Ondo state Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN, has diagnosed the members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), as suffering from amnesia.
As stated in a press release by his Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, the governor responded to members of the opposition party who claim the flyovers constructed by the governor, are for decoration.
The governor stated the importance of the flyovers as “careful interventions to forestall unnecessary road mishaps,” which the opposition seems to have forgotten.

The statement partly reads, “For several years, the intersection at Ore was a nightmare, not only to the people of Ondo State but other road users plying the Lagos/Benin Expressway. Sadly, there were frequent carnages at that spot in Ore. Lives were lost. Precious times were wasted due to gridlocks.
“To address the nasty situation, Governor Akeredolu moved and constructed a flyover, the very first in Ondo State, to save lives and promote economic activities in Ore, which is the economic hub of the state.
“It is, however, shameful that the PDP, out of self inflicted selective amnesia, has suddenly forgotten this huge intervention and decided to demean the great effort that has continued to save lives in the state. Politics has boundaries. It should not cross the line when it comes to any efforts geared towards saving the lives of our people. Any act contrary to this is, at least, insensitive. Every responsible opposition knows that saving the lives of the people is a collective gain for the state.”
The governor reinstated the efforts of his administration geared towards, job creation, sustained economic development, industrialization, and stability, encouraging the opposition to check their facts before issuing statements.
