News Update
Thousands of residents of Ibadan, in Oyo State, are currently protesting over alleged plans by the state government to acquire more lands for Ibadan circular road corridor.
The residents have blocked some major roads in the ancient city.
Media reports that the idea of Ibadan circular road was conceived when the current Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rasidi Adewolu Ladoja was the governor of the state.
It was learnt that Ladoja marked 150 metres for the construction of the road, however, the current governor, Seyi Makinde is planning to extend the number of metres for the circular road corridor, which will affect more houses and community lands.
Report indicates that the protesting residents, who are from Ido, Lagelu, Ona Ara, Akinyele, Oluyole and Egbeda, want the state government to maintain the 150 metres already marked by Ladoja.
The group of protesters, currently on Iwo Road, have blocked access in and out of the area, which is one of the major roads in Ibadan.
The blockage of the road has caused serious traffic jam in that area.
