Explaining to the Commissioner , he said Kobape-Masa axis had been constantly neglected by past administrations; and had felt the presence of government last for over 2 decades.
" Thanks to chief Osoba for fixing a 33-KVA trunk line we are enjoying on the axis today.
"Apart from the 1.5Km committed acquisition boundaries, the strategic and prime status of the axis is expected to generate an estimated #30 billion in direct and indirect taxes into the coffers of the Ogun State government within the next three years, when the 3 kilometres single lane road is fixed.
"Apart from the attendant expected revenues from that axis, the road would also serve as a veritable means on decongesting the kobape/Abeokuta expressway and also aid urban rural migration, which would in the long run decongest Abeokuta metropolis.
He said the Company will also extend the consultations to the ministry of Agriculture, finance, Housing, urban and His Excellency, the Executive Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun mfr.
