• Abule Oko Road.
Residents and road users in Abule Oko, Oke-Ayo, Magboro, Ogun State, have decried the worsening condition of the community road, describing it as dangerous, slippery and a threat to lives and livelihoods, particularly during the rainy season.
PUNCH Metro gathered during a visit to the community on Tuesday that the road, which stretches from Abule Oko to Cele Bus Stop and connects areas such as Oke-Ayo, Igaun and Makogi, has deteriorated significantly over the years, making movement difficult for commuters, motorists, traders and residents.
Our correspondents observed that following a recent heavy rainfall, the road became nearly impassable, forcing some residents to remove their footwear before accessing the market.
A commercial motorcyclist, identified simply as Abubakar, told PUNCH Metro that the road was previously manageable after community youths made efforts to patch it but has since deteriorated.
