Residents of the Elenusonso community in Ibadan, Oyo State, are begging the Oyo State Government under the leadership of Engr Seyi Makinde to ease the hardship they face in their community by fixing their bad roads.

In an interview with Tribune Online, the residents plead with the Oyo state government to enable them to enjoy the dividends of democracy by fixing the bad roads and providing other social and welfare facilities that can enhance the livelihood of residents of the Elenusonso community.

In a press statement, the General Landlord Association Chairman, Oloye Adebayo Babajide, noted that the community leaders have made several attempts to get the attention of the Oyo State government to the Elenusonso community but have not been successful.


“Several letters had been written and delivered to the governor’s office through the Chief of Staff of Office, Ministry of Public Works and Transport; Oyo State Roads Maintenance Agency (OYSROMA), calling their attention and at the same time rigorously appealing to the Oyo State government timely intervention to fix, construct and TAR the road.


“Sad enough, the Oyo State government through its agencies is yet to reciprocate our yearning, suffering, hardship and occasional termination of pregnancies, broken legs battered bodies, and accidental death of some of our community members as a result of bad and deplorable conditions of the roads.”

Noting the economic importance of the roads that lead into and out of the Elenusonso community, Oloye Babajide expressed the plea of all residents to the state government to save them from the hardship the state of the road poses to their livelihood in the community.



The statement reads:

Distinguished press men and women; A constitutionally recognised community such as Elenusonso land is expected to benefit and enjoy the dividends of democracy like good roads; health care facilities; good schools, electricity, potable water, and social welfare facilities that create employment and empowerment opportunities.

Alas, the reverse is the case, as none of the above is far beyond the reach of the entire populace in these communities.

No government facilities can be seen or found within the vast communities that constitute Elenusonso land from NIHORT to Elenusonso terminal point for the past fifty (50) years.

Elenusonso Community expressed serious concern ( neglect since Late Alhaji Adegoke Adelabu named it) over the deplorable condition of the roads from Kolobo-Ayedade Road, Adejumo Road, Adejumo Road, Alawoye-Abese road, Agoro road, Gegelose road, Oke-Elenusonso, Elenusonso road, Odufemi-via Olorombo road, Mowunmi-Ajobiare-Ojuka road, Akotipopo-odo Eleranko road, Odemi to Ido local.

Several letters had been written and delivered to the governor’s office through the Chief of Staff of Office, Ministry of Public Works and Transport; Oyo State Roads Maintenance Agency (OYSROMA), calling their attention and, at the same time, rigorously appealing to the Oyo State government timely intervention to fix, construct and TAR the road.
