I just read that the government has approved a contract for the rehabilitation of Akure to Ilesha road. That is a good development. Welldone to the government.
But what this road actually need is not just a rehabilitation, but complete dualization. Dualization from Ilesha through Akure to Benin city. Even the rehabilitation is between Akure and Ilesha, what the happens to Akure to Benin? The road is in a terrible state. This road is a very busy one and it would do travelers a world of good if it it dualized. The road several years ago was dualized from Ibadan and when it got to Ilesha was discontinued and the rest of it is a very narrow road to Benin. Please, if any reader knows any 'oga at the top' that can make this happen, let them know about this.
