Ado-Ilawe road records another accident, as youths protest delay in fixing

By Ademola Adeleke

The Ado-Ilawe road has recorded another accident, barely three weeks after a hearse carrying a corpse entered the ditch created by an implosion a few months ago.

Though, no life was lost to the incident as it was a lone accident, the commercial car involved was severely damaged after tumbling twice.

An Eye witness said that the five-passenger car which was occupied by both humans and luggage, encountered difficulty in ascending the make shift road from Ilawe end, which led to the accident.

Road users and passers by urged the state government to quickly fix the road to avert further road crashes and that the graded alternative currently in use would become impassable during the raining season.

The driver of the vehicle, who was visibly angry, lamented on how he would raise money to fix the car .

Recall that the Alawe, Oba Adebanji Ajibade Alabi, had during the yuletide, appealed to governor Biodun Oyebanji to fix the road by making safe and passable for travellers.

In the meantime, youths in the community have protested the delay in fixing the failed portion, calling on the state government to address the problem.
