Concerns on the Quality of Construction on Otta- Idiroko International Highway in Ogun State.
Honorable Minister, I want bring to your attention the valid concerns that have been raised about the quality of construction on the ongoing Otta—Idiroko international highway.
Residents have complained through various channels, including organized press briefings, to call your attention to the troubling standard of work currently ongoing in the area. The Ogun State Comptroller of Works, who should ordinarily act in your stead given the demanding nature of your national assignment, has reportedly remained unresponsive to calls and messages.
As you are aware sir, this road is a major route within the West African corridor and serves as a very busy entry point. It is where many foreigners get their first glimpse of what Nigeria’s road infrastructure revamp under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu @officialABAT looks like.
The general public assessment of the construction from residents and road users has been largely negative. Drainages appear weak, with some stretch already collapsing just weeks after completion. There are also growing concerns and doubts about the structural integrity of the flyovers. As well as the very slow pace of work.
A pivotal international highway such as the Otta—Idiroko expressway requires constant attention to even the smallest details, and an absolute guarantee of the highest standards.
I respectfully urge you to take time out of your busy schedule to personally visit this project, as it is of utmost importance to Nigeria’s trade routes, and ensure that the highest quality is restored.
If the contractor proves unwilling to meet expectations, kindly consider terminating the contract and awarding it to a more competent and serious contractor.
Thank you for your continued efforts. It is my hope that swift action will be taken to address these concerns and avert any potential disasters that may arise from poor construction.
Man of Letters.
Ogun State.
