Oke Sefu Residents Urge Ogun State to Fix Bad Road

Residents of Oke Sefu community in the Ibafo area of Obafemi Owode Local Government Area, Ogun State, have urgently appealed to the state government for the rehabilitation of their access road, which is in a deplorable condition. They reported that the road's poor state has severely disrupted movement and affected their livelihoods, particularly during the rainy season when flooding, potholes, and slippery areas make it nearly impassable.

Abigail Damilola, a resident, expressed that the road becomes extremely difficult to navigate when it rains, causing discomfort and potential health risks for pregnant women and other commuters. Motorcycle rider Usman Sanni highlighted the increased risks and difficulties faced by riders and passengers due to the road's condition, stating that complaints from passengers are common.

Another rider, Adeola, noted that the bad road has raised transport costs and extended travel times, as they often have to take longer routes to avoid waterlogged areas. The community has been waiting for government intervention to address these issues.
