A dilapidated road linking the Mayfair axis to Parakin and Eleyele areas of Ile-Ife, Osun State is set to receive a facelift as the Maye of Yoruba land, Dr. Ramon Adedoyin awarded its rehabilitation.
The distinguished business mogul, His Royal Eminence Dr. Adedoyin has contracted a road construction company Tixlex Road Network Limited for the rehabilitation of the road which has over the years become an eyesore and a nightmare to the people of the communities.
Our correspondent who was on a visit to the site, reported that those who ply the road daily were ecstatic and full of encomiums and prayers for the sponsor of the road’s rehabilitation exercise, calling on other well-meaning Ife sons and daughters to take cue from this philanthropic gesture of the Ife-born billionaire.
They recounted their harrowing experiences on the dilapidated road as repeated calls to the concerned authorities over time had not yielded any positive results.
The contract for the rehabilitation of the road was awarded for 10million naira.
It was gathered that the first phase of the rehabilitation project which began on Tuesday, July 14, is from Mayfair junction to the Ramon Adedoyin College of Engineering and Technology, Oduduwa University Campus, Parakin, Ile-Ife (old polytechnic site).
In an interview with the Maye of Yoruba land, Dr Adedoyin disclosed that his resolve to rehabilitate the road is in line with his corporate social responsibility and his love for the people of Ile-Ife, especially Parakin area.
The Maye then promised that the road rehabilitation shall be in phases, covering the whole of Parakin Estate of Ile-Ife, Osun State.
