THE Deputy National Chairman (South) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja, has commended the Oyo State governor, Mr Seyi Makinde, for the dualisation of the 7.2-kilometre Idi-Ape-BashorunAkobo-Odogbo Road and construction of the General Gas flyover.
Arapaja gave the commendation in a statement signed by his personal assistant, Bamitale Ibrahim, in a reaction to the inauguration of the projects which was performed by the Ekiti State governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, in Ibadan, on Wednesday.
The PDP chieftain said Governor Makinde’s effort to strengthen road network across the state showed that the governor was not toying with the lives of the citizens of the state.
According to him, the present administration is striving to ensure safe and secure roads in every nook and cranny of the state.
He added that the Idi ApeBasorun-Akobo-Odogbo Barracks Road dualisation and the General Gas flyover projects had relieved motorists and commuters from the nightmare they were having before.
He said the projects would also improve the economic growth of the state and make it attractive to investors and local and international tourists.
Arapaja implored the people of the state to reciprocate the gesture of the governor by electing him for second term.
