Governor Adeleke Inspects Sabotaged Section of LAMECO Bridge Area, Condemns Anti-Development Politics
OSOGBO- 24/07/2026
Governor Ademola Adeleke, this evening inspected the sabotaged section of LAMECO bridge area at Osogbo and condemned the incident and similar reported case on Lagere flyover, berating politicians sponsoring vandalisation of public infrastructures.
The governor who took briefing from engineers from the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure expressed sadness that some politicians can sabotage a public infrastructure in their quest to blackmail the government, noting that “This is no longer politics.
“Election is about the people voting for the leaders of their choice. Our job as politicians is to market our plans and records. Why would any genuine politician arrange to destroy a beautiful edifice like the Lameco bridge because of an election? That conduct is a hate crime against the people of Osun state.
“It is so immoral that Osun APC is not even ashamed of its masterminding such sabotage. I call on politicians to play the politics of development. These infrastructures were built with public funds. Why should we endanger the lives of our people and waste public resources simply because of elections?”, the governor wondered.
Governor Adeleke who commended the engineers from the Ministry of Works for their prompt action further directed immediate security surveillance on all major public infrastructures in the state.
“I hereby direct immediate surveillance and monitoring of key infrastructures. We must secure public assets in the best interest of the state and her residents”, the governor was quoted as saying.
