He cited Lagos-Abeokuta expressway, Sagamu -Ogijo road and Sango Ota- Idiroko road as three of the federal roads receiving attention in the state, saying the contractor handling Lagos-Abeokuta road, Julius Berger, would soon return to site after it left last year.

He said the contractor handling Sagamu- Ogijo road had done 23km of the 30.04km road, hoping that work would be completed before the end of the year.

FMC Medical Director Prof. Adewale Olomu hailed the minister and Federal Government, noting that they had done more road repair, rehabilitation and reconstruction across the country amid paucity of funds than predecessors.
