OYO STATE ROADMAP FOR 

ACCELERATED DEVELOPMENT

Oyo State - The Pacesetter 

11

Preamble 

ne of my proudest moments - is when 

Owe commissioned the 65 km Moniya- 

Iseyin road in 2021, and His 

Excellency brought his colleague, The 

Governor of Benue State Samuel Ortom to 

come and commission the project for us, I was 

happy because I was part of the history that 

completed the project. 

What I like about working with Governor Seyi 

Makinde is - He is a believer in Data, and so 

for me being a statistician, who has been 

working with data my entire life, over 36 years 

to be precise. This is a great thing. 

Governor Seyi Makinde is somebody who 

believes you must work with data to have 

what I call evidence based decision 

making. You cannot miss the mark because 

with reliable data, the error margin reduces to 

between 0-5%. 

So I like his style and really enjoy working with 

him, because he believes science must speak 

from the data, and data must inform the 

logic to drive implementation. 

His Excellency Engr. Seyi Makinde, FNSE DSc. is 

an astute professional Engineer who realizes that 

without data you cannot do anything tangibly or 

sustainably.

Foreword 

THE COMPENDIUM OF PROJECTS 

ALONG THE ROADMAP FOR ACCELERATED 

DEVELOPMENT OF OYO STATE. 

2019-2023 

VOL. 1 - DOMICILED WITH THE 

MINISTRY OF PUBLIC WORKS 

AND TRANSPORT 

Our Visionary Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde, FNSE, DSc. 

th 

resumed ofce May 29 , 2019, with the vision and Roadmap 

to Accelerated Development of Oyo state 2019 -2023, that 

had been envisioned and eruditely communicated while on the 

campaign trail, exacerbated by the glaring decay 

and prevailing physical infrastructure deficit statewide. Some 

parts of the state, Farmlands, Markets and Schools were not easily 

accessible, and many round-trips or return journeys within the 

state could not be undertaken in one day. 

A study of project delivery between 2011 - 2018 revealed; that over 

38% of the projects undertaken were either incomplete, inconclusive, 

ongoing, or not sighted, while another 23% already showed 

visible signs of defect. Pointing to over N 75 billion in unrealized 

value (As shown in Figure 1). 

13

FIGURE 1: PROJECT DELIVERY COST 

PERFORMANCE JUNE 2011 – MAY 2019 

Infrastructure Project Delivery performance within Public 

Service had historically been marred by; escalating costs, 

delayed funding, cash ow constraints, high interest rates, 

deterioration of professionalism & discipline quality. By inception 

of the administration in 2019, it became abundantly clear and 

certain that there is no longer room for Public Service 

business-as-usual in Oyo State. 

The rst 44 months of exceptional visionary leadership of His 

Excellency, Engr (Dr). Seyi Makinde, FNSE as governor of Oyo 

the Pacesetter State, has been characterized by the following: 

I. Exemplary performance along the Roadmap to 

Accelerated Development of Oyo state (2019 -2023) to 

address the glaring infrastructure & development decit 

state wide, His Excellency hit the ground running with the 

mission to transform Oyo State from a sleepy ineffective 

state to a prosperous and economically vibrant state 

through deliberate and articulate focus on key areas of 

the roadmap such as; Education, Health & Welfare, 

Agriculture & Food Security and Security, which in turn 

spurs on Youth Empowerment & Ease of Doing Business 

benefits , all underpinned by deliberate 

Infrastructure Development to drive the Economic 

Expansion vision and subsequently Domestic Resource 

Growth for economic vibrancy across the entire state. 

II. Success growing - Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), 

without increasing taxes, improved access to 

developmental funds through International 

Partnership and Grants, and by implementing 

breakthrough ideas addressing historic perennial project 

delivery challenges with improved sources of project 

funding like APFA – Alternative Project Funding 

Approach and changes in contractor mobilization 

to hedge noitaniand cost escalation pressures, 

allowing the Government to Do More with Less and 

within a good time to make meaningful improvements 

to the livelihood of the citizens and dwellers of the 

state. 

III. Success inculcating infrastructure maintenance into the 

project delivery contracts, with extended warranty such as 

the 65 km Moniya - Iseyin Road delivered in 2021 with 

twenty (20)-year maintenance included as model for 

other projects. 

14

The Public Works Capital Budget performance to date in Oyo State shows a total spend of about N 125.51 billion January 2019 - December 

2022 and another N 45 billion appropriated for 2023 capital projects impacting infrastructure development domiciled in the Ministry 

of Public works & Transport across the state surpassing and doubling the total comparative spend of N 61.96 billion by the previous 

administration in 8 years (2011 – 2018), as illustrated in Table A following, also illustrated in figure 2 

Table A: 12 - YEAR PUBLIC WORKS CAPITAL 

BUDGET PERFORMANCE (2011 – 2022) 

FIGURE 2: COST PERFORMANCE BUDGET VS ACTUAL 

(NGN bln) 

Total Capital Project spend across the South-West sub region of Nigeria ranges from 40% to 66% of State budget appropriations in 2022, Oyo State total Capital 

Expenditure appropriation is N156 billion, the third 3rd (3 ) largest corresponding to about 53% of total budget. 

15

All this put together and happening all across the entire state at this juncture in time, Oyo State is witnessing a Nexus of infrastructure 

revolution with re-awakened emphasis on more effective project delivery, within cost and in time to meet the yearnings of the citizenry, and at 

intended quality with sustainability embeded. 

We have also inculcated the capability and capacity to do - more - with - less as can be seen in Figure 4 below, which shows a graphical 

comparison between terminated contracts of stalled projects and the replacement contracts. 

Figure 4: OVERVIEW OF TERMINATED & RE-AWADED CONTRACTS (2019 – 2022) 

16 

We are also integrating Projects better, like Lite-up Oyo with road projects to bring meaningful development not just to the urban city capital of 

Ibadan, but also to the rural hometowns, further supporting the economy expansion by providing access to goods, services, free passage for 

people to stimulate the fundamentals for Night Economy.

Oyo State projects can also be seen to 

benchmark within the prevailing class of 

projects across the south - west sub-region 

under the general prevailing security and 

market conditions in the nation. Figure 5 

below, shows Oyo State overall projects in 

a benchmark comprising of projects from 

other adjoining states and relevant Federal 

Government projects.

17

To deliver on His Excellency's promises and rmly imbibe the new thinking for 

the state. 

The Ministry is continuously tasked to rise above the prevalent challenges of poor 

historic performance trends in Infrastructure Project Delivery, escalating costs, delayed 

funding, cash ow constraints, high interest rates, deterioration of professionalism & 

discipline quality by demonstrably improving in the following areas; 

a. Deepening Professionalism: New skills like benchmarking, New tools, training 

workshops, better reporting, appropriate tasking and placement 

b. Quality control / Assurance: Improved use of expertise and collaboration with 

outside experts like IEAG – Independent Expert Advisory Group, Multi- 

Disciplinary industry committees comprising of professional bodies and industry 

leaders. 

c. Value Engineering: Cost Reduction, Concept/Design challenges, alternative 

designs, Integration with other MDAs & projects including FGN projects. 

d. Innovative ways of improving overall infrastructure Availability, Reliability 

& Function 

e. Improved Response, Visibility, Presence & Timely Feedback: The creation of 

an Infrastructure Reporting tool, which gives pinpoint accuracy to identify 

defective infrastructure or hazard, create remediation tasks that can be assigned 

to responsible parties for execution, while providing status update and 

feedback to the reporter.

21

In summary, the state is gradually experiencing an 

infrastructure revolution correcting the glaring deficit, 

improving access, and laying the foundation for accelerated 

development across the entire state. 

With the current portfolio of about 500 kms of highways 

in 31 Infrastructure Development Projects either completed 

or underway focused at linking the 5 geopolitical zones and 

food basket of the state and another 163.75 – 273.75 kms 

in about 25 - 35 projects planned from 2023 targeting key 

areas contributing to the desired expanded economy. 

The Ministry of Public Works & Transport will continue to 

further deepen professionalism, competence and capability 

to ensure quality control and assurance while working 

together in concert with all Internal & External stakeholders 

to judiciously use existing and new resources, meet 

expectation of increased spending, improved budget 

performance and effective overall project delivery to ensure 

delivery on the promises and the vision of Your Excellency 

Governor of the Pacesetter state Engr. Oluseyi Makinde 

FNSE, DSc.

THE UNPRECEDENTED 

INFRASTRUCTURAL 

REVOLUTION 

’m delighted to introduce to you a 

Icompendium of the undeniable 

footprints of His Excellency Engr. Oluseyi 

Abiodun Makinde’ D.Sc., FNSE along the 

roadmap for the accelerated Development 

Of Oyo State 2019 - 2023 which he had 

articulated in the face of glaring 

infrastructure decit on the campaign trail 

..You will recall that when His Excellency 

took over the mantle of leadership in Oyo 

state may 2019, not many people believed 

that he could deliver on his campaign 

promises because he was not a known 

political big-wig neither did they understand 

his track record nor passion for delivery 

from his antecedents, track record and 

dynamic competencies. 

Four years down the line, His ably and 

eruditely led administration has exceeded 

expectations re-engineering a modern Oyo 

with sterling performance in all areas and 

facets of governance in our dear Pacesetter 

state. 

23

By “Doing What We Say”, “Doing More With Less” and 

“Showing What We Have Done” for the dividends of democracy 

to reach all and sundry - We are all living witnesses to the 

unfolding Infrastructure revolution, touching livelihoods of the 

citizens, professionals commuters and dwellers of Oyo state as 

well as travelers passing through. 

This compendium, catalogs world class Infrastructure 

Development projects domiciled with the ministry of Public 

Works & Transport 2019-2023 that underpin Agriculture & 

Food Security, Security, Education, Health, Ease of Doing 

Business, Youth Empowerment, Domestic Resource Growth and 

Social Justice & Equity, which then allows us to assert 

unequivocally that GSM effect can be seen and felt by all. I am 

persuaded this unique unfolding, a pragmatic revolution has 

just begun with Omititun 1.0. 

Join us with boots on ground, hands on deck and passion 

invigorated to continue to build a physically functional, 

economically vibrant, Aesthetically pleasing, and socially 

harmonious Oyo State. The pace Setter.

