Road: No plan to demolish Ilesa Central Mosque – Adeleke

By Funmi Ojo

Governor Ademola Adeleke has responded to the appeal of the Ijesa Muslim Community on the ongoing Ilesa road dualisation, reassuring the Muslim faithful that there is no plan to demolish the Ilesa Central Mosque.

The Governor who spoke through his Spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, noted that the assurance given during the ‘Ipade Imole’ remains.

He urged the Muslim ummah not to entertain any fear as the mosque would remain intact as only the extended canopies would be affected.

The Governor has also directed officials of the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure to interface with the Muslim leaders on the subject matter. 

While commending stakeholders for actively supporting the ongoing dualisation at Ilesa, the Spokesperson explained that the Governor is committed to the implementation of the multi-billion naira Infrastructure upgrade with a focus on local content and active community engagement and collaboration.
