Here's what the Lagos-Benin-Ore road looks like currently. This road used to be a death trap. So good that this government made it a priority...but no need for too much praise...lol...This is what they are supposed to do in the first place. See what Ibadan-Ilorin road looks like now after the cut...

Thank you GEJ for doing what you were voted in to do.

Yet they say GEJ isnt working. GEJ till 2019.
this is IBADAN-OYO road...this does not go all the way to ILORIN...it ends in OYO.

Thank God ooooo.
Village man, why you go put street lights for highway?
Nice one.Things are getting better
Nice one.Things are getting better
For decades no head of state military or civilian was able to fix this road. Well done Jonathan. If nobody praise you praise yourself.
Good luck is working
Are u kidding me? Thank God for govt o! If only all roads in Nigeria are like,they would b lesser rd accident and faster trip to any part of the country..
Check out d roads in 10 years time...we lack maintenance culture! Am sure d rd would've been gone by then...

Okpoh.....street light 4 high way sumtin dey do u walai"
Well, for me it's a good one. Would never forget my experience on Benin-Ore road as a youth Corp member in 2009. I spent more than 9 hours trapped in traffic on the road while travelling from Anambra to write Nigerian Breweries aptitude test. Kudos to FG for this!
Wooooooooooow. . Kudos to Gej.. linda evn enugu onitsha express way is nw good.. no more traffic in osha oo..
Benin-Ore not Lagos-benin-ore and also Ibadan-oyo not Ibadan-Ilorin pls dont mislead people,look like paid advert.
Linda and his bunch of hypocrites...Fashola with his fake achievements still you bloggers will still praise him...
ßut yet again, if they didn't do it, we won't kill them. It takes intergrity to do the right thing. Weldone GEJ administration. Please sir work on the high way light. Ɠ♡D bless any govenment that does the right thing. You aint doing for man, ßut Ɠ♡D.

Thanks 2 Julius Berger
It could still be a death trap cos our driver would choose to reach d last value on their speedometer. We need to change our driving attitude
Wow! Great!
Street lights on the highway? how dumb are you tho? SMH
Rome was not built in day......It's a gradual process. Chill!

