President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday, inaugurated some key projects in Ogun State during his one-day visit to the state.
The projects are the 42-kilometer Sagamu Interchange-Abeokuta Road, the 14-kilometer Ijebu-Ode-Mojoda-Epe Expressway, and the Gateway City Monument respectively.
Others include two housing estates for low, medium, and high-income earners at Kobape and Oke-Mosan in Abeokuta, the state capital.
The President was received at the Sagamu Interchange by Governor Dapo Abiodun and his colleagues from the Southwest.
The governors who joined Abiodun in welcoming the president are Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos); Gboyega Oyetola (Osun); Kayode Fayemi (Ekiti); Oyo State Deputy Governor Rauf Olaniyan, who stood in for Governor Seyi Makinde.
Buhari lauded Prince Abiodun for delivering trail-blazing projects amid the prevailing circumstances occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic.
He tagged Abiodun as the “performing Governor of Nigeria’s Gateway State and a worthy example of ‘promises made, promises kept.”
The President noted that the projects he inaugurated could not have materialized without the state government’s huge investment and commitment to the security of lives and property.
