“I have discovered a lot from my visits to the twenty local governments in the state and I can assure you that there’s nothing called development in Ogun state.

“Abeokuta is not the only town in Ogun state. Ogun state is massive. I went from Ado-odo Ota to Ipokia down to Imeko-afon I was very disappointed with all I saw over there.

“Likewise, I was at the eastern part of the state Ijebu north, Ijebu east, Remo, Sagamu, Odogbolu, Ogun Waterside but there’s nothing to write about all those areas in terms of development.

“I don’t know what is wrong with the state government, even in Abeokuta, the only place that is partly developed is the commercial center, where tourists can pass through to Olumo rock, and to me that is not the development Ogun state needs.