We will need a clip, not just a pic, to know the true state of the road.
This people should stop showing us the nice place they have been able to fix bcos from Lagos to Ore is still in bad shape
Who ever post this article is a liar from hell...
Linda are you kidding me??? Which ibadan ilorin road are you talking about? Maybe ibadan oyo road....cos oyo to ilorin is still a narrow road dats a death trap in ur words....
Dis ibadan - ilorin is a joke or yoke like a calabar man, it is only ibadan to oyo dat is ok but oyo to ogbomoso is still a death trap and work has stopped dere since. Pls help us tell dem to mobilize d contractor or ordered dem if dem don collect money to finish it. Ogbomoso to ilorin has been completed too dnt forget d contract was awarded under obasanjo regime ooo
Dey dere dey wait for stret light...appreciate what you have...
Who ever post this article is a liar from hell..
street lights on highways? you gotta be kidding!!
Plenty kilometres still yet to be covered o. Infact one-third not yet completed on lagos - ibadan road.
D road is not even completed and ur talking about street lights, wake up dis is naija. I just pray dat d road will be completed b4 I clock 70yrs. Am 30 now, d countdown begins!
Ds just d good side
Abegi appreciate it!GEJ is working Plus al u dis local nigerians dt v nev stepped foot in d airport behaving like dey knw ao jand luks like! Mr/miss anonymous nt all major roads v street light okay!olodo! I'm a yoruba bt I love GEJ, welldone sir
Wow, I travelled this road so many times in the 90s and up until 2008, and the accidents on that road were so frequent and frightening. I pray GEJ and subsequent governments will maintain this road and others. Building is good, maintenance is also key. Welldone President GEJ
linda,try and be posting honest comments.
WE DONE GET LIGHT FINISH FOR OUR HOMES..
I can see why ur family is so poor, because u don't appreciate good things! Wake up
Hmm, campaign things, 2015 runs
I am sick and tired of your hypocrisy. You were the same person that has been complaining about how this road has been a death trap. This administration did something about it after so many years and you water down the achievement with some bullshit about its what they are suppose to do anyway. Accept it this man has done more than all those mother fuckers that have ruled this country.
Street light ni kan ni, u no thk God say dem provide dis one. Cool though #thumbsup
Then they put streetlight for highways....u no get headlamps.....when they never give you light for house they Wan give you light for highway
........besides as proof..there are no street light on america's highways..olofo
it will be fixed later. I guess it was captured in the 2015 budget as it is a different contract and will involve breaking the road to fix the light ;].
GOD BLESS GEJ..2015 ALL D WAY
Linda I like your last word..no need praise thats what they suppose do...we prasie the at times as if the do wonders forgetting that's why we vote them
Yes! All hater should locate the nearest transformer and give it a hug. This is just the beginning of reaping the dividends of democracy. Very soon electricity fluctuation will be a thing of the past. Support GEJ transformation agenda! Long live Niger! Long live GEJ! Best presidor ever!
Next, reliable road safety to enforce speed limits and sobriety? This will drastically reduce fatal accidents.
Idiot u no even thank Baba God say u see dis kind Road for Dis niga
That's a very insightful comment. They need to flood the roads with street lights and also make it neat, I never understand why they never do things to the end. Neaten it and plant flowers, the appearance is also part of the job.
Good Job...now street light and security!!
@anonymous9:02, you called it street light and you want to have it on the highway? Be happy with what you have
big lie.... how sensible is it to have 2 lines for interstate road. is this same from rccg camp to magoro... who u fooling
Linda,how much did they pay you to post this,that is not Lagos-Benin Road ,Lagos road is still bad,who is deceiving who
So when Is the street lights coming? Or contractor don chop d money ni? Stl a death trap at night if no streetlights pls Nd also robbers den
Do not, I repeat do not be fooled by this picture. The stretch from Lagos to Ore, The Ogun State stretch, where our open letter writing ex-present hails from, is still a death trap. Motorist to this day have to drive on the on-coming traffic part of the road. It is HELL travelling through that road. I have been on the road recently and Linda till you get the full details and pictures do not join our scheming politicians in fooling Nigerians. In my opinion it is better there is no road there than the torture that I have to go through whenever I ply that route.
Street lights are necessary on parts of the highway that are close to residential areas, otherwise it is not necessary. You cannot put street lights on a no-man's land in the middle of nowhere. If that pic is real, then that's a relief. I would have loved more lanes (3 or 4 lanes) in both direction.
Highly commendable indeed - given that these "death trap" roads have been there through several military regimes and civilian administrations before the president with GOODLUCK came along. Kudos to GEJ.
D most important thing is dat they ve started doing some thing....glory be 2 God
Take a chill pill.... it's a start.
Mchewww!empty barrel make noise.these present administration is full of noise without any reasonable achievement.fools
Good question! Ask anodr one....
nd some people will be talking rubish. d road dat obj could not repay in all d 8 years he spent in d office.linda u need to com see wat onitsha upper iweka looks lik too. Gej all the way! u will be there if the north like make them finish themselves with boko datz der business. ndi ara
GEJ is working. Lets all support him in 2015 and am sure Nigeria will be better.
GEJ is working. Lets all support him in 2015 and am sure Nigeria will be better.
Great work. The last time I passed that Ore road, they were really carrying out fantastic work. Thank God it's completed now.
Kudos to GEJ joor. Now some bad Belle people will say he's not working.
Mr President ride on. We that are with you are so much more than those against you.
Haba a step at a time street lights you shld be happy for the road first
Have u seen d death traps btw oyo to Ogbomoso
The first picture is only showing d good part at Edo axis, the road is still very bad btw Ijebu-ode and Ore. Made in Nig cars can't survive it.
When will our roads begin to ave street lights?
Okikiola
