Abeokuta – Gov. Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun on Friday
said the state government had concluded plans to
construct a mega city that would gulp over N200 billion
in the state.
Amosun made this known in Ewekoro area of Ewekoro
Local Government in continuation of his local
government assessment tour.
The governor said that the mega city would cut across
Obafemi Owode, Ifo and Ewekoro Local Government
Areas.
He said his ambition was to develop the state and
exploit all the resources the state was blessed with for
the benefit of the people.
The governor disclosed that when completed, the mega
city would be the best in Nigeria and in Africa.
He added that the Presidency had approved the
construction of the abandoned airport at Alamala area
of the state.
Amosun said it had been his agenda to complete the
airport since his first day in office, saying it was not a
crime for Lagos State to have an airport and Ogun
having its own.
He said that work on perimetre fencing was ongoing at
the proposed site of the airport, adding that serious
work would start very soon.
The governor said that the airport would be of
international standard, bigger and better than the
proposed cargo airport and Murtala Mohammed
International Airport in Lagos.
Amosun promised the people that he would construct
Owo to Pere road and Itori township road in the local
government.
The governor, who promised that Ewekoro council
would experience more industrial presence, assured the
area of more roads.
He, however, advised the people to be law abiding and
avoid being used by politicians to perpetrate evil.

Impressive plans from a Governor who has delivered a lot already. With four more years, and the delivery of the Ogun State light rail network, I see Amosun turning Ogun into a great State to live and work in.

gbawe i can't believe u fell for this cheap scam. 200billion is not one naira. Even lagos would struggle to complete any project worth 200billion. How much is the total budget of ogun state. Then subtract recurrent expenditures. The capital expenditure is not up to 100b. This amosun is a daydreamer and gbawe is supporting anything apc both good or bad. Gbawe the sinsere9gerian of apc

white elephant project

That's what they all do: sign huge contracts just before leaving office so that they can put gbese for the coming administration.

And if they get re-elected, they don't go back to look in those huge contracts o

Wonder why they don't think of such projects until they come to the end of their tenure

About to embezzle money for election and after election

When you read pls try to comprehend and understand the message before forming your opinion.
Firstly, the project is a laudable one that will benefit the government and people of Ogun State. Considering the proximity of Ogun to Lagos State and the fact that many lagos residents are moving to Ogun State to live- in Ifo and Obafemi Owode LGAs, such project will also attract industrialization to the state. The project is not said to be completed in one year nor one term, he even won't complete it in his second term, but he will make considerable progress. Like Fashola, we hope the person that wl takeover in 2019 continue with the megacity project of ogun stata.

Where is the airport located ?

. And wt givs the assurance that he wld b re-elected come nxt year? He should tell us more on why the chicken cross the express.

forgiveness: Where is the airport located ?

He said Alamala.

There's no need to explain anything to these dimwits...

Amosun says he will do it, he delivers

Articul8: He said Alamala.

Is it different from the proposed Cargo airport along Iperu - Ilisian Remo road?

SLIDEwaxie: There's no need to explain anything to these dimwits...

Amosun says he will do it, he delivers

Thank you !!! This is why I said absolutely nothing to the "dimwits" even as some of their comments were directed at me. Amosun has been delivering superlatively so far, more so than probably 80% of Governors in Nigeria, and that is what normal and objective folks base their thinking and talk on. Not mindless negativity which is entirely ignorant of and dishonest to the reality on the ground.

Don't bother with those 'bad belle' clowns. If we are to honestly name 5 Nigerian governors performing the most and delivering superlative infrastructural development, increasing IGR aggressively, industrialising Nigerian States and attracting FDI then Amosun will be included in that list close to the top. He is one of the few who has earned the right to talk and be taken seriously by all Nigerians who love progress and are able to put sectional bias aside.

Ogun state (my state) have slept for far too long. Thank God things are changing. There is absolutely no reason for Ogun state to be where she is today giving the close proximity to Lagos. Good to know that the state now have a government that is putting things in place. My main hope and prayer for Ogun is to finally erase the state boundary line between herself and Lagos so she can absorb/attract many companies & institutions to herself and eventually get out of the league of civil service states. This will also be beneficial to Lagos in terms of congestion and over population.
