In 2021, no fewer than 6,205 persons died in road accidents as the country recorded 13,027 road crashes, according to Nigeria’s National Bureau of Statistics (NBS). One of the many roads on which these accidents occur regularly is the Olomi-Ayegun-Olojuoro-Ijebu Igbo road in Oyo State. A contract for the construction of this road was facilitated by the former member of the House of Representatives representing Oluyole Federal constituency, Olusumbo Samson Olugbemi in 2018, according to MAP news.

How Ogun State Monarch, Oba Adesegun’s Company Abandoned Major Road Project After Collecting N950millionOne of the many roads on which these accidents occur regularly is the Olomi-Ayegun-Olojuoro-Ijebu Igbo road in Oyo State.

A contract for the construction of this road was facilitated by the former member of the House of Representatives representing Oluyole Federal constituency, Olusumbo Samson Olugbemi in 2018, according to MAP news. Since 2018, the contract continues to get new budgetary allocation with the total amount budgeted over the years totaling one billion naira.

The tarred portion of the road stops at the Fatusi River area where one of the two bridges has collapsed, thereby posing threats to the lives of the road users. The former Chairman of Ateji community, Ayegun in Ibadan, Mr. Moruf Oladimeji said the poor condition of the road coupled with unfavorable weather conditions has caused the residents and business owners in the area a lot of pain.

“When you spend several months cultivating, planting and doing everything but by the time you harvest, you cannot make profit on your farm produce simply because the road is bad. Our vehicles end up breaking down on the road with goods inside them,” Mr. Alani said.
