“The level of work done on the road within the spate of time the contractor started from the Ibadan end is commendable, we now travel to Ibadan within an hour while vehicles do not get damaged like they used to, when the road was bad.

“Those transporting their goods and services to Ibadan and other cities like farmers,traders and Aso-Ofi sellers and so on are very happy for the transformation that has happened on the road,we thank God for giving us a listening Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde, who has shown enough commitment to the welfare of the people in the areas of social infrastructures, qualitative education, which is free,free primary healthcare and agricultural development”.

“It has been very long we had it this good and we are grateful to the Seyi Makinde government of Oyo State, our joy will know no bound if the Iseyin-Ogbomoso road that was recently announced is awarded to a good contractor and work starts and completed in earnest.

“Iseyin-Ogbomoso road is a window of opportunities in economical, educational, agricultural and health wise for our people.

Our people in Iseyin, Itesiwaju, Kajola, Iwajowa,Saki and even Ibarapa areas will be able to reach out to other States and cities like Kwara ,Osun and Northern States as well as cities like Ilorin,Offa, Ogbomoso, Osogbo,Iwo,Ede among others for businesses and related causes.”
