Oba Akinfalabi of Orile-Owu Calls for Road Improvements

Oba Daud Akinfalabi Lagbedu, the traditional ruler of Orile-Owu in Ayedaade Local Government Area of Osun State, has made a public appeal to both the Osun State and federal governments for the rehabilitation of key roads, specifically the one linking Apomu to Orile-Owu and Araromi Owu to Ijebu Igbo in Ogun State. This request was made during the celebrations for his 10th coronation anniversary and the annual Anlugbua Festival.

The monarch emphasized that improving these roads would significantly boost agricultural activities and, consequently, the economy of the community and Nigeria. He also called on Owu sons and daughters, both locally and in the diaspora, to support their ancestral home.

Oba Akinfalabi highlighted the town's potential for agricultural and investment opportunities due to its rich human and natural resources. He noted his achievements in renovating the Orile-Owu palace, constructing a town hall, and establishing a Divisional Police Headquarters with the help of local chiefs and community members.
