Kwara State Governor and Chairman of Nigeria Governors’Forum (NGF), Alhaji AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, yesterday,said his administration had fulfilled social contract with Kwarans  through the deployment of state resources towards the infrastructure and socio- economic development of the state.

AbdulRazaq stated this in Ilorin during the official commissioning of 4.779 Km Yebumot-Adeta-Oloje road in Ilorin west local government council area of the state.

The two roads were renamed  after two giants from Ilorin in honour of their contributions to growth and the prestige of the capital city.

Yebumot Adeta was named after retired Major-General Mohammed Abdullahi Adangba, while Adeta to Oloje Road was rechristened Sheikh Yahya Murtadha Agodi, a late prominent Muslim scholar

The governor also used the event to officially commission multi-billion Flower Garden relaxation center, Ilorin, for the benefit of the residents.

“One of the social contracts we have with the people is to deploy resources to improve the condition of living through provision of infrastructure.

“The launching this morning of the 4.779 Km  Yebumot-Adeta-Oloje road satisfies this key objective.

“Time will be reduced within the axis, volume of trade will rise, the value properties will appreciate, and quality of life will be enhanced, among other benefits we can think of. I thank the people of this community for their patience while the job lasted.

“We acknowledge the difficulties that came with the delays associated with sudden inflationary trends and the renegotiation of the terms of contract, among other challenges. All of that is over now.

“I urge community folks to take responsibility for public facilities. The Ministry of Works and Transport will continue to enlighten the people about road management and a need for everyone to own and protect public infrastructures in their domains.”