His Excellency Engr. OluSeyi 

Abiodun Makinde D.Sc, FNSE 

the Executive Governor of Oyo State 

at the Commissioning of the Construction 

of the 65m General Gas Flyover and the 

Dualisation of the 7.2 Km 

Idi Ape-Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo 

Barracks Road, Ibadan 

on Thursday, September 15, 2022. 

But when it is time to do what is right for the progress of our 

people, we should be able to come together and get it done. 

We welcome you to Oyo State. We know you are one of us. We 

can rightly call you an Ibadan boy since you were born here and 

grew up here. So, welcome home. 

When we came into government, we promised you, the good 

people of Oyo State that every road project we embark on 

would target our economy. 

Our slogan has always been 

‘where road goes, 

development follows’. 

Let me start by appreciating my brother, 

the Executive Governor of Ekiti State, His 

Excellency, Dr Kayode Fayemi, for joining 

us today as we commission the 65m General 

Gas Flyover and the dualisation of the 7.2 Km 

Idi Ape-Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo Barracks 

Road. 

Your presence here communicates a message 

to those who think that politics is a do-or-die 

affair and who think that collaboration across 

party lines for development is not possible. 

Yes, our great party, the Peoples Democratic 

Party and the All Progressives Congress, have 

different philosophies. 

46

The construction of the 65m 

General Gas Flyover and the 

dualisation of the 7.2 km Idi Ape- 

Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo Barracks 

Road, has brought a new level of 

development to, Ibadan North, 

Ibadan North East and Lagelu 

Local Government Areas. 

If you have any doubts that 

road construction directly 

contributes to economic 

development, then you can use 

the Idi Ape-Basorun Akobo- 

Odogbo Barracks Road as a 

case study. 

People who have lived here for 

four years and above will tell you 

the level of economic activity that 

has been extended to this zone in 

the past year. They will be able 

to do a comparative analysis, or 

as we say in local parlance, a 

“before and after”. 

47

So, I can say with all condence: Another promise kept! 

Some people will say there are other roads that need 

repairs; that some roads in Ibadan need rehabilitation. 

Yes, we are aware of the state of roads, not just in 

Ibadan but the whole of Oyo State. And as we have 

promised, governance will continue to the last day 

of the life of this administration. So, we are already 

doing something about inner city roads. 

Earlier in the week, we gave the Oyo State Road 

Maintenance Agency (OYSROMA) 750 Million Naira 

for the rehabilitation of roads. The plan is to ensure 

that all LGAs get some of their roads xed. 

And let me quickly address again an issue that 

keeps coming up in conversation. There is this idea 

that the State Government has hijacked Local 

Government functions. Let me repeat that we have 

not in any way hijacked the functions of any local 

government. We are only putting in the work needed 

to assist them in their functions. We all know the 

economic realities in our country right now. This has 

often led to people having to make tough decisions. 

Sometimes, looking at the money in your pocket, you 

may decide, “meat is not my problem this night. Let 

me buy bread.” It is this same decision that 

government at all levels need to make. 

For example, should we pay salaries or use the 

money to build roads? Because the money is simply 

not enough to do both. 

And so, here in Oyo State, we decided to make that 

decision easier for the LGAs. We tell them, go ahead 

and pay salaries – which stimulate the economy – we 

will assist you in doing other things that you should be 

doing. 

Let me once again thank my brother, Governor Kayode 

Fayemi, for doing us the honour of being with us for the 

commissioning of the General Gas Flyover and the Idi 

Ape-Basorun-Akobo Odogbo Barracks Road. 

We appreciate you. I will now yield the podium to him, 

after which we shall proceed to commission the General 

Gas Flyover and the Idi Ape-Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo 

Barracks Road to the glory of God and for the benet 

of the good people of Oyo State. 

Thank you, and God bless you.

IDIAPE - BASORUN - 

AKOBO ROAD OF OLD 

Passing through the 7.25km Idi-Ape/ 

Basorun/Akobo Road in the past was often 

characterized by pains and agony, due to 

the bad state of the road. 

Residents and motorists along the route 

often had hectic reaching their destinations 

result of its deplorable condition. The 

situation got to a level where residents of 

the area abandoned their private cars for 

commercial vehicles and motorcycles, while 

others relocated outside the area due to 

the hardship on the road. 

Heavy-duty vehicles plying the road were 

often stuck in different spots, thereby 

making passage of other vehicles difcult, 

thus creates hold-ups on the route. 

The road is one major road within the 

Ibadan metropolis that serves as a link to 

three local government councils in the 

State. It is a major link that connects 

Ibadan Northeast Local Government in 

Basorun to Lagelu and Akinyele Local 

Government via Akobo and Olorunda 

Axis. 

49

Residents in the area described their 

experiences on the road as terrible and 

lamented the damage caused by the road on 

their vehicles. 

Some commercial drivers decried that the 

situation had seriously affected their income, 

and noted that daily trips along the route had 

drastically reduced. 

The contract for the rehabilitation of the road 

which was awarded in May 2017 and was 

supposed to be completed within 18months. 

However, the rehabilitation of the road was 

taking longer than necessary, which resulted in 

the termination of the contract by Governor 

Seyi Makinde. 

Residents called on Governor Seyi Makinde to 

prevail in the situation and re-award on the 

road contract to ease the hardships being 

experienced on the road. Between the city 

nad ‘less’ city. 

The road was re-awarded by Governor Seyi 

Makinde through the Alternative Project 

Funding Approach (APFA), which allows the 

State to pay over time after the contractor 

must have nanced the project. 

This again is one, among many others of the 

GSM infrastructure revolution in Ibadan and 

Oyo State at large.

BRIEF TECHNICAL DETAILS OF 

THE DUALIZATION OF (7.25km) 

IDI-APE - BASORUN - AKOBO - 

ODOGBO BARRACKS 

JUNCTION PROJECT 

IDI APE – BASORUN – AKOBO – ODOGBO BARRACK 

JUNCTION ROAD is a 7.25 km comprising of a yover 

over-pass across Lagos - Ibadan – Oyo Expressway 

linking the city with less city. It was originally awarded 

to ENL on 19th May 2017 but stalled at 35.76% 

progress till it was terminated for non performance by 

May 2020. For expediency, the project was split into 2 

work-scopes, and re-awarded separately. 

THE ROAD 

The contract for the dualization of Basorun –Akobo – 

Odogbo Barracks Junction was awarded on 12 

November, 2020. The road is within Ibadan metropolis, 

precisely within Lagelu Local Government Area. It serves 

as a link to many major roads such as Ibadan – Lagos 

Expressway, Agodi/Bus top – Idi Ape – 

Iwo Road Interchange, Iwo Road, Olorunda Community 

and 2nd mechanized division of Nigerian 

Army, Odogbo barrack, Ibadan. 

51

The entire project area is fully developed with no vegetation on both sides of the road. Important 

features along the corridor of the road are petrol lling stations, schools, BCOS, shopping complexes, 

residential, buildings, Mosques, Churches, event centres, eateries, police station etc. The trafc volume 

on the road before its dualization was huge and always led to trafc log jams at the junctions on the 

road way. 

The road commences at Idi Ape, passes through Basorun, Akobo Ojurin and terminates at Odogbo 

Barrack Junction. The length of the road is 7.252km. 

There is a 1.2m wide median. Thus, the total width of the road way from drain to drain is 23.7m. 

The general scope of the works are: 

i. Clearing of site on either side of the carriageway of the carriageway of all shrubs, trees, wall, 

fences e.t.c, 

ii. Scarication of existing asphaltic concrete surfacing 

iii. Relocation of existing services including NITEL, PHCN and Water Corporation of Oyo State. 

iv. Making up of the design formation level using approved lateritic materials. 

v. Construction of pavement structure with the following 

FEATURES: 

a) 200mm thick lateritic sub base, 

b) 200mm thick crushed stone base, 

c) 50mm thick binder course of asphaltic concrete, 

d) 40mm thick wearing course of asphaltic concrete, 

e) Placing of 100mm thick concrete on medians and walkways, 

f) Construction of Trapezoidal Reinforced concrete lined drain, 

g) Construction of reinforced concrete retaining wall, 

h) Construction of box culverts or various sizes, 

i) Laying of kerbs to walkways and medians, 

j) Pavement markings and provision of road signs, 

k) Removal and carting away of suitable materials from roadway, 

l) Provision of 4 no-250mm diameter service ducts at junctions 

and designated points.

FLYOVER AT GENERAL GAS 

Flag Off, Speech of His Excellency 

Governor Seyi Makinde 

All the people that have come to speak, all spoke English, 

even your LGA chairman spoke in English, the 

Commissioner spoke English, SA infrastructure also spoke in 

English. Is that the way it should be? Good! 

Eka abo so ri eto wa yii oo.… 

Well, let me greet the chairman of Peculiar Ultimate Concern, I 

greet you oo. What we came to do here today Is to ag-off the 

y-over bridge that will connect Idi ape, Akobo Oju irin all the 

way to Odogbo barracks. I don't know why they have not invited 

the Lagelu people, because, Oh, Lagalu is here. Akinyele Is also 

here, which means you arranged the gathering by federal 

constituencies. 

Well, this bridge is important to our economy - because if you 

come to this place in the morning, those who are going to work, 

those going to gate, those going to Idi-ape, you did see that the 

queue is much. As I said earlier before, I said most of the 

infrastructural projects that we will do, that government wants 

to do, will be project that will improve the economy of Oyo 

State, when we nish this bridge. Those who want to go to Agodi 

Gate to buy things, or those that want to go to Dugbe, will it be 

easier for them or not? (Crowd responded). 

I know the struggles of those people living on the other side of this 

bridge go through. When we came in, as a matter of fact, at this 

time in 2019, the contractor noticeably started to work in earnest 

including overnight, the contractor that had been given the work 

since last year, started to lay asphalt, you had elected me then, as 

Governor elect. So around 2:00 AM one day, I stopped by to ask, 

-so this work you are all of a sudden doing so seriously, is it so 

important that you are doing it overnight, or you want to nish 

before we enter government? 

