The chairman of the Idomila Elders Council, Kunle Sanni, urged the government to intervene, stating that the community had voted overwhelmingly for the emergence of Governor Dapo Abiodun and expected him to address their long-standing request.

The community members also noted that they had attempted to fill the potholes with bags and broken blocks, but the road remains in a terrible state, hindering access to essential amenities such as the market, schools, and healthcare facilities.

The road construction, which began from the market through Dipo Dina Stadium, was abandoned at the residence of the Awujale and paramount ruler of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona.

The community appealed to the government to repair the road, citing the economic and social impact of the deplorable road conditions on their daily lives.
