The administration of hardworking Hon. Adeniyi Saliu, the executive chairman of Eredo Local Council Development Area, has opened an alternative route to Ijebu-Ode. This was after the recent flooding on the Epe/Ijebu-Ode express way, due to the ongoing construction works around the Lagos and Ogun States boundaries.
The alternative route is channeled from Odo-Ayan besides Omojoda Market, through Odo-Ajogun Community thereby linking the Lagos and Ogun States boundaries along Ijebu-Ode road.
According to a statement from his media spokesman, Prince ‘Seyi Keshiro, made available to Global Excellence, Hon. Saliu said “government is about services to the people and so, it becomes necessary to provide an alternative road for Epe/Ijebu-Ode road users, as long as the construction works last to reduce their travelling time and agony on the construction area.”
The council boss appeals to all the road users on that corridor to bear with the government, assures them that the project would be completed as soon as possible.
Saliu also barred the youth in the area from collecting tolls from motorists, saying government is about the people and warned that anyone caught will be made to face the law.
Hon. Saliu disclosed this through the Vice Chairman who also doubles as the Supervisor for Works, Hon. W. Taiwo, while on inspection tour of the alternative route.
With the Vice Chairman was Hon. Babatunde Awonaike, the Supervisor for Health who also hails from Odo-Ayan community.