What they were trying to do was show work done to reduce the 

money they have embezzled. When we looked at their records 

and I am saying this with all sense of responsibility. Ministry of 

Works brought a milestone certicate, for work done, to enable 

payment to contractor. I questioned that is this the road works that 

I usually pass by every night without noticing any work being 

done, that you have brought certicates for? So I asked how much 

we are owing them. They said around 700 million, I then told them 

that they should get all the documents from inception to date 

detailing all the monies that we (the Government) have paid to 

date, since we have only just gotten to ofce, to tally all the money 

that the government has paid, with the corresponding percentage 

of work they have done. I told them to go and bring it. By the 

second day, they said, that it is the contractor that was owing us 

400 million. we are still going to collect the 400 million from them, 

we've not collected it but we will collect it. (crowd cheered) 

So, the original contract was awarded in 2017, from Idi Ape to 

Akobo Oju irin not reaching Odogbo Barracks Junction, where 

they are meant to do the road to. The contractor was just playing 

with the project. But let us even forget the road we said they should 

do for a brief moment. The contract cost of the bridge component 

of the work, was 1.464 billion (one billion four hundred and sixtyfour 

million) Naira, of which 368 million naira had been paid to

contractor before we stopped the work. what we have seen for the 

worth 368 million are these reinforcements and concrete over there. 

Well they did some piling, because we saw they had a piling rig in this 

place that was dying and waking up, once you may see it working and 

then for the next two weeks no work, all you will see is mechanics will be 

losing and xing it. Well, now that 1. 64 billion is Money Of the Day 

2017. 

Have things not gone up in price or not since then? 

It has gone up (crowd responded). Good. 

We in 2021, have awarded the contract again, take a listen, we 

awarded it for One billion and Fifty-Eight million only, million. Following 

the award, the government will not pay a dime until they have done up to 

20% milestone, we will now start to pay every month for a year before 

we pay it up. 

From the money of the day 2017 we saved 40 million naira for Oyo 

state Government, since 2017, now four years – all they have done is 

what you are seeing here. But on my honor, as I stand in front of you 

today that with reduce amount of 2021 that we awarded, we will go 

across this bridge in the next six months. 

They have wondered that are we using charms or local magic. You 

remember the song we were singing during our campaign - The God 

who has the burden – will help us carry it. (Crowd carries on with the 

song). 

What we have been doing is that we are sitting down to analyze what 

we need to do for the people of Oyo State who have tasked us with 

governance that their livelihoods can be improved. So we want to beg 

you not to be afraid, - Are you afraid? (Crowd responded no!) 

Yes, we give them credit for starting the project, but it is not only who 

started, but who nishes. 

We are all children of salvation. 

So this project will be completed in six months and all of us are the 

supervisors on the project, should you be passing-by and notice 

anything that you think requires attention, let us know so that we can 

instruct the contractor accordingly. 

It is not only the yover bridge that we will be here, but we will also 

put Street lights. We have started the lights from Idi Ape. Also Mr 

contractor awarded this yover bridge, If you look at the original 

bridge that is behind us you will see that they wrote S on it, Do you 

know what the S stands for? Strabag, it stands for STRABAG. 

When I was growing up, my paternal father whenever we returned 

from school, and we had been asked to buy books, buy pencil, and 

submitted bill. My father's response was ok. I will give you the money 

when I return from work, He will then leave clothes for us to wash and 

iron before he returns. We would have gone out to play and 

forgotten about the chores, when our father returns and we to 

remind him of the money for books, money for books!! He will say – 

oh so you have seen STRABAG that will be working for you to come 

and demand for money for book from Abi!!,.... money for book 

indeed. 

Peculiar you also put P so that's when you are working in Oyo state… 

so that some fathers can later be telling their children, have you 

seen Peculiar abi! .....(crowd laughing). 

So on these note, I am happy to gaoff the yover bridge 

(crowd clapping. 

Thank you and God bless you.

His Excellecy, OluSeyi Makinde 

at the Commissioning of 

JUNCTION IMPROVEMENTS 

AT CHALLENGE AND FELELE, 

IBADAN 

his junction improvement we have done here in 

TChallenge and Felele is just one of the several ways 

that our administration is keeping its promise to the 

people of Oyo State. Before now, we have had people 

endure trafc at this junction for 20- 30 minutes and even 

more because the road was narrower and then we had 

transporters taking up a whole lane. 

80

When we say time is money, we can then quantify what 30 

minutes of lateness to a project everyday can cost in real 

terms. So, with this improvement, we did not just have 

trafc lights installed to ease the trafc ow, but we have 

built a park for vehicles and motorbikes to transit and ease 

movement along this junction. Transporters and visitors can 

park their vehicles without hindering trafc. The road has 

been expanded creating even more space for vehicular 

movement. We also have three modern bus stops 

constructed for commuters. 

For some people living in some other parts of the 

country, they may think 30 minutes trafc is not so 

much, but here in Oyo State, our slogan is that we 

will only make things better, and what we cannot 

make better we will not make worse. 

And since our administration came into ofce, we have 

been doing our best to improve the lives of the people of 

Oyo State. The results are there for all to see. Data from 

the National Bureau of Statistics keeps showing that we are 

doing the right things here. 

81

So, while some people get angry when the 

National Bureau of Statistics release their 

gures and begin to look for ways to 

discredit them, here in Oyo State, we look 

forward to the release of data because it 

helps us know how well we are doing 

compared to other states around us and also 

reveals what we need to tweak for even 

better results. 

So far, we are happy with the results we are 

getting, and as I said in my State Broadcast 

earlier today, we can proudly say that we 

have made the lives of the people of Oyo 

State better than we met it 2 years ago. And 

come next year, we are sure that it will be 

even better than it was this year. 

So, on this note, I hereby declare the 

Junction Improvements at Challenge and 

Felele commissioned to the glory of God 

and for the benet of the good people of 

Oyo State.

95




at the Commissioning of the 65km 

Moniya-Ijaiye-Iseyin Road 

on Thursday, June 3, 2021. 

We are here today to commission one of 

the projects which will play a major role 

in our engineering a modern Oyo State 

– an Oyo State where the prosperity of the people 

through economic integration serves as the fulcrum 

of our decisions. 

But rst, let me once more, appreciate my brother 

Governor, Samuel Ortom of Benue State for 

travelling down to be with us on this happy 

occasion. I want to use this opportunity to convey 

the deepest sympathies of myself, my family and the 

good people of Oyo State to you over the death of 

your Senior Special Assistant on Security, 

Christopher Dega. May God grant you and his 

friends and family the strength to bear the loss. 

96

I am sure I speak for myself, the people of Iseyin in particular 

and the good people of Oyo State when I say, we are 

delighted that you could be here today at the commissioning 

of the 65km Moniya-Ijaiye-Iseyin Road. 

This road remained in a deplorable state for several years. I 

remember that immediately after I became governor, I began 

to receive SOS messages regarding this road. I remember 

this particular request on social media from someone who 

said some parents have had to withdraw their children from 

school because of their inability to navigate this road to get 

to school. 

The state of this road also kept people away from going from 

Moniya to Iseyin. On a good day, they would spend three 

hours out here. You can then imagine what it would be like 

on a bad day when perhaps, a truck has broken down at one 

of the terrible spots. 

Although a contract for rehabilitation of this road was 

awarded by the previous administration, our initial inspection 

visits in 2019 revealed that the contractors had not even 

done 5% of the work here before abandoning it. We 

therefore had to revoke and re-award the contract. 

I always say that whatever decisions we make at any 

point in this administration will be based on science, 

data and logic. So, we factored in that we wanted this 

road to be top grade and last at least 10 years before 

any rehabilitations. For this reason, we decided to 

increase the stubbing course from about 150mm to about 

200mm, and we also changed the asphaltic wearing course 

from 40mm to 50mm. 

97

Looking at the initial design, we also realised that there was inadequate 

provision for drainage. So, we had to remedy that too. 

More importantly, the original contract was for what they called, “limited 

rehabilitation.” This is just a fancy way of saying they would patch the road. 

They would look at those areas that they felt were bad and do some 

rehabilitation works. For us, this was awed logic. We knew this would only 

amount to kicking the ball forward. In a year or so, we would be back to doing 

major rehabilitations. 

So, with all the available data, we decided that the more logical thing to do 

would be to increase the contract sum by about 2.9 billion Naira and deliver 

the quality of road that our people deserved. 

98

What we have done here is the total reconstruction of this 65km road 

at 9.9 billion Naira and this translates to 152 billion Naira per 

kiliometre. 

So again, based on science, data and logic we made the best 

decision overall. 

Of course, we understood the economic signicance of this road not 

only to individual residents but also to the growth of commerce and 

industry. 

99

The Moniya-Ijaiye-Iseyin Road is the link 

between Ibadan and Oke-Ogun, Oyo State's 

food basket. This road also hosts the once 

moribund Pacesetter Quarry and Asphalt Plant; 

not only have we resuscitated the plant, but it is 

already producing asphalt that we use in the 

construction of our roads here in Oyo State. 

As we drive down this road, I am sure you will 

see the economic impact it has had with the 

springing up of farm estates on both sides of the 

road. 

So, as we commission this road, let me again 

remind our people that we promised you 

economic development and prosperity through 

our Roadmap to Accelerated Development in 

Oyo State, 2019-2023. 

This is just another way that we are delivering on 

good governance. This is another promise kept.

at the Commissioning of the 9.7km 

Saki Township Road Dualisation Project 

on Thursday, January 27, 2022 

et me start by thanking my dear brother, 

LHisExcellency, Governor Ahmadu Umaru 

Fintiri of Adamawa State, for honouring us 

with hispresence here today as we commission 

this very strategic road to the people of Saki, Oke- 

Ogun zone – the Saki Township Road. It has been 

delightful watching all the displays of culture here 

and the warm welcome you all have given us. 

When people see us celebrating a road 

construction, they sometimes say it’s a third 

world concept. They ask: What are they 

celebrating? Why are they celebrating? But, 

looking at the faces of everyone here today we 

can answer, we are celebrating accelerated 

development. Because everywhere a strategic 

road goes, development follows immediately. 

This principle did not start with us. History has 

it that the rst road for motorised vehicles in 

Nigeria was built here in Oyo State in 1906. 

That road linked Ibadan to Oyo Town. And the 

main purpose of that road was to move people and 

agricultural products from Oyo to Ibadan and then 

to the ports for export. 

This is why I am excited about the road 

linkages we are creating here in the Oke-Ogun 

zone. Oke-Ogun is our breadbasket and 

agricultural capital. So. linking Oke-Ogun up 

with the rest of the zones means that we can 

easily move our produce on for export, either 

by air through our Airport-Ajia Road being 

reconstructed or through the proposed inland 

dry port which is just off the Moniya-Iseyin 

Road, which we have also completed. 

