President Bola Tinubu flags off the reconstruction and dualisation of the Ibadan–Ijebu-Ode road and presents the project as part of federal infrastructure efforts in Nigeria’s South-West. The road is a 56.5-kilometre stretch, and the government sets the contract value at about N296 billion. Tinubu speaks at a flag-off ceremony at the Idi Ayunre end of the highway.
The sources agree that Tinubu links the works to broader goals of improving transportation and supporting economic integration and trade across the region. They also state that he accompanies the Ibadan–Ijebu-Ode project with an additional approval: the dualisation of the Abeokuta–Ibadan road. While one outlet frames the road project in relation to the administration’s longer-term political timeline, both describe the initiative primarily in terms of addressing infrastructure deficits in the South-West.
There are no conflicting figures in the reports provided, and both outlets present the announcements as part of the Federal Government’s wider transport network upgrading.
