IROKO HAS DONE WELL IN AKURE.. FACTS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DR OLUSEGUN MIMIKO IN AKURE: 1) The amount of work Iroko did on the long stretch Adesida/Oyemekun road (from Fiwasaiye to FUTA junction road block alone will cover nothing less than fifty of those surface dressed roads you ascribed to Dr Agagu.. Besides being a dual carriage way that span over 9 kilometers,grade A asphalt overlay were effected all through. The road was completely transformed by Mimiko with quality asphalt from beginning to the end. What about the following: modern functioning street lights powered by diesel generator for the past four years non stop,over 40 parks including the phenomenal democracy park, 16 modern bus stops,rechannelization of the waterways,the two big roundabouts and the decorations,the modern roads signs,the bridges,massive drainages and retention walls. Are you telling me that if the amount of money spent on this road is spent on other Akure roads,you wont even get 21 roads. Do you even realize that over 80 buildings were demolished to give way for the Democracy Park with compensation paid to all the owners without complaints from any angle? Lets alway put on our thinking caps please. The fact that Mimiko wont commission roads doesnt defeat the fact that he has done something appreciable. 2) Arakale road: this is a 5 kilometer road dualized with quality asphalt overlay. Over 200 buildings including banks were demolished and compensation paid to every owner without complaints from any source.

Two massive roundabouts at both ends of the road. The total reconstruction and transformation of the NEPA market into a modern shopping mall to change the look of the road.