We know from history that all of this work we 

have put in will bring about the needed 

development to our dear state. As we always 

say, for our state to take that leading role that we 

all dream of, we must take development beyond 

Ibadan. 

We cannot afford to continue in the trajectory 

where one part of the state is generating the 

revenue that all the other parts of the state benet 

from. This will only create another Nigerian 

situation in Oyo State. We all already know how 

some parts of the country feel about other parts 

because they believe it is their revenue that everyone 

is sharing. 

110

It is time to diversify. And a proper road linkage is the rst step in 

this diversication. When we say we are engineering a 

modern Oyo State, this is what we mean. We mean we are 

designing and building a modern Oyo State. 

The foundation of that design is a proper road network. 

This is why we will not ignore any viable road projects 

started by our predecessors. 

We know that it is possible to decide to play politics with 

development as some people did in the past. All of us here are 

witnesses to how some people came and said “eh, I will not nish 

the others started.” “Eh, I have to start and nish my own 

project”. 

This is why they are confused by our style of governance. 

Like I have said in the past, we will nish all uncompleted 

projects which are strategic to the development of our 

dear state. And when we nish them, we will commission them 

just as we are doing now. Because, when you are running a race, 

the question people usually ask is not, “How many people 

started the race?” No, it is “How many people nished the 

race?” It is among those who nished the race that we will 

choose winners. 

Therefore, we will nish uncompleted and abandoned projects 

for the benet of the good people of Oyo State. 

So, when they come to you and say, “Eh, the Saki Township 

Road was it not the former people that started it?” Tell 

them, “Yes, it doesn’t matter who started it, what matters 

is that someone nished it because this is how we engineer a 

modern Oyo State.” 

For the records, let me remind us all that the contract for this road 

was initially awarded in 2016, and for over three years, the contractor 

remained here, holding the people of Saki to ransom. In fact, as of 

when the contract was revoked in September 2020, the contractor 

had only done less than 15% of the job. But here we are today, just 

about 15 months after we revoked that contract celebrating another 

promise delivered. And we are delivering this 9.7km Saki Township 

Road at a relatively lower cost than when it was rst awarded in 2016. 

We made roughly One Billion Naira in savings. 

And this is what we will continue to do. We will continue to deliver 

good governance to the people of Oyo State with zero 

wastage. 

We will continue to make Oyo State the proof that good 

governance is possible in Nigeria. We are kickstarting an 

infrastructural revolution that will make people say once again 

with all pride, “We have roots in the Pacesetter State.” “We 

are proudly Oyo.” 

And with this, we will proceed with my brother, His Excellency, 

Governor Ahmadu Fintiri to commission the 9.7km Saki Township 

Road to the glory of God and the for benet of the good people of 

Oyo State.

WEDNESDAY 16TH MARCH, 2022

Governor Seyi Makinde's Remarks at the 

Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa Road Commissioning 

117




at the Commissioning of the 

Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa-Road, 

Oyo State, on Thursday, March 17, 2022 

et me once again, thank His 

LExcellency, Governor Bala 

Abdulkadir Mohammed of Bauchi 

State, for being here with us today. We 

appreciate your honouring us with your 

presence as we return to Oyo Town 

again, this time, to commission the 

Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa Road. 

Just about three months ago, we were 

here to ofcially ag off the 34.85km 

Oyo-Iseyin Road. 

I am sure everyone can see the work is 

going on well. 

When people hear that this road is ve 

point two kilometres, they might say, oh, 

it's a small road. But when you look at the people who came out today to celebrate this small 

road, you will realise how important it is to them. This Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa Road links Oyo 

West and Atiba Local Government Areas in the Oyo-Ile area of our state. It also links the 

North-South Federal (A1) Highway route 2, connecting the 35km Oyo-Iseyin and the 77km 

Ogbomoso–Iseyin Roads. 

So, it might be small to some, but to our people here in Oyo Ile, is it small? 

Yes, we will continue to full our mandate to our people, in small ways and big ways. 

Part of that mandate is to stem rural-urban migration by ensuring good road network 

and interconnectivity outside Ibadan Zone. 

118

Very soon, in fact, in the next two months, we will be counting three 

years in ofce. And we will be presenting our scorecard. The 

good thing is that our scorecard is not hidden. In road 

construction alone, we have over 550 kilometres of roads, both 

completed and ongoing. 

We have successfully laid the proper foundation for 

engineering a modern Oyo State. 

As we have said repeatedly, we believe that anywhere that roads go, 

development follows. And so, when we promised that we would 

move the good people of Oyo State from poverty to prosperity, we 

knew that a lot of our plans would be hinged on creating a viable 

road network through rehabilitations, reconstructions and 

constructions. 

So far, we have done a lot of work around the Oke-Ogun-Oyo- 

Ibadan axis. And we are seeing how much development this has 

brought in less than three years. Development means that more 

businesses are seeing Oyo State open up, and they are coming 

to site their companies here. 

When these companies come here, they pay taxes. And so, we 

have been able to raise our Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) by a 

record N15 billion in 2 years. 

And when these monies come into our purse, we plough it 

back into development. So when they ask, “Nibo ni Seyi 

n'rowo?” You can tell them: “owo development ni o”. Because 

we are reinvesting these monies into the economy. 

More recently, we are expanding the road network and linking Oke- 

Ogun to Ogbomoso through the Iseyin-Fapote-Ogbomoso Road. 

119

This seventy-six point seven-kilometre road will serve the 

same purpose as the Moniya-Ijaiye-Iseyin Road – providing a 

vital link between two zones. 

Now that we have successfully linked these four 

zones, people will ask: what about the fth zone? 

What about the people of Ibarapaland? 

We have a message for our people in Ibarapa Zone. We are 

coming for you! 

Yes, we did not forget you. 

The Englishman says the patient dog eats the fattest bone, 

but our people say it is the person who gets the bottom of 

the pot that eats the sweetest part of the food. 

In our bid to engineer a modern Oyo State, the 

people of Ibarapa will not be left out. We have reawarded 

the reconstruction of the 58km Omi Adio-Ido- 

Eruwa Road. Also, we have approved the limited 

rehabilitation of the Igboora-Igangan-Iganna Road while the 

reconstruction of the Isaba-Ogundoyin Road, Eruwa is 

currently ongoing. 

We did not come into government without a plan. We 

knew what we wanted to accomplish, and I am happy that 

you are all seeing a modern Oyo State develop before your 

very eyes. 

An Oyo State where no zone is left behind in our 

development plan. 

An Oyo State we can all be proud of. 

So today, we are here to rejoice with the people of Oyo 

Zone as we commission this 5.2km Gedu-Oroki-Sabo-Asipa 

Road. 

And on that note, I invite my brother, His Excellency, 

Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, the Executive 

Governor of Bauchi State, to perform the commissioning to 

the glory of God and for the benet of the good people of 

Oyo State.

123




at the Official Flag-Off of the 

Construction of the Saki-Ogbooro 

-Igboho Road 

on Monday, May 31, 2021. 

et me welcome you all to the ofcial ag-off 

Lof the 45.3km Saki-Ogbooro-Igboho Road. 

The road was awarded for N8.7billion and 

the contractors are Messrs China Civil Engineering 

Construction Corporation (CCECC). They have 

been on site for the past three months and we can 

see how far they've gone. We are expecting that this 

project will be completed in May 2022. And the 

contractors have assured me that it will be ready. 

The road is of great economic signicance to the 

people of Saki, Ogbooro and Igboho. It will serve as 

a link between these communities and we all know 

what happens when communities are linked – 

economic boom. We have seen this happen in 

other areas where we have opened up through 

roads. People who moved out of Apete are now 

returning because their road is better. And even 

closer to you here, with the reconstruction of the 

124

Moniya-Iseyin Road, we see farm estates springing up 

on both sides of the road. 

When you think of it, you will see that a good road 

network serves as the foundation for development in 

other sectors. For example, we cannot have a 

thriving tourism industry when the roads are 

bad. When people think of how much they have to 

suffer to get to some destinations, they will rather 

just stay away. 

So, when people ask us why we have not started 

doing something visible about our tourism sites, I 

usually tell them, one thing at a time. First, we 

create the needed infrastructure and then we 

build on it. As I always say, our plan is to lift the 

people out of Oyo State from poverty to prosperity. 

To accomplish this, we have to take decisions 

based on science, data and logic. 

So, you can clearly see the logic behind why we are 

now turning attention to tourism at this time. We 

needed to build the base infrastructure. And we are 

not resting on our oars. We will continue to deliver 

good roads and quality infrastructure to our people. 

On this note, I hereby ofcially ag off the 

reconstruction Saki-Ogbooro-Igboho Road, to the 

glory of God and the for benet of the good people 

of Oyo State.

GOVERNOR SEYI MAKINDE'S 

REMARKS AT THE FLAG-OFF OF 

THE 38.45KM OYO-ISEYIN ROAD 

134

As you drive in from the Oyo end of this road, you will 

see the amount of work that Messrs Kopek 

Construction Ltd have already done on this road. I'm 

sure the good people of Oyo are already seeing the benets 

of this road construction. And when it is completed, it will 

become a vital link between the farming communities of 

Oke-Ogun and Oyo, providing the much-needed market 

linkage between these zones. 

Well, this is the ofcial ag-off of the construction, but the 

contractors have been on-site for ve months. You can now 

do the maths to see if they are on course to complete their 

work within the scheduled one year. They have assured us 

that this will happen. 

Permit me at this point to once again welcome my brother, 

His Excellency Douye Diri, the Executive Governor of 

Bayelsa State and thank him for honouring us with his 

presence to ag off this road construction ofcially. 

As I mentioned, Messrs Kopek Construction is handling this 

contract. The total contract sum which was originally eight 

point four billion Naira (N8.4 billion) was increased to nine 

point nine billion Naira (N9.9 billion) last month. 

As you may be aware, this is a federal road being reconstructed by the 

Oyo State Government. So, after consultation with the Federal 

Government, we were given specications to comply with. 

135

For example, we had to increase the width of the road from 

10.75m to 12.75m to meet the federal government 

specications. We are executing the project using the 

Alternative Project Funding Approach (APFA). 

Let me take a few minutes to talk about our approach to 

executing projects in Oyo State. 

