IBADAN — President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has flagged off the reconstruction and dualisation of the 58-kilometre Ibadan–Ijebu-Ode Road linking Oyo and Ogun states, while approving the immediate reconstruction and dualisation of the Abeokuta–Ibadan Road .
The projects, according to the President, are part of the Federal Government’s efforts to strengthen transportation networks, deepen economic integration and address critical infrastructure deficits across the South-West.
CDA News Nigeria gathered that speaking at the flag-off ceremony held at the open field of Legacy Estate, Idi-Ape, Ibadan, President Tinubu, who was represented by Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, said the projects demonstrated his administration’s commitment to improving strategic economic corridors and delivering infrastructure that directly impacts the lives of Nigerians.
CDA News Nigeria reports that President Tinubu described the Ibadan–Ijebu-Ode corridor as a major economic artery connecting Ibadan, Ijebu-Ode and the Lekki economic axis, with links to other parts of the South-West and the country. He noted that the road would facilitate the movement of goods, services and people across the region, thereby unlocking economic opportunities and fostering growth.
The projects reflect the administration’s ongoing infrastructure drive, which has also seen the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and other road construction projects receive attention as part of the Renewed Hope Agenda of the Tinubu administration.
