OgaTheTop2:Not true. The op do not even do enough justice to the situation. The posted part is just a portion. The road is about 4 to 6km from Ijegun to Ijagemo. There are portions of the road that no car passes through for now till dry season. The population of the community is more than 20000, should be upto 10times of that, that is, about 200000 or more. The town starts from somewhere after Ologun Bus stop down to Oko Obi. Though, we can't disprove the fact that some were given peanuts to sell their votes, however, there is no real opposition in that community. The only time PDP showed any sign of seriousness was during 2015 election. Also, there is a general belief(rightly or wrongly) that if people vote en masse for the winning party, they will be remembered soon in terms of infrastructure. In my own view, the reason why the community never gets any major benefits from the state or LGA is due to proximity with the LGA itself. The LGA is in Ojo, LCDA is at Iba, the Ward is under an unknown street in Iba, so wẹ have 2 populated towns(Ijagemo And Ijedodo having no connecting road between the other) to be politically under a street that no one knows where it is situated. Also, there is no road that connects either of the 2towns to the LGA or LCDA, you have to drive down to Ijegun to Ikotun then Igando before moving down to the LGA. If Alimosho (Igando Ikotun LCDA) can push for the two towns to be under it (I don't know how feasible that is), development should get to the area sooner than later. Cc: Bibianna (I hope I got her moniker right), she knows little about the community too, maybe she might have some pictures to backup the op. 1 Like |

Re: Heartwrecking Pictures Of Ijegun-ijagemo Road by Cantonese: 12:49am On Oct 29, 2020 |
OlujobaSamuel: May I ask if there is no councillor there? If there is a councillor there, is his job not to inform the LG or LCDA? Secondly when they campaigned for the election, did the governor, federal and state.assembly members not get to those areas? Did they not make campaign promises? If it is so, why have they failed to fulfil their promises? It is a shame when we hear that a certain organisation makes 20 billion from collecting taxes every year from Lagos. Lagos on its own makes over 200 billion from taxes alone and yet we see such organisation in a city like that. Ambode would have taken Lagos to the next level. Have you seen the jobs done in areas like Igando? Ikola command, etc? |
Re: Heartwrecking Pictures Of Ijegun-ijagemo Road by OlujobaSamuel: 1:10am On Oct 29, 2020 |
Cantonese:You know LGA election is usually out of the regular electoral season, so the awareness isn't there. Most of the time, or should I say all of the time, there is no elected councillor living in the community, so people hardly know them except those that are familiar with the political unit. Only one councillor was once a resident since 2decades plus that I've been there, and he could not cope at the end of the day, because he is not better than he was, sometimes late for functions or things passed him by before he got to know, and people expected so much for such a post. The political unit of the APC is controlled by the indigenous people of the community, so they see contrary view as trying to take away their food, we have tried to change the political narrative but those that can help(financial backbone) are mostly sympathetic to the ruling party. No governorship aspirants ever campaigned in the community, only Jimi Agbaje(PDP) 2015 gave a cameo appearance. Ambode never looked at the area for anything, the last govt intervention before last year was during Fashola, when he was promoting Ambode, 125trips of sand fillings to grade the road and according to what we heard, it was more than that but some people took the fund. Last year or early this year, when some road rehabilitation was going on, the rubble were brought to fill some portion of the road, although it wasn't spread, community raised fund to get a grader to spread it, then the leftover was spread manually. I haven't seen any house of representatives or senate campaign there, but I know of house of assembly. |

Cantonese:Lol, on the issue of tax, they almost mobbed govt officials distributing land use charge last year, there is a makeshift wooden bridge made through community effort. So I once told them that you guys ought not to be using this bridge to share tax, you should have told those that sent you the situation of things. I never knew some people picked that up, so they came again the next day and people turned on them, they had to turn back. The only tax I know people are not paying is the ones on shops(tenament rate), any other one that is collected directly by the state, they will come for it. |

OlujobaSamuel: My brother what bothers me is that we hear so many good stories of how Lagos is a mega city with everywhere well built up. I know that Ijagemo area. That area can connect Ojo barracks at the back and roads can connect Festac and Okota from there if the major road is built. Look at Abaranje as far as Okerube. Notice how bad the link road there is leading to Okerube. Luckily I noticed that a small road has been connected between Okerube and Iba expressway at Akesan area. When roads are built, areas are opened up. Comnerce will thrive and traffic holdups vanish. One is forced to ask why some people live in Lagos but there is no appearance of Lagos in the areas where they reside. With a very good road passing through Ijagemo lives will be better for those living within and around its environs. Same goes for Ijedodo. Anyway once again I think corruption has dealt a very wicked blow on this country. Corruption is the principal problem. The people there to should let their votes matter during elections and not way to collect the peanuts that enslave them all. Lastly I think people who live around those areas should take protests to the governor's office and the state assembly. |

Re: Heartwrecking Pictures Of Ijegun-ijagemo Road by OlujobaSamuel: 9:04am On Oct 29, 2020 |
Cantonese:As you rightly said, corruption is the issue. We have so many people of influence that can help but they preferred their pockets to community pocket as long as they can easily find their way through the road, changing cars is no issue for them. There has been series of protest to the state govt with many televised by media houses(Channels, TVC, Galaxy, Mitv), print media and radio houses, but all we get is lip service from the govt. They send in some guys in the name of survey and disappear till a renew pressure is mounted. SanwoOlu also sent in people early this year, a PS, SA and some others, promised as usual, but yet to see it materialised. I currently live outside there but my business is there, and I find it difficult transporting goods down there, aside paying exorbitant amount to bikers or commercial vehicles, you have to pray that your goods do not get submerged in the water. |
