He made the disclosure to the Kosofe Post on Wednesday while responding to residents’ outcry over the deplorable condition of Anibaba, Odutan, Adebimpe, and Olanrewaju streets, among others.
He said, “Infrastructural development is a continuous exercise by the government, but because of the constraints occassioned by the availability of funds, road construction can only be done one after the other.”

According to him, “At least most of the roads mentioned in Ikosi Isheri LCDA, aside Church Avenue, have been done in the past. But the government of Samiat Abolanle Bada is first ensuring that the link roads are done before moving to the inner roads. It’s turn by turn.
“I can assure you that work will soon commence on Anibaba Street. Then, we can begin to agitate for more, especially the link road to Adebimpe Street, which will be Olanrewaju Street in no distant time.”
He noted further that he was instrumental in the construction of some of the aforementioned roads, including the construction of Adebimpe Street during Hon. Afolabi Kazeem’s reign in 2016.
“However, we will continue to agitate for more infrastructural development in our community as the availability of funds improves,” Gbadegoke assures residents.
