Today, I am delighted to announce the completion and commissioning of a project that began 12 years ago under one of my predecessors, Rauf Aregbesola (@raufaregbesola). This road, completed by our administration is the Pa (Oba) Adesoji Aderemi East Bypass, Ring Road, in Osogbo. This vital road project is divided into four segments, each connected by a roundabout or interchange within the Osogbo metropolis: 1.Osogbo/Iwo Road – Osogbo/Gbongan Road 2.Osogbo/Gbongan Road – Osogbo/Ilesa Road 3.Osogbo/Ilesa Road – Osogbo/Ibokun Road 4.Osogbo/Ibokun Road – Osogbo/Ikirun Road Upon assumption of office, our administration took the bull by the horns and completed the outstanding two segments: •Osogbo/Ilesa Road – Osogbo/Ibokun Road •Osogbo/Ibokun Road – Osogbo/Ikirun Road Also known as the Stadium Roundabout – Oke Baale Roundabout – Ilesa Garage Roundabout, this stretch has a total length of 6.0 km. The overall width of the road is 19.5 meters, featuring a 1.2-meter median and two carriageways, each 7.8 meters wide with a 1.5-meter shoulder. To enhance the road’s modern aesthetics, we have completed the landscaping of all four roundabouts, giving them a facelift. Additionally, the entire 6 km dual carriageway has been equipped with solar-powered street lights, ensuring that IMOLE (light) reaches every section of the road. This milestone underscores our administration’s commitment to infrastructure development and the fulfillment of promises made to the people of Osun State to complete all outstanding projects that will benefit our people. I appreciate my brother, the Executive Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde (@seyimakinde), for honoring our invitation to commission this important project.
