He noted, “As we were coming here (Ilaro) today our people were baffled with the neglect of infrastructure here, the roads leading to Ilaro, the capital of Ogun West is in terrible shape, in fact there is no single road that is good in the whole of Ogun West despite the fact that they are putting bridges even where they are not necessary. We don’t know our offence as a people but the end has come to it because we are prepared to give all it takes to get what it is ours”.
