Adeshina, according to a statement made available to our correspondent, disclosed this while highlighting the condition of roads in the state in a monitored radio interview.
He emphasised the state government’s commitment to impartiality by ensuring an equitable distribution of dividends of democracy across the state.
He advised citizens of the state to be patient with the state government, saying all roads cannot be rehabilitated at once but rather progressively.
He highlighted that road rehabilitation is an ongoing process and the Ogun State Public Works Agency is considering prioritising primary roads before addressing secondary ones.
“100-year problems cannot be solved in one day. I appeal for your patience; the roads are many, and we have to start somewhere. Once we’ve started and continued at this pace, in the next few years, we will have covered a lot of ground,” he said.
Adeshina disclosed further that the government is committed to completing the other side of every dual-carriageway that has already undergone construction across the state.
He lamented that the rain had posed a significant obstacle often washing away the repair materials used on the roads.
He advised the citizens to refrain from any unauthorised methods of disposing of refuse that block the road drainages and hinder the smooth flow of water, causing damage to the roads.
He also urged motorists to adhere to the designated speed limits assigned to each road by law.
