The Honourable Member representing Yagba East, West and Mopamuro Federal Constituency and the Chairman, House Committee on Customs & Excise, Hon. Leke Joseph Abejide has paid contractors to commence construction of the Iluagba- Isanlu Federal road. He said he has been making unrelenting efforts that the road from Aiyetoro to Egbe be constructed by the Federal Government and had also visited the Hon. Minister of Works, but it appears that paucity of funds from the Federal Government may delay the work, hence the need for his intervention.
Hon. Leke said after seeing the deplorable state of the road he concluded that the road is beyond palliative interventions but in need of total reconstruction. He thus mobilised contractors on 3rd of November 2021 to commence work on the 15km of the road from Iluagba to Isanlu. The facilities are currently being moved to the site for construction and expansion of the road.
In a statement released by Hon. Leke Abejide, the road will take about 50days to complete.
He reassured the constituents that his words about the development and progress of Yagba are binding and would never change and that whatever he promised he will fulfil without hesitation. He further emphasized that he would open up rural roads and hinterland across Yagba Federal Constituency before the expiration of his tenure.
