They complained that accident and long time hold-up always occurred on the road, pleading that the state government should come to their aid.

Our reporter who visited the area observed that some citizens were trekking homes or offices as buses were in a state of bumper to bumper. Buses could not go either forward or backward.

A bus driver Mr. Kazeem Amoo said from Ladipo to Mushin, the road is worse. He added that vehicles spoil on that road because of the situation of the road. He moved further to say from Fatai Atere roundabout to Kapper, the road is nothing to write home about.

“Accidents happen there all the time. And also from Ladipo roundabout to Olanibi, the condition of the road is worse. Trailers fall at that point and we are begging the government to repair the roads before it leads to the loss of lives. It should not be until the houses get burnt before they do something about it. These three roads that I mentioned, Mushin Local Government should please help us with their renovation,” he said “we are very happy that you came to ask us about this. They should help us and may God also help them.”

Another motorist, Mr. Sikirullahi Ahmod said: “Ojekunle to Olawuyi is very bad. If you see the condition of the road, it is as if there were no government.
“Our government should renovate these roads for us to look more motorable,” he said.

The State Government Agency has said those aforementioned roads are still under construction that coronavirus pandemic has hindered the contractor from the completion of the project.
