One of the reasons  Osun State Governor Gboyega Oyetola has remained in the good books of Osun people is the massive infrastructural development that the state has witnessed since he  assumed duty in November, 2018. 

Though quite a number of projects are being undertaken by Oyetola, but clearly, the flagship project of the massive investment in upgrading of infrastructure in recent months, especially in Osogbo, the state capital, is the dualisation of the 45km Osogbo-Ikirun-Kwara State boundary road.

Since the state government signed a N17.8 billion contract agreement for the road, it has been receiving a lot of commendations from its citizens, especially those who use the Osogbo-IIorin road.

The contractor handling the project is very much on site and he is doing well on the project, which is expected to be completed within 24 months. 

The government has been doing its best to fund the project.

The people of the state are equally urging the governor to key into the recently announced NNPC roads projects to enable the completion of the Osogbo (Old-garage) to Ikirun junction road and Ikirun-Ila Odo-Kwara State boundary road.
