It bears repeating that where roads go,
development follows. And so, in our quest to
continue in the work of engineering a modern
Oyo State, we will continue executing road
projects.
Some people have come out to say we
should focus on one section of the state and
ensure it is developed. But this is not the
path to sustainable development. As I have
said in the past, we do not want to recreate
the problem with Nigeria in Oyo State.
Today, we are talking about restructuring as the
way forward for Nigeria because people in one
section of the country believe that they are the
ones creating all the wealth that people from the
other sections are benetting from.
So here in Oyo State, we have chosen that we
will develop all the zones in the state and the
best way to do this is by creating an effective
road network.
In this way, we are leveraging our comparative
advantage in agriculture.
