In a way to compliment the laudable work of the state government of OSUN, the Oluwo of Iwoland is set to embark on the filling of the potholes along the Iwo-Osogbo road in continuation of his developmental strides according to a statement from the palace today.
The road that has been abandoned for years, has crippled the economy activities of Iwoland and other towns along the axis of the road.
According to the statement, the monarch said "The road which serve as the gateway to the OSUN state capital must be put into good shape. It must be in good condition.
We have to understand that self help is the best help. And even community works/engagement precede the advent of government" the statement reads.
He further stressed the fact that "Government can not do everything for the masses. There is need for the community to come around and compliment the activities of the government. Government can't do it alone."
Oba Akanbi however make a clarion call to different pressure group in the community to join hands with him for the success of the project
The statement said "This is to call all the various groups in Iwoland, the Christian Association of Nigeria, Isokan Muslimu of Iwoland, Tawun, The NURTW, RTEAN, Tippers Association, Okada Riders Association, Bricklayers Association, Quarry Association and all other groups to come out and support this project."
He has also fixed a take-off date for the commencement of the project of filling of the portholes along Iwo-Osogbo road which is set to "kick off on Saturday 15th of October, 2016 at exactly 8:00 am."
He further enjoined all sons and daughters of Iwoland to support the project while as well outlining the economic importance of the road "The importance of this road to the economy of IWO and the entire state of OSUN can not be overemphasized.
Let's come together and get this project done. Let's support this project with necessary materials and in person" he concluded.
N.B: If you're willing to assist in whatsoever in making this project to come to reality, you can walk to the palace and meet Kabiesi in person.
