Prince Abiodun also announced that his administration has re-awarded the reconstruction of Awolowo Road in Ikenne, following the inability of the initial contractor to complete the project due to his failing health.
He also added that Phase 3 of the Sagamu-Iperu-Ode-Saapade Road has been awarded, promising that the project would be completed on time.
He said: "I am saddened by the change of events regarding the contract we awarded for Awolowo Way. The contractor is indisposed at the moment, and God owns good health. Because of that, he can't complete that contract. I have ordered that the contract be cancelled and re-awarded to another contractor. Very soon, that road project will be completed.
"We have also awarded the road from Ode to Isara; from that police station to Isara. The contractor will soon start work as soon as the rain stops.
"We have also awarded the contract from Ilara to Ilishan. The road that was affected by the airport is about 8 kilometres long. The contractor has resumed and commenced work. The road will pass through Ode to Akaka; it is a very long road. By the grace of God, that road will soon be completed.
"I also know that you are aware we have awarded Phase 3 of the Sagamu-Iperu-Ode-Saapade Road, and the contractor has started work on it. By the grace of God, that road will be completed."
The Gateway State Governor said that his administration appreciates the people of Isara for their immense contributions to the success of his administration, adding that he will continue to support the town and the people in their quest to develop it.
The governor donated N20 million towards the development of Isara-Remo, even as he promised to celebrate the next edition of the festival with the people of the town.
Earlier in his remarks, the Odemo of Isara-Remo, Oba Adebose Mayungbe, commended the sons and daughters of the town for their love and support, thanking Governor Abiodun for his love for his people and the state as a whole.
