The lawmaker representing Osun Central Senatorial District, Olubiyi Fadeyi, had announced that he secured presidential approval for the construction of a five-kilometre access road spanning key parts of his constituency.
A statement issued by his Special Adviser on Digital Media and Publicity, Adekanola Desmond, said the development marks a significant infrastructure intervention expected to boost healthcare access and rural connectivity across the district.
The lawmaker, who is the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment, explained that a major component of the project is a one-kilometre access road leading up to the Federal University of Health Sciences Teaching Hospital, Ila-Orangun.
The senator explained that the remaining four kilometres will link other districts within Osun Central, opening up rural corridors that are vital to farmers, traders and daily commuters.
He said, “This project will transform mobility and healthcare delivery in our region.
“We will conduct the official flag-off ceremony later this March.”
The lawmaker further revealed that preliminary site clearing has commenced at the hospital axis, signalling the imminent take-off of full-scale construction works.
The road project comes amid growing calls for improved infrastructure in Osun Central, particularly around critical public institutions.
