Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has made clear that no region of the state has been left out of his administration’s developmental initiatives in the 2025-2027 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and the 2025 Budget.
According to him, projects were dispersed fairly across the three Senatorial Districts by the 2024 budget.
Governor Dapo Abiodun announced this at a town hall meeting on the 2025-2027 Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and 2025 Budget held at the Bisi Rodipe Event Center in Ijebu-Ode.
Abiodun thanked all stakeholders for their contributions during deliberations on the 2024 budget and announced that his government has approved the rehabilitation of key highways in the Ogun East Senatorial District.
According to the governor, the roads are as follows: Imoro-Imegun-Opopo, Igbeba-Eid prayer ground to Prison, Imoru road in Ijebu-Ode, and Odelewu-Ladeshi-Ishiwo.
Governor Abiodun, who was represented by Chief Economic Adviser and Commissioner for Finance, Mr Dapo Okubadejo, stated that, despite the economic constraints on its resources, his government has begun construction of over 64 kilometres of rural roads around the state.
Governor Abiodun pointed out that the construction of the rural roads is a critical step in his administration’s continuous commitment to extending infrastructural development for simple rural access and increased agricultural output in the state.
According to the Governor:
“In continuation of our infrastructural development, our administration recently approved the reconstruction of the Imoro-Imegun-Opopo road in Ijebu-North-East, Igbeba road to Eid praying ground to Prison, Imoru road in Ijebu-Ode, and Odelewu-Ladeshi-Ishiwo road.
“Despite the fiscal pressures and increased government spending, infrastructural investments to promote rural development and the economy have equally gained attention.
“Our administration is constructing 64 kilometres of rural roads in select local government areas in the state, including within the Ijebu division,” Governor Abiodun said.
