Orisunmibare Pakiotan community Ogbomoso groan over lack of bridge, dilapidated road, begs govt

Residents of Orisunmibare Pakiotan located behind Ayanyan Cattle Market/Ogbomoso GRA, along new Ogbomoso – Ilorin expressway, have appealed to the Oyo state and Ogbomoso North local governments to help in fixing the road linking their area to the main express road, which they say leads to Aaje Ologo.

They noted the community has become large and is even hosting a federal government project that is ongoing.

“We therefore call on both the state and Ogbomoso North local governments to come to our aid in fixing this road and bridge,” a community leader, Dr. Tobi Fajobi, told ogbomosoinsightonline.com, adding, “It is a new community with a large population and houses. The road is highly dilapidated, hence, hindering free flow of traffic, ideally we should spend just 2-4 minutes to the junction, but due to the poor state of the road we spend more than 15 minutes. The vehicle maintenance is also high as we visit mechanic workshops all the time.

“The alternative routes are not also reliable as they’re not in good conditions apart from being too long to ply. We therefore appeal to them to assist us by urgently intervening.”

Dr Fajobi stressed that “since the state government’s contractors are presently doing good jobs in Ogbomoso, rehabilitating and constructing new roads and bridges, our plight should be considered.”