Some people are still confused as to how we are still 

agging off projects when some states are nding it 

difcult to pay salaries. They do not understand how we are 

raising Oyo State's Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), 

building our economy and engineering a modern Oyo State. 

With APFA, the contractor funds the project, and we pay back 

over an agreed period of time. And let me make this clear: you 

have my word that not one Naira will be left unpaid to any 

contractor under APFA at the end of our current tenure. 

For example, for this project, which was awarded in June this 

year, the repayment period is seventeen (17) months. This 

means that the project will be completed before all the 

repayments are made. However, the last repayment will be 

made by December 2022. 

And so, what do they do? 

They go to town with stories. 

Seyi Makinde is taking on hidden debts. He is going to turn our 

children into slaves. The debt he is leaving, we don't know 

how many years it will take us to pay it. 

All lies, fake news and disinformation. 

Our secret to carrying on these projects is the 

Alternative Project Funding Approach (APFA). And I can 

say it's an open secret. Because from when we started using it, 

we have always been open and transparent about it. 

136

So, do not allow anyone to confuse you—road construction is 

a big part of our engineering a modern Oyo State. 

The building of roads forms the foundation of the 

development of all other sectors of the four pillars of our 

governance as clearly outlined in our Roadmap to 

Accelerated Development in Oyo State, 2019-2023 

. 

You need good roads to drive to healthcare centres. Without 

good roads, our children cannot go to school. How will our 

farmers get to the markets if the roads are bad? And no 

matter how many vehicles we give to security agencies, 

how will they be able to get to people in trouble when the 

roads are bad? 

So, we will continue to build a viable road network for our dear 

state. This is the path to sustainable development. 

We look forward to coming back here in seven months to 

commission this 34.85km Oyo-Iseyin Road to the glory of God 

and for the benet of the good people of Oyo State.

Governor Seyi Makinde’s Remarks

the Executive Governor 

of Oyo State 

at the Flag Off of the 76.67km 

Ogbomoso-Fapote-Iseyin Road 

on Wednesday, May 18, 2022. 

We are here today to ag-off of the 

76.67km Ogbomoso-Fapote-Iseyin Road 

construction here in Ogbomoso. 

But before I go on with my remarks, let me stop and 

say a big thank you to my brother, the Executive 

Governor of Kwara State, His Excellency AbdulRasaq 

AbdulRahman. We are very happy that you could join 

us here today, especially as you are our next-door 

neighbour. 

Many people may not know, but Oyo State 

shares a border with Kwara State here at 

Ogbomoso and so, this road is of vital economic 

importance to both states. When it comes to the 

facilitation of trade between the two states and the 

movement of agricultural produce, our farmers and 

other investors will be able to go from Iseyin all the way to Kwara through this 

route. Also, the road will facilitate easy commutes between the Ladoke Akintola 

University of Technology (LAUTECH) campuses in Ogbomoso and Iseyin. 

As we always say, every project we embark on here in Oyo State, will 

have data and logic behind it. So, for those asking, this is the logic behind this 

road construction. We are facilitating both intracity and interstate movements. 

151

It bears repeating that where roads go, 

development follows. And so, in our quest to 

continue in the work of engineering a modern 

Oyo State, we will continue executing road 

projects. 

Some people have come out to say we 

should focus on one section of the state and 

ensure it is developed. But this is not the 

path to sustainable development. As I have 

said in the past, we do not want to recreate 

the problem with Nigeria in Oyo State. 

Today, we are talking about restructuring as the 

way forward for Nigeria because people in one 

section of the country believe that they are the 

ones creating all the wealth that people from the 

other sections are benetting from. 

So here in Oyo State, we have chosen that we 

will develop all the zones in the state and the 

best way to do this is by creating an effective 

road network. 

In this way, we are leveraging our comparative 

advantage in agriculture. 

152

Because of what good is it that our farmers are producing but 

they cannot move their produce to the market? Or that they have 

access to just local markets where only people from the same vicinity 

can buy, whereas they can get paid more when they are able to easily 

travel to larger markets not just within the state but also outside it. 

Of course, this our view of expanding the economy through efcient 

road network may not be understood by many, especially those who 

do not have the interests of the people at heart. Or how else will 

you explain it that someone questioning the importance of the 

Airport-Ajia-New Ife Road with a spur to Amuloko and the 

Iseyin-Ogbomoso Road projects, saying they have little or no 

economic value to the state. 

People of Ogbomoso, is this road of value? 

What about our brothers in Iseyin, do you think this road is important? 

So, we will continue to fulll our mandate given to us by the people. 

We will not relent in all our efforts to move Oyo State to prosperity 

as we focus on protecting the interests of the good people of our 

dear state. 

And on that note, I will give my brother, His Excellency, Governor 

AbdulRasaq AbdulRahman, the opportunity to speak to us and then we 

will proceed to ag off the 76.67Km Ogbomoso-Fapote-Iseyin Road 

project to the glory of God and for the benet of the good people of 

Oyo State.

Governor Seyi Makinde’s 

Remarks at the Official Flag-Off 

of the Asphaltic 

Reconstruction/Rehabilitation/ 

Expansion of the Ibadan-Iwo- 

Osogbo Road 

Today, I want to talk to you about the word 

“revolution”. I know, when people hear the 

word revolution, they often think of bloody 

wars that lead to change in a political order. Well, 

don't be alarmed, I am not here to preach violence. 

Rather, I am here to talk about a different kind of 

revolution that is happening in the south west of 

Nigeria but ably led by my brother, Governor Oyetola 

and myself. 

You know, revolutions always bring to birth a new 

order, a new way of doing things. And so, the 

revolution in the south west has led to us changing the 

former ways of doing things. In the past, every state 

used to mind their own business and operate in their 

own little corners. But with this new way of doing 

things, we are pursuing collaborations with our sister 

states. 

When we just came in, we started on this path with 

one of the biggest collaborations in the history of 

south west states. We all came together and decided 

on creating the Western Nigeria Security Network 

code named Amotekun. And in 2020, we 

operationalised the Oyo-Amotekun. As I have said on 

many occasions, our people cannot imagine life 

without Amotekun. 

186

187

lso, just about two years ago, we celebrated 

Aanother win that resulted from this revolution. My 

brother, our host for this ag-off, His Excellency 

Gboyega Oyetola, the Executive Governor of Osun 

State, was a big part of that history. He benevolently 

acceded to granting us sole ownership of the Ladoke 

Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), which 

made it possible for me to fulll a campaign promise to 

the good people of Oyo State. 

Let me once again use this opportunity to say 

thank you, egbon. 

Additionally, earlier this year, just over six months ago, we 

had a handshake with my brother from Ogun State, His 

Excellency Dapo Abiodun. You will recall that we held a 

joint security meeting over rising security threats at that 

time. Together, we worked on securing the lives and 

properties of our people at border communities of our 

states. Since that collaboration, reports of kidnappings in 

that axis have drastically reduced. 

Today, I am joining His Excellency Gboyega Oyetola, 

and together we are again, making history. This time, 

as jointly agreed, we will be linking our dear states 

with a road project. And so, another milestone of 

collaboration is reached with this agging off of the 

asphaltic reconstruction, rehabilitation and expansion of 

the Osogbo-Iwo-Ibadan Road. Well, coming from Oyo 

State, you would say Ibadan-Iwo-Osogbo Road. Don't be 

confused, it's the same road. It's just a matter of direction. 

I need to acknowledge also that we have both 

demonstrated that politics should be left to those few 

months when INEC says we should begin campaigning 

either for elections or re-election. 

Even then, just as my egbon has demonstrated, we 

must practice politics of justice and fairness without 

bitterness and rancour. The revolution we are leading 

is a revolution of thought, it is a revolution of ideas. And 

we are saying, governance must always trump politics. 

When we make decisions, we must always put the 

interests of our people rst. 

Of course, you already know that my brother, the 

Governor of Osun State is from an opposing party, the 

All Progressives Congress (APC), while I belong to the 

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Despite this 

difference, we have accomplished things that people 

from the same party were unable to do. 

This is the revolution we are talking about. 

This latest collaboration also comes with dividends of good 

governance. When this road is completed, our people will 

be able to travel with ease between the states thereby 

enhancing trade and commerce. 

188

And as we always say in Oyo 

State, where roads go, 

development follows. So, in 

the next year or 

thereabouts, we will begin 

to see the development in 

real terms. 

I know we are not here to 

campaign, but there is a 

prophetic word from my 

brother and I know that Oyo 

State people are ready for 

Omituntun 2.0. So, we will 

allow God's will to be done. 

And on this note we will -ga ot 

deecorpoff the entire stretch of 

Osogbo-Iwo-Ibadan Road to 

the glory of the Almighty God 

and for the fo teneb 

the good people of Osun and 

Oyo States.

Public Transportation in Ibadan is largely by Taxis with Mini 

Buses, Tricycles and Okada (commercial motorcycles) 

playing major roles. Public transportation in Ibadan is 

characterized by huge Intercity transport operations 

especially at lwo Road, Ojoo, Challenge and Tollgate. 

There are three major parks in Ibadan which are poorly 

organised, dilapidated, without facilities for passenger 

convenience and unregulated hawking/trading activities. 

They constitute an environmental eyesore, are generally 

unsafe, unhygienic and hazardous. Activities of these parks 

encroach upon the carriageways and end up worsening the 

traffic conditions around major locations in Ibadan and Oyo 

state by extension. 

Ibadan however faces serious public transport issues such 

as on-street parking, on-street loading, bottleneck locations 

at junctions leading to congestion and absence of laybys & 

bus shelters. Intercity transport loading points lacks basic 

Passenger and infrastructural facilities such as terminal 

building, waiting area, loading bay, convenience, parking 

lot, etc. There is also encroachment of carriageway, space 

limitation, unhygienic surrounding and hawking/trading 

activities that poses health danger to passengers. 

These frustrating activities also spill onto the carriage way 

leading to the unending traffic congestion experienced by 

road users daily which in-turn reduces productivity, 

increase pollution, reduce economic growth. This could 

serve as a disincentive to a lot of investors. Therefore, the 

Oyo State Government is determined to restore order and 

sanity to the transport sector and change the face of 

Ibadan, while ensuring it continues to be the flagship of the 

Oyo state economy. 

Increasing economic activities and population growth of 

Ibadan City and Oyo State in general, there would be an 

increase in transport demand and present conditions are 

likely to get worse. A transport system that can be expanded 

with the growth of the Ibadan metropolis is necessary and 

needed.

