Federal Government Awards #7.39billion For Reconstruction Of Akure-ilesha Road by Rikidony(m): 8:57pm On Nov 16, 2013 |
Akure -The Federal Government has awarded a N7.39-billion contract for the rehabilitation of the 66-kilometre Akure-Ilesha highway. The Minister of Works, Mr Mike Onolememen, disclosed this in Akure on Friday when he inaugurated the project. The minister, who was represented by Mr Oluyemi Oguntominiyi, the Director of Highways (South-West), Federal Ministry of Works, said that the project would be completed within 21 months. Onolememen emphasised the government’s commitment to fulfilling its obligations toward the infrastructural development of the country. “Government is investing on this road to provide relief to the people and promote economic activities among communities and neighbouring states,’’ he said. The minister urged the contractor, Kopek Construction Limited, to adhere strictly to the terms of the contract. Earlier, Gov. Rauf Aregbesola of Osun and Gov. Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State pledged to support efforts to develop the infrastructure of their states. Mr Issam Feghali, the Managing Director of Kopek Construction Limited, assured the Federal Government that the project would be completed within the stipulated time. “We assure you of quality work, in accordance with the specifications in the bill of quantity; we hope to complete the work before the 21 months timeframe,” he said. The road reconstruction project starts from the Oke Ijebu Street intersection in Akure, Ondo State, and terminates at the Iloko-Ijesa junction in Ilesa, Osun.

That road has been hell for some years now. It would have been a short cut from Benin to Ibadan crossing many towns in Southwest. |

Akure to Ilesha is just a portion of the road. I think it should be from Benin to Ilesa. Ilesa to Ife is okay and dualized.. |

This is a good one from the FG if truly it'll be constructed. And I wish they reconstruct that of Ibadan-Ife-Ilesha right lane, that lane needs urgent attention. Abagworo: That road has been hell for some years now. It would have been a short cut from Benin to Ibadan crossing many towns in Southwest. Many! How?! I think it passes through just four major towns/cities: Akure, Ilesha, Ile-Ife and Ibadan. But it will connect more if Aregbe actually complete the dualization of Osogbo-gbogan junction road that links Ibadan-Ife express, because it will link Ede and Iwo. Making it to connect 7 towns/cities. |

Paul John: This is a good one from the FG if truly it'll be constructed. And I wish they reconstruct that of Ibadan-Ife-Ilesha right lane, that lane needs urgent attention. Isn't 4 many? However it passes more than 4 towns. Ife, Akure and Ilesa are just the larger ones. Remember towns like Osu, Owo and Ikire. |

Whao this is a good news. The road was supposed to be completed during Obasanjo era but the stubborn man refused to complete the construction despite the pleas from some Yoruba Elders. I'll be glad and praise Jonathan's government when the construction actually starts. Who says Jonathan wouldn't rule till 2019, anyway it depends on the candidate APC fields. Osun A Dara. God Bless Nigeria. |
