Landlords and property owners from Ibadan's six affected local government areas have urged Governor Seyi Makinde to compensate them before his term ends. The victims made this demand during a meeting with APM gubernatorial candidate Abimbola Adekanmbi. The Ibadan Circular Road project, initiated during Rasidi Ladoja's tenure, began under the previous governor, Abiola Ajimobi.
The ongoing construction has impacted hundreds of houses and properties across Akinyele, Egbeda, Ido, Oluyole, Lagelu, and Ona Ara LGAs. Despite the Oyo State Governor approving N5.8 billion for compensation, victims claim they haven't received any funds. Prince Niyi Fasoye, representing the victims, called for a meeting with Adekanmbi to discuss the situation, emphasizing that all necessary verification has been completed.
Adekanmbi responded, stating that the administration is actively working to fulfill the compensation promises. He assured that verification of the remaining unverified victims will commence promptly, followed by approval and payment.