GOVERNOR SEYI MAKINDE’S SPEECH 

AT THE COMMISSIONING OF THE 

CHALLENGE AND OJOO 

BUS TERMINALS, IBADAN

One of the things we knew Ibadan needed when we 

came into ofce was an effective transportation 

system. I remember how we went round and spoke to 

you, the good people of Oyo State, in 2019, just after 

we came into ofce. We made a case for having to 

demolish some buildings around here, and I thank you for 

listening to us then. 

We could not have accomplished any of these things 

without your support. So let me stop and say, thank 

you, my people, e seun, adupe. 

Thank you for keying into this vision. Of course, not 

everyone was seeing the big picture as we were. In fact, 

some people said the project was a misplaced priority, 

and they created lists of other projects that they thought 

we should have prioritised. Well, we knew better 

because, in our quest to engineer a modern Oyo State, 

we always relied on data, science, and logic. 

I promised Omi tuntun, 

are you experiencing Omi tuntun? 

Today is an exciting day, and I am delighted to be here, joined by my 

brother, His Excellency, Governor Godwin Obaseki. I want to 

especially thank His Excellency for journeying down from Edo State to 

be with us on this day as we commission two of the four bus terminals that 

we embarked on building about two years ago. 

The data showed that it was time to build a modern 

alternative to the existing transport system in Oyo 

State. 

Oyo State receives heavy trafc from all over the country. 

By virtue of its location, Ibadan has always been that 

town where travellers can layover either on their way out 

of the southwest or into the southwest. 

The data said it was time to build on that comparative 

advantage. 

2

2

Science supported the data; Oyo State has traditionally been a 

nodal region, and that geographical fact was not going to 

change. If anything, the growth in the population of Nigeria was 

going to further support the need to turn our comparative 

advantage into a competitive advantage. 

And when science and data align, logic always follows. We knew 

that we needed funds to carry out some of the other projects we 

were embarking on. Federal allocations have been dwindling over the 

years. We needed reliable ways to ensure that the state's Internally 

Generated Revenue remained stable and grew enough to support 

further development. 

So, we invested in projects that could yield returns into the state 

coffers, such as the rehabilitation of the Lekan Salami Sports Complex, 

Adamasingba, the ongoing Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hubs, and 

these bus terminals, which we are commissioning today. 

These terminals are not just about boarding buses. What we have 

done here is build a standard bus terminal as can be obtained 

anywhere in the world. This is why it comes equipped with amenities 

that will support economic activities and tourism. 

So, we are going the public-private-partnership route in a 

sustainable manner. The commissioning of these two bus terminals at 

Challenge and Ojoo marks a new dawn in transport systems in Oyo 

State. 

We are committed to redening good governance in Oyo State. 

With each project we commission, we continue to raise the bar. Yes, 

some people say this is the bare minimum, but if we can ensure that 

going forward, the good people of Oyo State reject anything less, 

then we can rightly say, “Our job here is done.” 

And on this note, I will yield the podium to my brother, the Executive 

Governor of Edo State, His Excellency Godwin Nogheghase 

Obaseki. After which we will commission the Ojoo Bus Terminal, and 

inaugurate the Omi Tuntun Mass Transit Buses. And then, take the 

maiden bus ride to Challenge and also commission the Modern 

Terminal at Challenge to the glory of God and the benet of the 

good people of Oyo State. 


We are building a legacy. At this point, the question some people 

will be asking is, how will it run? Who will be in charge? We hope it 

will not turn out like other government projects that will become 

moribund in no time. Well, we have taken some steps to ensure that 

this will not be the case.

REMARKS AT THE FLAG-OFF 

OF THE TWENTY-ONE-KILOMETRE 

AIRPORT AJIA NEW IFE EXPRESS ROAD 

WITH A SPUR TO AMULOKO 

274

You may have read the Mckinsey report on Nigeria's 

infrastructure requirement which said that as a 

nation, we need to invest over $31 billion every 

year for at least ten years for us to bridge our huge 

infrastructure decit. If we put that number in perspective, 

$31 billion is equivalent to over N11 trillion annually, that is 

larger than our national budget for 2020. 

This decit occurred because as a nation, we have steadily 

reduced how much we spend on building and repairing 

infrastructure while increasing how much we spend on 

recurring expenditure like payment of salaries. Therefore, if 

we are to put our country back on the path of economic 

growth, we must strategise on how to increase our spending 

on infrastructure. 

That is what we are doing here in Oyo State. The twentyone-kilometre 

Airport – Ajia – New Ife Express Road with a 

spur to Amuloko which we are here to ag-off today, is a 

result of our administration coming up with strategic ways of 

reducing our infrastructure decit. We call it the Alternative 

Project Funding Approach (APFA). 

As I explained during the budget signing last week, APFA is 

our way of funding some infrastructural projects in the state 

by having the contractors fund the projects with their own 

money while the state repays them over a period of time. 

What this entails is that the contractor carries the projects' 

risk. At the same time, we get quality delivery and quick 

completion of projects. 

And so for projects under the APFA, because of the nature 

of spending on the projects, we decided that it would be 

best to open up the bidding process a little more so that 

contractors outside of Oyo State can bid as well. We 

reached this decision because we are looking for private 

entities who have the wherewithal to complete the 

projects on schedule while at the same time, passing 

the tests of quality assurance. 

In the case of this twenty-one-kilometre Airport – Ajia – 

New Ife Express Road with a spur to Amuloko, the 

contract was awarded to Messrs Peculiar Ultimate 

Concerns Ltd at a total cost of Eight Billion, Five Hundred 

and Twenty Million, Nine Hundred and Nineteen 

Thousand, Seven Hundred and Seventy-Six Naira, Forty- 

One Kobo (N8,520,919,776.41). We have 

given them the mandate to complete the 

road in eighteen months, and they 

have promised to deliver. 

Good people of Oyo State, 

the contractors for this 

project from neighbouring 

Osun State, are willing 

275

and able to deliver on 

these projects. They will be 

bearing the risk of getting 

this project done in a 

timely manner while we 

pay them over the next 

twenty-nine months. So 

while they will complete the 

project in one year, we have 

the option to repay in over 

twice the time. 

We will continue to actualise 

named capital projects 

through budgetary 

allocation and have the 

additional option of 

carrying out other 

infrastructural projects 

outside of the budget using 

the Alternative Project 

Funding Approach. So you 

can look forward to other 

projects under this 

approach. 

Let me state that even 

when we are forced to 

look outside Oyo State for 

persons to execute the 

projects under APFA, we 

still put the interests of our 

people rst. 

276

For example, Peculiar Ultimate Concerns Ltd has agreed that the 

construction labour will come from Oyo State, and we are holding them 

to that agreement. 

Please permit me also to use this opportunity to re-address the criticism 

that trailed the cost of this contract. Some people had asked why the 

Airport-Ajia road costs more per kilometre than the Moniya-Iseyin 

road. Let me restate that when we want to make such comparisons, 

we should ensure that we are comparing apples to apples and not 

apples to oranges. 

One of the roads may appear longer, but when you visit the site, you will 

nd that the Airport-Ajia road has more hydraulic structures, what you 

will call bridges in lay man's terms. We will be embarking on the 

expansion and rehabilitation of these bridges as well. 

Our administration means business. We will drastically reduce the 

infrastructure decit in Oyo State in the shortest possible time. 

And this is how economies work: Investors will only go where they 

can be assured of prots. If we do not develop basic infrastructure like 

roads, it will affect the cost of production, which in turn means less prot 

for investors. So, we cannot be seriously discussing attracting 

investment into Oyo State when a majority of roads and other 

infrastructure are in a state of disrepair. 

On this note, I now ag off the total reconstruction of the twenty-onekilometre 

Airport – Ajia – New Ife Express Road with a spur to Amuloko 

to the Glory of God and the benet of the good people of Oyo State.

SPEECH OF THE AIRPORT MANAGER FOR COMMENCEMENT 

OF DUALISATION OF THE ACCESS ROAD OF THE AIRPORT 

BY OYO STATE GOVERNMENT UNDER THE 

LEADERSHIP OF ENGR. SEYI MAKINDE 

Ibadan Airport was built along the Alakia Route in the year 1982. 

Over the years, a lot of changes have been made to upgrade and 

make the airport live competitively with its contemporaries across the 

nation and in the world at large. The Federal Government over the 

years have made efforts at transforming the airport and all these 

efforts are acknowledged and appreciated, several projects are 

ongoing in the airport as we speak, all aimed at ensuring a safe and 

secure airport. 

Ibadan airport is strategic to trade and investment especially in the 

southwest by virtue of its location in the largest city in western Africa. 

Ibadan city is a hub for investment and trade of all sorts and the 

airport is a gateway to various locations and a viable alternative to 

the Lagos Airport which has obviously reached its peak in capacity. 

Therefore, all hands are on deck to make Ibadan Airport live up to its 

capacity and capability. 

The Oyo State Government under the leadership of His Excellency 

Engineer Oluseyi Makinde has shown over time that he has the political 

will to transform the airport from a Local Airport to International 

Airport with several State funded projects that have preceded this 

dualisation of the Access Road such as the Protocol Lounge, Terminal 

Clinic, procurement of a Fire Tender and several other logistics support. 

Hence, we can rest assured that this is not a political gimmick or farce 

and this project will see the light of day. 

The Dualisation of the road is a prerequisite for ease of increased 

trafc and cannot come at a better time when several airlines have 

indicated interests on doing business with the airport and the intentions 

of the state government is bare on the transformation of the airport to 

an international airport. 

The beautiful people of Ibadan deserve this and will be eternally 

grateful to His Excellency for this gesture as this will open the airport 

for several other investments which will in turn bring employment 

opportunities for indigenes and residents. 

Once again on behalf of the Management of the Federal Airports 

Authority of Nigeria Ibadan Airport, I want to deeply appreciate our 

Governor Engineer Seyi Makinde and his management team for this 

gesture and also pray that God grants him the grace to do more. 

Long live Oyo State! Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!

