From Laide Raheem, Abeokuta
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State, Nurudeen Alowonle, has commended the senator representing Ogun West senatorial district at the National Assembly, Solomon Olamilekan Adeola otherwise known as Yayi, for resuming the construction of the abandoned Simawa High Court Road in the Sagamu Local Government Area of the state.
Alowonle, who gave this commendation while speaking with journalists in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, at the weekend, said that the High Court road located in the Ogun East Senatorial District is not only crucial but a vital arterial access to the Simawa community.
He explained that the road project was initially started but was abruptly abandoned after only a nominal stretch was completed.

“We are profoundly grateful to our Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola for heeding our calls, This road is a vital artery for our community, leading to a High Court and major markets. For years, we watched in dismay as the project was abandoned after just about 10 metres. The contrast in commitment is clear, and we applaud the senator from Ogun West for his intervention in this road project situated in Ogun East, which is vital to the socioeconomic activities of our people”, the APC chieftain.
Meanwhile, a market leader in Simawa, Mrs. Bukola Adebayo, had earlier emphasised the project’s economic impact and praised Senator Adeola for coming to the rescue of the community.
“As someone whose livelihood depends on moving goods and customers accessing the market, this road completion is an answered prayer. The previous poor state was a huge burden. We thank Governor Abiodun and Senator Adeola for this intervention. It shows they understand the needs of the common people and the importance of commerce in Simawa town”, she said.
