About this time last year, Ogun State Ministry of works’ men came with caterpillars and bulldozers to grade this road. This was broadcast live on the television, especially AIT, to draw attention of the public to what Ogun state government was doing at Ota. The workmen dubbed it as "OGD Intervention." However, they failed to provide effective drainage for the road, which is actually the most important thing needed by this road. Now the road is completely unusable and totally abandoned by all vehicles. It is currently in a worse state than that of last year before the repairs.
This portion of road is called the Plaza junction, about 400 metres from Sango-Ota overhead bridge. If you are coming from the Lagos-Abeokuta old toll-gate, this road serves as an alternative road to Abeokuta if you want to avoid passing through the Sango-Ota junction, or you want to go straight to Ijoko or Agbado. This road is now completely impassable to any vehicle at all due to poor drainage.
Sango-Ota is an important part of Ogun state boasting of many companies that generate revenues for the state. This is apart from residents and small business owners that also contribute to the development of the area. Let Ogun state government focus more attention on Sango-Ota area and help to rehabilitate the major roads. This is an appeal to the Otunba Gbenga Daniel (OGD) administration.