GOVERNOR SEYI MAKINDE'S REMARKS AT THE 

OFFICIAL FLAG-OFF OF THE DUALISTION OF THE 

AIRPORT ROAD/REHABILITATION OF ROADS 

AROUND IWO ROAD INTERCHANGE 

(DECEMBER 16, 2021) 

Each time we are commissioning or agging off the 

reconstruction of any road in Oyo state as we are 

doing today, I always like to remind the good 

people of Oyo state that this is another part of our 

vision to engineer a modern Oyo state. As forwardthinking 

people, they know the importance of road 

construction to development, wherever a new road 

construction goes – se mo oun to n ma tele 

…development ni. We have seen this happen since we 

completed the 65km Moniya – Ijaiye - Iseyin road, there 

has been an increase of economic activities, farm 

produce from Iseyin can easily be moved to Ibadan for 

onward movement to another part of the state and even 

outside the state. 

As similarly, the dualization of this Ibadan airport road 

will come with immense economic benets, especially 

because we are not building this 3.2km road in isolation. 

T h i s c o n t r a c t a l s o i n c l u d e s t h e 

rehabilitation/reconstruction of the adjoining access 

roads along the airport axis. In total, the work scope for 

this project is about 10.8km as the project includes the 

rehabilitation of spur roads around Iwo road 

interchange to Adegbayi road and the road from 

Oludare to Bishop Philips Academy. Let me use this 

opportunity to address some of the issues our people 

have raised about inner roads in Oyo state. 

In the past weeks, you will have noticed that the Oyo state 

Ministry of Works, Infrastructure and Transport has been 

working with the Local Government authorities to see that 

some of these roads are xed. Ti o ba ti de agbegbe ti 

yin, eyin na e ma e ti binu o si n bo na. Ti won o ba ti ma x 

inner roads to wa ni area yin, suru lo gba, eni suru - it will 

get to you. What we are doing here is engineering a 

modern Oyo state. E ripe baba wa Engineer ni won, emi 

na Engineer ni mi, awon kan ni Architect lawon. Emo pe 

Architect, won a kan se drawing ni, won a se model e de 

le gbe si bi kan. Sugbon Engineer, a ma nko nkan te ba 

sope ka ko engineer ma n ko nkan ni so a ma ko ona yi ba 

se so ni. 

We are building structures and systems that will lead to 

sustainable developments in Oyo state. And so we are 

working in such a way that whoever is coming behind will 

not need to lay another foundation but will continue from 

where we stopped. It took me several weeks to take this 

decision, every time because the previous administration, 

they awarded the expansion of the shoulder of this road 

pelu iyen ti won se lati onipepeye was awarded for, that 

portion of the contract – N200m. So I was asking myself, 

should we just leave it like that but after about six weeks. 

I'm sure distinguished Senator Agboola will remember 

several times taba ti n lo si aiport a bere si debate: should 

we spend this money now or should we just live with the 

expansion of just the shoulders for just N200m but 

eventually we decided to bite the bullet, ko n se bullet to 

ma n pa yan o. We decided pe, there are few things ta n 

se ni airport yi like we have seen airlines to je pe won o le 

sun overnight ni ibadan tori pe won o ni means lati f'epo 

sinu ballon won. So ati award contract lati se aviation fuel 

storage and dispensing facility. So awon aircraft, now 

they can sleep overnight. We have an airport ni bi yi to 

335

jepe, after ti ballon ba lo laaro otun d'irole or maybe 1 or 2 private 

aircraft lo le wa. But for this airport, lati wa sustainable, a plane must be 

taking off and landing minimum of every 30 minutes. 

So, if we have to achieve that, there are certain people ti a ni lati attract 

wa si bi yi and once we are able to attract those people, if there's a 

bottleneck to get into the airport it will affect the competitiveness of this 

airport so I took the decision that we will go ahead under the watch of this 

administration to dualize the Ibadan Airport road. So we have awarded 

the reconstruction of this road to Messrs Kopek construction limited for the 

sum of N4,998,939,148.08 and if you are wondering why kopek again 

well kopek ni Julius berger ti tiwa ni Oyo state because gbogbo ise ta ti 

gbe fun won l'oyo state they have delivered and are still delivering. 

So we will say that not only have they proved that they have the capacity 

to do a good job but they have already been awarded the contract for 

the rehabilitation of the Ibadan – Ife road by the Federal Government of 

Nigeria so this award by the Oyo State Government is an expansion of 

that project so it only makes sense for them to nish what they started and 

they promised us this will be delivered in 6 months. So on that note, I will 

yield this podium for Baba Omololu Olunloyo, he will say 1 or 2 things and 

then we will proceed, baba a lo ge tape yen. 

But let me say this, baba has been a pride to Ibadan and to Oyo state and 

awon arugbo ma n so wipe prophet ko un niyi nile e sugbon awa n fe ki 

prophet niyi nile e and all processes to ba ye ka se including Local 

Government o, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria o, Oyo State 

Government o, at the completion of this road it will be named Dr. Omololu 

Olunloyo Airport. 

So baba, its a (igba ti mo ba won soro, won ni ti Governor bati soro tan pe 

ko ye ki elo mi n soro sugbon won mo pe Governor lo ma n bi Governor. 

Igba ti baba se governor emi wani secondary school so I will yield the 

podium to baba.

emarks at the commissioning of the 

3.2 km Ibadan Airport Road Dualisation 

Project on Friday, March 3, 2023. 

We are here today to commission 

the 3.2 km Ibadan Airport Road, 

which is part of our vision of 

turning the surrounding areas of the 

Ibadan Airport into an aerotropolis. This 

project also covers the rehabilitation of 

adjoining roads along the airport axis and 

the rehabilitation of spur roads around the 

Iwo Road Interchange, including the 2 km 

road from Oludare to Bishop Phillips. 

Let me also mention that our vision goes beyond building roads. We 

have other ancillary projects, such as upgrading the Ibadan Airport, 

which forms part of our vision to make the Ibadan Airport a viable 

alternative to the Lagos Airport. We have already upgraded the 

facilities at the airport including upgrading the VIP lounge and 

providing a fire truck. We have installed a 500,000 litres aviation fuel 

storage and dispensing facility which will also be commissioned 

today so that flights which pass through this airport can refuel here in 

Ibadan. These actions will further unlock our state’s economic 

potential related to the aviation and transportation industry. 

When we came into office, I remember stating in my inaugural 

speech that depending over 60% on FAAC allocations was 

unsustainable. I promised then that we would take actions that would 

put Oyo State on the path to sustainable development. 

At different times, I have shared my dream 

of seeing aeroplanes take off and land at 

this airport every 30 minutes. But, I have 

also maintained that this will not be 

possible if we cannot pull the right crowd 

to the airport. The people we need to 

attract will only come here if we have 

created the path for them. So, roads like 

these ones we are commissioning today 

are vital 

337

I am happy to report that we have kept that promise. 

Our projects and policies have ensured that the Oyo State economy 

continues to grow. As of 2022, we have reduced Oyo State’s 

dependence on FAAC to just about 50%. 

This will be one of the last projects we will commission before the 

elections. And it is significant that we are taking another step towards 

opening our state to further economic growth. I can say that this is a 

transition project. 

On the one hand, it was conceived as one of the projects that will form 

the foundation for accelerated development, which we now call 

Omituntun 1.0. As has been mentioned, work on this road commenced 

in February 2022. We have completed the project in one year just in 

time to move into Omituntun 2.0. 

We believe that just as you gave us the 

mandate to serve you the first time, you 

will do so again in about eight days 

from now. 

Completing and commissioning this 

project also fulfils our promise꞉ To 

continue diligently serving the good 

people of Oyo State till the last day of 

our first tenure. As you can see, we are 

doing just that. 

In the spirit of promises, I also stated 

that when this road is completed, it will 

be renamed after a former Governor of 

Oyo State, Dr Omololu Olunloyo. So 

today, I have the honour of renaming 

this 3.2 km Ibadan Airport Road, Dr 

Omololu Olunloyo Airport Road. We 

are happy that Baba is here with us 

today and that God spared his life to 

see this road named after himself. 

As an administration, we will continue 

to honour our heroes and all leaders 

who served the state diligently. Their 

labours will not be forgotten. 

I will now invite my brother, Governor 

Nyesom Wike to deliver his remarks 

before we proceed to commission the 

Dr Omololu Olunloyo Airport Road to 

the glory of God and for the benefit of 

the good people of Oyo State.

a medium-density 

GRA project that was m1t1ated and executed 

by the administration of His Excellency, Governor 

Seyi Makinde under a new Government-Private 

sector partnership program - The innovative 

"LandSwap & Infrastructure Partnership Model". 

This model is a collaborative approach that 

maximizes value for The Oyo State Government on a 

fastrack completion basis for the purpose of 

precipitating IGR growth, activating dead capital 

assets in Oyo State, increasing housing availability 

for various classes of the population and 

catalyzing economic expansion. This is in tandem 

with the OMI-TUNTUN 1.0 accelerated development 

goals of this administration. 

The Engr. Lere Adigun GRA was executed by the Oyo 

State Government and a Private Sector-Led Infrastructure 

Partner. The Ministry of Lands, Housing & 

Urban Planning (as The Project Owner) represented 

the Oyo State Government while Allianz-WA 

Offshore Nigeria Limited (as The Infrastructure 

Partner) represented the Private Sector. The Project 

Owner contributed the Land Parcel (20.5 Hectares in 

this case) and facilitates all required governmental 

and regulatory deliverables (Oversight, Allocation 

Letters, Certificate of Occupancies, etc) while The 

Infrastructure Partner provides 100% funding and 

execution of the full infrastructure emplacement and 

longterm facilities management of the GRA. The final 

product (fully serviced plots) is now split according to 

the valued contribution of each partner so as to 

recoupcapital investments via sales to members of 

the public. 

The Engr. Lere Adigun GRA is the Pilot Program for 

testing the LandSwap Model using existing 

governmental structures & processes. The Model will 

be continuously improved to ensure ever-increasing 

and maximum benefits for the people of Oyo State. 

The following infrastructure is provided. 

• About One hundred and forty (140) Serviced 

• 

Plots 

Maximum future occupation enablement for 

200 upper middle class houses

tasked with longterm care of the GRA. The facilities to 

be provided in the GRA include 

• Hospitals 

• Shopping-Mall 

• Event-Center 

• Recreational facility center furnished with 

convenient Children playing-ground, 5-aside 

Soccer court, Swimming-Pool, comfortable 

Basketball/ Soccer Courts and Gym House. 

