Ogun Exco Approves Seven Road Projects, Renames Secretariat Complex “Revenue House,” Confirms Traditional Rulers
The Ogun State Executive Council has approved seven key road projects and the reconstruction of a major office complex, alongside the confirmation of several traditional rulers, as part of efforts to deepen infrastructure development and strengthen grassroots governance.
The approvals were granted during the State Executive Council meeting held on Friday at the Executive Chamber, presided over by Governor Dapo Abiodun.
Seven Road Projects Across Senatorial Districts
Council ratified the rehabilitation and construction of seven roads strategically located across the three senatorial districts of the state to enhance connectivity and stimulate socio-economic growth.
The approved projects include:
Molipa Expressway Roundabout to Ibadan Garage via Ejirin–Folagbade Roundabout, Ijebu-Ode – 2.3 kilometres, 10.3 metres wide
Bible College Road, Ota (Ado-Odo/Ota LGA) – additional rehabilitation works
Ajaka Road via Awolowo Market, Sagamu – 870 metres, 8 metres wide
Gbadebo Street, Hospital Road, Ayegbami, Sagamu – 900 metres, 8 metres wide
Okenla Street, off Imoru Road, Ijebu-Ode – 0.53 kilometres, 10 metres wide
Yemogun Street, Ogere, Ikenne LGA – 1.25 kilometres, 7.3 metres wide
Right-hand side of Carwash–Moore Junction Road, Adatan, Abeokuta – reconstruction
The projects are expected to ease traffic congestion, improve mobility, and unlock economic opportunities for residents and businesses across benefiting communities.
Secretariat Complex Renamed “Revenue House”
In addition to the road projects, Council approved the reconstruction and completion of the Block E Office Complex at the State Secretariat, Oke Imosan, Abeokuta (Phase 1).
The complex has been redesignated as “Revenue House”, reflecting its intended role as a central hub for revenue-related agencies. The facility is designed to provide a modern and efficient working environment aimed at strengthening internally generated revenue and enhancing inter-agency operational performance.
The initiative aligns with the Abiodun administration’s broader public sector reform agenda focused on infrastructure modernisation and fiscal sustainability.
Confirmation of Traditional Rulers
As part of measures to reinforce traditional institutions and grassroots governance, the Council confirmed the following appointments:
Prince Raheem Afolabi Ogunlaja – Nloku of Iraye, Remo North LGA
Prince Tajudeen Adeoye Olukunle – Onisale of Isale, Gbokoto, Yewa North LGA
Prince Obajimi Sunday Olatunji – Alodo of Ado, Sagamu
Prince Dr. Adesegun Adedapo Ogunsola – Lowa Ibu of Batoro, Sagamu
Prince (Elder) Moses Oludotun Fadairo – Baale of Orile Oko
The confirmations underscore the administration’s recognition of traditional rulers as critical stakeholders in community development, security architecture, and socio-cultural cohesion across Ogun State.
