Oyo Deputy Governor Lawal Commissions Egbeda Office Complex
On September 25, 2026, Abdulraheem Bayo Lawal, the Deputy Governor of Oyo State, commissioned a newly constructed office complex for the Executive Chairman of Egbeda Local Government, Hon. Sikiru Sanda, at the Council Secretariat in Egbeda, Ibadan. Lawal highlighted the strategic position of Egbeda for accelerated development due to major projects like the Ibadan Circular Road, the Air Force Base in Ajia, and the Ajoda Housing Estate.
He urged residents affected by the Circular Road project to view it as a long-term investment and assured that they would be compensated. Lawal compared the planned Circular Road to the unplanned Lagos–Ibadan Expressway, stressing the importance of sustainable development.
He stated that Egbeda would benefit significantly from these developments, which are designed to drive growth over the next 20 to 30 years. Hon. Sikiru Sanda described the office complex as a legacy of his administration, funded through the council's internally generated revenue.
