Kayode Akinmade, Special Adviser to the Governor on Media said, “Tending news on social media about Ogun State having bad roads is politically motivated and it was orchestrated by the enemies of our Government and our State. This was made known by the special adviser while seaking to BusinessDay on behalf of Governor Dapo Abiodun on the trending news on social media as regards bad roads in the State.

“We all know that it’s raining and there is flood everywhere in the world and we can’t isolate Ogun State. Besides those fringes that were mentioned on social media there are bad roads, I can tell you that Ogun State has little or no record of people living there.

“People are just moving into border areas without informing the Government of their presence. Government is not rocket science, it’s about planning and budgeting and it will be very difficult for the Government to have proper developmental planning for such areas where the influx of people was not properly done.

“These people just come into Ogun State without proper planning. Many people who are living on the fringes of our State are working and paying their taxes to Lagos State and by so doing it will be difficult for the Government to plan for development.

“Let me tell you that there are no local government areas in Ogun State that Governor Dapo Abiodun and Ogun State Government have not constructed a minimum of two roads each the last five years.

“The bridges of Alagbole, Akure and other areas they are talking about are not needed, they are a waste of resources, if those resources were spent on roads by the past Administration, it would be a different story by now. Besides, those roads have been paid for by the past Administration; they were paid for upfront by the past Administration.”
