A legal practitioner, Barrister Alex Owoeye has hailed the inclusion of the construction of Ilafin-Odogbe Road in the draft 2013 budget presented to the Kogi State House of Assembly by Governor Idris Wada.

Barr. Alex while  describing the present situation of the road as ugly and unmotorable commended all the political gladiators in Yagba East Local Government for ensuring that the all important Makutu-Ilafin-Odogbe Road  in Aredu land was surveyed and marked out for construction in the year 2013 by the Kogi State Government.

He also applauded the inclusion of  Iye-Ilotin road which is also part of Aredu land.

  • Makutu-Ilafin-Odogbe Road (Page 59 of 2013 Kogi State budget)
  • Isanlu-Ilotin-Iye Roads (Page 62 of 2013 Kogi State budget)

The legal expert specifically salutes Bashorun Jide Omokore, Barrister Henry Ojuola, Comrade Adebola Gadaffi for their efforts at ensuring that the road gets deserved attention.

Barr Owoeye described the Ilafin-Odogbe and Iye-Ilotin roads as economic roads as it serves as feeder road to areas with large deposits of mineral resources like Tantalite, Gold, and Talc.

The road, according to Alex Owoeye, when completed will aid transportation of huge agricultural produce that will aid food security in the State.

He noted that the road, if well constructed, will serve as another economically beneficial inter-state route as it is a border town between Kogi and Kwara and can also create a faster route to the FCT, Abuja.