DEEDS OF RESTRICTIONS (DOR) 

To ensure uniformity in compliance, aesthetic value 

retainment and sustained future property values, the 

new GSM LandSwap Model stabilizes the GRA 

system with the provision ofan Harmonized Deeds of 

Restrictions (DOR) that is managed for success on 

behalf of residents. A 25-year Infrastructure 

Partnership deal was sealed between the State 

government and Allianz-West in October 2021 to 

ensure an effective and long-term maintenance 

culture of the GRA. This absolves The Oyo State 

Government from recurring expenditure in servicing 

GRA infrastructure and places full responsibility of 

funding and care with the Private Sector. The long 

timeline also allows the Infrastructure Partner the 

commercial confidence to build additional 

recreational facilities, improve quality, manage the 

GRA, and successfully recoup new investments. This 

win-win approach allows the State to focus on 

creating more GRAs and awakening all dead capital 

assets within its territorial boarders.

SENATOR RASHIDI ADEWOLU LADOJA GRA

The Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja GRA Project 

Oyo State, home to about 10 million people and Ibadan being the 3rd largest city in West 

Africa, has been experiencing immense growth and expansion in recent times. The city 

is historically the seat of government dating back to the Western Region with several 

other peculiar factors making her interesting and a great prospect for real estate 

investments. 

The Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja GRA is a proposed residential development 

situated along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway, on the outskirts of the city of Ibadan, Oyo 

State. The GRA is designed to accomodate 584 serviced plots within a gated community 

with green areas, roads, adequate security, and provision of the water treatment plant, 

power, street lighting, roads and drainage infrastructure. 

Senator Rashidi Ladoja GRA is a regeneration development project aimed at facilitating 

rapid urbanization of the expanse of land adjoining the Lagos - Ibadan expressway and 

providing citizens of the State with affordable housing fitted with the necessary 

infrastructure and amenities to serve the new community. 

The development objective is to contribute to the vision of the Oyo State Government for 

the provision of affordable and durable, eco-friendly and urban residential developments 

for citizens residents of Oyo State. 

The project is a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) collaboration between the Oyo State 

Government and First Investment Development Company essentially for the provision 

of site and services for infrastructure development. The comprehensive vision for 

Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja GRA is "to design, develop and deliver quality and 

durable infrastructure that accelerate urbanization, optimization, optimize land 

use and maximize the market value of land with increasing returns". 

373

374

The GRA will become a benchmark for sustainable housing and infrastructure development in 

Oyo State and a unique reference point for future real estate developments in the State and will 

provide for adequate and modern security infrastructure, perimeter fence and access 

management control to prevent access by uninvited people into this community which 

comprises schools, worship centres, green areas, civic centres, clinic, street light infrastructure 

etc. 

Senator Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja GRA is located along the busy Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and 

traverses a total land area measuring approximately 99 Hectares with the following developments 

in close vicinity: 

• British American Tobacco 

• Oriental Foods Industry Limited 

• Eminent Quarry Limited and 

• First Technical University 

The development is situated within an easily accessible landscape making it possible to connect 

to existing public infrastructure to serve future expansion needs and population growth of the 

development. 

The scope of work for the project includes the provision of site and services infrastructure for the 

entire development, including power, roads, water reticulation, gatehouse and boundary fence 

construction. 

Road infrastructure 

Construction of Primary Roads 

The scope of works, as it relates to road networks, includes providing, laying, and compacting 

asphaltic concrete wearing course to a thickness of 40mm carriageway for primary roads. It also 

includes the construction of drains to cater for run-off and stormwater within the development. 

The primary roads will provide access to specific plots. 

375

Construction Of Secondary Roads 

The infrastructure partner is expected to 

provide, lay and compact asphaltic 

wearing course with 44mm carriage way 

for all secondary roads within the 

development. The secondary roads will 

provide access from the main 

expressway to the development. 

Water Reticulation 

The infrastructure partner is expected to 

construct and provide all systems and 

accessories required for water 

reticulation considering specific uses 

around the development. It I expected 

that the development will generate and 

distribute water for use by all residents, 

without reliance on external supply. 

Provision Of Drainage 

FIDC is expected to construct full concrete 

lined drains as detailed in the project design 

drawings. These drains are to be constructed

Remarks by His Excellency Seyi Makinde, the Executive Governor of Oyo State, at the Flag-Off of the Construction of Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub 

at Fasola, Oyo West Local Government Area on Friday, June 4, 2021 

When we came into government, we were determined to rebuild the Oyo State economy. We chose to use our areas of comparative and 

competitive advantage to drive the growth of our economy. This was what dictated our choice of agribusiness as one of the drivers. 

Our decision was based on available data and logic. Oyo State has the arable land size and the climatic conditions to support all types of agribusiness 

endeavours. We knew that if we signaled to the investing community through our policies and policy implementation that we are open for business, they 

would come to us. 

And so, we set up and gave life to a new agency – the Oyo State Agribusiness Development Agency (OYSADA) and got a seasoned agribusiness 

professional, Dr Debo Akande, to run that agency. 

This flag-off of the construction of the Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub that we are performing today, is a testament to the fact that we made the right 

decisions. It is proof that when we say “Oyo State is ready for business,” we are not just mouthing meaningless words. Our doors are wide open, come in 

and talk to us, share your ideas with us. If they are great ideas, we are willing to collaborate with you. So, I am indeed excited to be here. 

For this project, we are working with Brains & Hammers, a Nigerian real estate company with proven capacity to execute projects at this scale. 

Let me mention at this point that Fasola is just one of the nine farm settlements we have in Oyo State which have been left moribund for years. So, this 

ceremony we are performing today speaks to another promise that we made to the people of Oyo State. That we will ensure that we recover and extract 

value from all moribund government assets or abandoned projects. 

We really do not care who started the project, we do not care who abandoned the project, we will resuscitate it and give our people value for it. We are 

determined to put an end to the plague of abandoned and moribund projects littering our investment landscape in Oyo State. 

So, here at Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub, if you have had the opportunity to go round this land, you will find that it is such an ideal location for an 

agribusiness and agro tourism hub. 

In one year, when we come back to commission this project, this 1,000-acre land would have been transformed into a thriving agribusiness industrial hub 

with ranching and grazing fields, crop production and processing facilities, and a leisure and entertainment hub including a nine-hole golf course. This 

place will be self-sufficient, so it will also include a fire station, mini-clinic, innovation hub, and residential real estate. 

Like I said before, this is just one of nine. We have already contracted out the Eruwa and Akufo Agribusiness Industrial Hubs. We had major administrative 

and bureaucratic bottlenecks that delayed work out there but those have finally been cleared and I am sure we will start getting visuals of the work going on 

there soon. There are six others which we intend to also convert into agribusiness industrial hubs. Also, we have several other tourism sites that can be 

converted into tourism centres. So, this is another call to remind you that Oyo State is still open for business. 

On this note, I declare the construction of Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub officially commenced to the glory of God and for the benefit of the good 

people of Oyo State. 

Thank you.

Omituntun.Yes, we promised Omituntun, and we are delivering Omituntun. 

Back in 2019, when we came into office, four years seemed like such a long time to many people. But we knew how short four years would be because of 

how much work we had to do. Our infrastructure deficit was huge. At the same time, resources were dwindling. 

Yet, we kept in clear focus the task of ensuring that Oyo State lived up to its moniker, "Pacesetter State". We knew that to engineer a modern Oyo State, we 

must engage the private sector and development agencies. 

And now, look how far we have come! 

We have run very inclusive governance. Whether in Ibadan, Ogbomoso, Oke-Ogun, Oyo or even lbarapa, you can point to state government projects in your 

zone. In fact, I have made it a point that when I meet people who say they are from Oyo State, I ask them where in Oyo. Once they name it, we can match 

their zone with a project. 

Not to worry, we will soon officially flag off our campaign, and then we will talk about all we have done to change the economic landscape in Oyo State. 

Today, we are here to add another milestone to our achievements as we flag off the Construction of the Oyo State Government (OYSG) and Shell Nigeria 

Gas Ltd (SNG) Gas Project. This project is for constructing a Pressure Reduction & Metering Station (PRMS). 

Through this project, we will create a new gas distribution infrastructure network in Oyo State. This infrastructure will deliver gas to industrial, 

manufacturing and commercial companies. It will also serve new emerging industrial corridors and industrial parks/zones, Independent Power Projects, 

and provide stable power generation for industrial and residential use within the state. 

People might ask, how much is Oyo State spending on this? Well, the project will be funded by SNG on a Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) basis. 

SNG will transfer the infrastructure to Oyo State after 15 years. 

One thing we have always done is to ensure that all our projects are interconnected. For example, when we said we would drive our economy through 

agriculture, some people thought we would start buying fertiliser and other inputs and distributing them to phantom farmers. 

But that was the old way of doing things. We chose instead to take the infrastructure approach. Instead of handing money to people, we built the roads they 

needed to link our farming communities to markets. We also attracted big businesses willing to work with our farmers as off-takers. While at the same time 

subscribing to donor-assisted agricultural programmes. And so, we linked agriculture to road construction and rural development. 

With the flagging off of the construction of gas infrastructure, working with Shell Nigeria Gas Ltd today, we are taking the same approach. Attracting big 

businesses means jobs. Oyo State can now boast of hosting another international business. So, if they tell you that no business has come into Oyo State 

since Seyi Makinde became governor, you can point to this one. 

Beyond that, this infrastructure is linked to our 'Light up Oyo' project. 

Of course, people keep asking, why not solar-powered street lights? They think that because sunlight is free, the infrastructure to run solar-powered lights is 

also free or cheap. But when you ask them what happened to the solar-powered lights of past administrations, they have nothing to say. 

And so, for the 'Light up Oyo' project, we are using a more efficient tribrid power system. Right now, we are installing gas generators, and the gas 

infrastructure is already being installed. And like we Christians say, "all things work out for good". 

I want to thank the management of Shell Nigeria Gas for choosing Oyo State. When we signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for this project in 

2020, some people may have thought it was just one of those "audio" MoUs. But now we are seeing the physical manifestation of the project. We have 

already developed a Gas Masterplan for the entire state that will make gas available in all zones. We have been told that first gas will be delivered within 15 

months from the PMRS being constructed here. 

By God's grace, we will come back here to commission the project. Because we are confident that the people of Oyo State will give us four more years as 

we upgrade to Omituntun 2.0. 

And now, we will proceed to officially flag off the construction of the gas project to the glory of God and for the benefit of the good people of Oyo State.
