ibadan-Ife Road at about 10am, causing gridlock.

The protesters later marched through Idi-Ape to join their counterparts at the state secretariat, Agodi Ibadan, where the protest peaked.
The arrival of the protesters led to a temporary shutdown of the secretariat, as the protesters were denied access. Visitors and those who had business interest suffered delay while the protest lasted.
The demonstrators, who dispersed around 4:30pm, vowed to continue the protest until they get the attention of Governor Seyi Makinde.
