The lawmaker representing Ekiti Central Federal Constituency II in the House of Representatives, Hon. Abiodun Omoleye, has flagged off the construction of three township roads in Aramoko-Ekiti, in a move aimed at improving infrastructure and boosting economic activities in the community.
Speaking during the inauguration of the projects, Omoleye stated that the roads located in the Ijowa, Ijofi, and Ile-Ona areas of the town would be completed within 60 days.
He added that solar-powered streetlights would also be installed along the roads upon completion to enhance security and improve nighttime visibility.
The federal lawmaker explained that the project was part of his commitment to delivering the dividends of democracy to the people and giving back to the communities that elected him.
According to him, the roads would not only enhance the environment’s beauty but also improve movement within the town and stimulate commercial activities.
Omoleye assured residents that quality materials would be used for the construction, noting that asphalt would be laid to ensure durability and long-lasting service.
He also urged residents to support the project by maintaining the roads, particularly through regular clearing of drainage channels and avoiding activities that could damage the infrastructure.
In their separate remarks, the Sajowa of Aramoko-Ekiti, High Chief Oyebade Kolade, and the Balekale of the town, Chief Alimi Akanni-Bello, expressed appreciation to the lawmaker for facilitating the road projects.
They described the initiative as timely and beneficial to the community, pledging that residents would ensure proper use and maintenance of the roads when completed.
The event attracted a large turnout of residents, including women, youths and community leaders, who welcomed the lawmaker with jubilation and offered prayers for continued success in his efforts to positively impact the constituency.
