The Executive Chairman of the Mosan-Okunola Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Mrs Olabisi Adebajo, has called on residents to properly maintain and ensure the durability of the currently reconstructed roads in the area.
She made this disclosure while on an inspection visit to the Powerline-Okunola axis of the area on Tuesday afternoon, adding that those found defacing the roads will be made to face the punishment.
The council boss said, “We have some people dumping refuses where they are not supposed to, those shops will be sealed, and until they do the needful, we won’t reopen the shops.
“Within the community, we had a meeting with the CDAs and they’ve assured us that all those who dump refuse will be made to clear the refuse.”
She said this would be backed up by a community task force within each development area to ensure that no defacement will be permitted on public property.
She called on residents, shop owners, and motorists in the area to support the government in helping ensure that the roads stand the test of time.
In her words, “The government cannot do it alone, we need to support the government, you need to cooperate with the government and whatever we are doing, you need to take ownership of it. Maintain it, don’t think it is government property because it is your duty to take ownership of it.”
