President Muhammadu Buhari has come to Ogun for the inauguration of some projects executed by the governor of the state, Dapo Abiodun.
He was received by Mr. Abiodun and other senior state government officials at 10:40 am in the Mojoda area of Ijebu-Ode, where he cut the ribbon for the inauguration of the 14-kilometer Ijebu-Ode-Mojoda-Epe highway.
Mr. Buhari is also expected to inaugurate other projects, including Gateway City Gate Monument Park and Sagamu Interchange.
Other projects are two developments: the 527-unit low and middle housing scheme at Kobape in the Obafemi-Owode local government area and the 83-unit duplexes at Kings Court Estate, Oke-Mosan in Abeokuta.
Mr. Buhari is also scheduled to hold a stakeholder meeting at the Presidential Lodge in Abeokuta to finalize the visit.

Meanwhile, the ancient city of Abeokuta sports a new look, as the main roads, bridges and other important institutions and public places were beautifully decorated as part of the arrangement to add color to the program.
The Federal Highway Traffic Safety Corps (FRSC) and the state traffic monitoring and control agency had closed some major highways to traffic.
However, alternative routes were created and opened for motorists in the state for the duration of the visit. (NAN)
