The Oyo State governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Sarafadeen Abiodun Alli, has expressed confidence that the roads leading to Ilaji Hotels and Sports Resort will receive Federal Government attention.
Alli stated this while speaking with members of the JDS/PBAT Support Group on efforts to unite various support groups in Oyo State in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid.
The APC governorship candidate said the Federal Government would construct and rehabilitate the roads leading to the world-class Ilaji Hotels and Sports Resort, expressing optimism that the intervention could be carried out before the end of the Tinubu administration.
“All roads leading to Ilaji will receive Federal Government attention. Before the end of this administration, we expect the Federal Government to construct and fix the roads leading to Ilaji,” Alli said.
He added that once the APC emerges victorious in the 2027 governorship election in Oyo State, the construction and rehabilitation of roads leading to Ilaji would be among the projects that would receive priority attention.
“Once we emerge victorious in 2027, this will be one of the first projects we will give attention to because we cannot continue to neglect an investment of this magnitude,” he added.
Alli also commended Chief Jubril Dotun Sanusi for his contributions to the socio-economic and political development of Oyo State and Nigeria, particularly his investment in Ilaji and his continued support for President Tinubu’s political project.
The governorship hopeful specifically acknowledged what he described as the huge moral and financial support Sanusi has given to President Tinubu’s project since 2023.
He questioned the neglect of the roads leading to an investment of such magnitude, noting that Ilaji Hotels and Sports Resort had the potential to contribute significantly to the state’s economy, tourism development and employment generation.
Alli said improved road infrastructure around the resort would enhance accessibility, attract more visitors and investors, and create opportunities for businesses operating within its surrounding communities.
He further called on the people of Oyo State to support President Tinubu’s re-election, citing what he described as the administration’s achievements since assuming office.
Alli urged members of the JDS/PBAT Support Group and other political support groups to work together towards mobilising support for the President ahead of the 2027 general elections.
