We need good road, not food palliatives – Ogun monarch

The Olu of Lisa Oba Najeemdeen Odugbemi (Odu1) has urged the Ogun State Government to work towards rehabilitating Lisa Road which is currently in bad shape.

Lisa Road is approximately a 10.5 kilometre stretch to the Arcade ground of the 2005-2006 Belview plane crash.

He said that since he became the king of Lisa, he had been self-financing the projects in the community without any assistance from the government

Odugbemi who was speaking during a courtesy visit to his palace by the executive officers of the Ogun state chapters of the Nigerian Union of Journalists and National Association of Women Journalists, said: “Our major problem is the issue of bad road network from Ijoko to Lisa, I want the Governor and the President to come to our aid for this issue”.

“I don’t need any money from the government, we are not fully fed, but we are not hungry either, what we need from them is roads, even though, they should forget about the light for now, give us a road from Ijoko to Lisa we will appreciate that”.

“I know our President and Governor are listening to people, only what we can do to support them is pray for them, as they are doing in the US, a citizen will say God bless America every morning”.
