Agbado/Opeilu Road: Community Women Do Remedial Work, Collect Toll (Ogun State) by Godspowerpro: 8:05am On Sep 17, 2021
Pay attention
A police man stopped to pick two passengers- my humble self and a teacher.

The community women totaling about 15 had organized themselves since morning and hired male labor to level the road in their community with gravel and all manner of materials I couldn't begin to inquire about.

The plot thickens as the ladies mounted road blocks as tollgates for collecting developmental levy from motorists who were plying their residential streets so as to avoid the main roads which have been in worse conditions since the Chinese railways constructions began in Agbado

Not even the policeman was spared from paying “owo-ile” despite his initial stubbornness. The women were having none of it. Even as I took this picture one of the women, an acclaimed accountant graduate almost snatched my phone- an action that humbled me behave myself.

Ogun State governors are the worst of Lucifer creatures. From Gbenga Daniel to Ibikunle Amosun and to Dapo Abiodun. Lucifer created them while God was resting on the 7th day.

The roads in that axis have been bad even before Railway construction started. I had a friend at Ope-ilu, I had to stop visiting him about 7 years ago because of the life threatening roads in that axis. Railway construcion has not started then. Imagine how bad the roads will be now.

From Ishaga, once you pass Toyin junction going towards Agbado Crossing, you have entered Lucifer road to nowhere.

It looks like Ogun State is on autopilot. The governor doesn't appear to have been successful in any area of governance. Electricity, zero. Roads, worse. Enabling economy, non existence. To even give people 'hope' through the Commissioners of information and Works, he can't.

Quite understandable, Ogun Central (part of which is Agbado, Ifo, Akute, Sango, Ope-ilu) is the stronghold Senatorial district of his main political rival (Amosun, former governor of the state and present senator). But, as a matter of productivity, he needs to at least be non partisan for once and provide basic amenities.

The plight of the suffering residents should be ameliorated.

That road has been that way since when I was a kid as far back as 15-20 years ago before the railway construction started. Infact, Amosun’s regime made it worse when they demolished people’s houses and investment to construct a road they can’t finish.

We cannot wait for government to do all. Nothing wrong here. We need community effort to repair our roads not complaining all the time.

There are many ways to get public and government attention to this and not snapping the women. You for mind your business. Wetin concern you in displaying their photos. Because they spared you you now use that as an opportunity to release the pics. If they beat you and strip you naked you will calling lawyer, arguing violation of human rights and pleading for justice
