The people of Ibagun ward, Okelele in Ilorin East local government area of Kwara state have praised Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq over the ongoing reconstruction of the all- important Alagbado road.
Alagbado road is a major route leading to the Sobi Specialist Hospital, Ilorin which has been designated as isolation centre for the treatment of victims of infectious diseases.

The chairman of IPU, Alhaji Kuranga Omomeji, in a statement said: “We, the entire Ibagun community write to appreciate your, missionary, visionary and dogged transformation of the State and the Ibagun community in the spate of few months you held mantle of leadership as Executive Governor, Kwara state.
“Your gargantuan strides remind this community of that political maestro of the old Borno empire, Idris Kartakarmabi, whose historical achievements was second to none! Sir, you are indeed the Messiah of our time!
“The community is not unmindful of the commitment of our son, Mall Saadudeen Salaudeen, SA(political)’s repeated assurances of your avowed commitment to total transformation of the state. Ibagun community remains loyal and support your government a 100%. We never had it so good in the last 16years.”
