Ogun State Executive Council has approved the construction of four roads in Ogun West and Ogun East Senatorial District of the state.

The approval of the roads was part of the efforts of the present administration in the state towards ensuring development in road infrastructure across the state.

A statement in Abeokuta said the executives were guided by the viability and condition of the roads, as well as the socio-economic effects of the deplorable condition of the roads.

The newly approved roads are Oke Ola Road in Imeko, Ibooro-Imasayi-Igan-Okoto-Ayetoro Road, and Ado-Odo-Ikoga road in Ogun West Senatorial District. 

Others are Molusi College Road in Ijebu-Igbo as well as Igan Road in Ago Iwoye in Ogun East Senatorial district of the State.
