The Secretariat Road linking Ikuomola Road and the Road behind Ilaje High School all in Igbokoda, Ilaje LG headquarters.

I am grateful that God Almighty used me to initiate and finish these two (2) projects for the use of our people. The two roads are of strategic importance to Igbokoda community and her inhabitants.

It was a bold step that reinforced our philosophy of greater good for greater number of persons. There is no doubt that my friend Hon. Soji Ayenuro started the road behind Ilaje High School, Igbokoda with the undying hope of finishing it before an abrupt end of his tenure as the Caretaker Chairman, Ilaje Local Govt Council. Nevertheless, the road is done and dusted and the people are in full appreciation of the job done.

I am aware that when the land is happy with our interventions, the people will correspondingly be glad and so the gods would equally be at peace with us.

I therefore promise to do more extensively for our people with more aggression, resourcefulness and devoted cooperation of our people in Ilaje/Ese-odo federal constituency.

September 26, 2023 we flagged off the construction of a 400-metre Civic Centre Road at Agwobiri, Arogbo, as part of our commitment towards advancing the development of our region and we shall not rest on our oars until it is completed.

Late Agagu constructed this road, Mimiko asphalted and completed the road. But when some part began to give way and there was a deep gully at the southern edge of the bridge shown here, I fixed it .

The signboard in these pictures will tell you which agency of government assisted in fixing the road. I have received so many calls of commendation from our people. More work to be done