Thank God....this road has been fixed. Though would have expected that they would have made it a major highway road with at least 4 lanes on both sides like in developed countries. Well......
This is death trap. ..no light and no finishing touch?. ...HUH
Street lights will be a separate money making project
this bullshit got no street lights on a high way like this unfinished project political scam nigerians need to wise up we have all been blind folded by this call leaders
Wot re U waiting 4 Fix them on d Road mtcwwwww
Nigeria go better
Lol.. same thing I thought.
Na wah for you Linda, this is part of the road, the road is like this just after Ore to Benin, but from lagos to Ore which is still about 180KMs is still a death trap, please publicize accurate news, please. And I will not praise a government for doing the very thing they were elected to do, it is not a favor, it is a right. Finally we need to ask the government how the intend implementing a sustainable framework for road maintenance. We don't want a situation where the road dilapidates due to lack of maintenance. Cheers
Are the yellow lines BRT lanes....don't yab me to much, just asking? 'Dipupo
Interstate highways generally tend not to have lights. Anywhere in the world.
Haa! Linda u don pass there lately? Lagos to Ore is still very terrible o. Ore to benin is very smooth tho. Intact all the way to warri but Lagos ore is still a death trap
some ppl shld know d way dey talk,cant we be appreciative atimes,we shld commend dem for d ones dey have done so dey can do more.at least i've travelled on dat road twice dis year d accident have drastically reduced
U r a HEAVY FOOL. Blind APC he-goat like u. Its not ur fault cos truly no APC govt can give u dis. Try movin ur lazy ass off mushin & travel around to see tins happenin. D roads r beta dan wen ur fada plied dem, & it'll keep getting beta, u can ask ur Propagander-in-Chief Uncle Lai Mohammed. Spanish Idiot.
Wu told u it was Gej dat did d road?
Will they be maintained? Why can't we have more highways with more than 2 lanes? Oh well
The government is working oh!
good to know
good road
BORN TO SHINE!!!
Credit to time but time fact is also needed
Dont know why many of us can never appreciate anything good.I believe that all these people here talking about street lights and flowers never saw this road when it was bad or for how long it has been bad and how many thousands of Nigerian shave dies on this road.OBJ and others could not do it..GEJ did it now and u guys are talking about street lights.
Highways don't have street lights
Ungreatful clowns like you should be put down. You people have been screaming and complaining of bad govt. You have asked GEJ to show u what he has done. He has, yet your attitude remains the same NEGATIVE. You think that will gt this country anywhere?
THANKS AND GODBLESS YOU FOR THIS. If put in power, I wonder how many of these critics will actually do the right thing. If you people like don't vote for him next year, it is to the detriment of this country, not him. Atleast we see he is active.
Did he spoil it in the first place? Abi it's been like tht for God can remember how long. If you want, he can leave the one closest to you undone so you and your people can 'die' up
My first time to comment here on LIB. Ibadan-Ilorin road was approved and constructed by OBJ. I was surprised last 2 week I traveled to Ilorin and I saw sure-p board. Any TV or Radio station can request for more inform from OBJ about Ibadan-Ilorin road. I am not a politician but GEJ must not take other people's glory if he need my vote in 2015. Thanks.
He's not working hard enough!
To be honest here.....sometimes I didn't have anything against our leaders but I have it with we youth that suppose to see with our open eyes and embrace one and other no matter what part of the country we are from, religion and tribe. we criticized ourselves than our leaders does. Can we just think positive for 2 minutes and stop selling any candidate for 2015? We have the power to make this country great or bad cause we are 50m population.
I feel so sad about this! How can the largest economy in africa be so happy about two short two-lane highways?? The last time I saw people this happy is here where a major commuter freeway was extended to 7 lanes each side plus 2-lane eash side toll/hov lane. This was from crowded but fully safe and functional 3 lanes each side. The celebration was for the change in commute time in half not that they wont die on way home on that road. Shame!!
Its a continuous process and its coming your way.
We must all embrace our transformation agenda. Can't you see that light overcomes darkness. The rouges in our government can't stand the present transformation. This transformation started from the PDP. Now its reformed, born again and all things has become new.
GEJ we stand!
Ewu
Hon. Mike, obulu obulu obhio.
Are you blind?? Perhaps you have reading issues...yan yan yan yan yan...read again
LINDA GET YOUR FACTS RIGHT!
Only the Ibadan to Oyo section of the Ibadan to Ilorin road is dualised and Okay. The longer Oyo to Ilorin section is still a death trap.
Same goes for Lagos-Benin Road. Only Ore to Benin depicts your pix. The Fore section is not as good.
BTW IB to Oyo road pre-existed GEJ govt.
- A regular user of these routes
Lagos to Ore hasn't been don, it just after ore to Benin that has been don, they should stop showing us pics of uncompleted projects Jor make dem finish am first.
Mind u others b4 him did nothing abt d roads. They just sat there 4 years & embezzled d funds. For once guy leave dis ur APC bitter attitude & appreciate gud tins. All we want is gud governance not party governance. Y is d APC made up of saddists?
yet dey wouldnt fix the road leading to sambisa forest...how hard can dat be?lolz.there are no development better than the security of lives&property. i wait 4 dat genius dat wd tell me good road helps&den drop his direct home address to shekau and lets see if the good road will stop him...GEJ; yeye foul...

I drove this road a week ago. It is only some portions(ore to benin) that has been fixed. Sagamu to ore is still very bad.
well, not every part of that road, but some part. I travelled home by road to the east, early may.
the lane for those coming back from the east, needs urgent attention though.
Kudos to the government so far
Pls tell me d fake achievements by fashola because for all I knw, he's still 100% better Dan GEJ.
@anon 11:52. Are u saying PDP is d best?? Caus am confused.
This is beautiful
The second picture is just ibadan to Oyo. Oyo to Ogbomoso is death trap.
These pics are false. ..not all parts of the road are complete...major parts are still in very bad conditions. .don't believe this propaganda.
GEJ is my best president ever. Forget those bokos ndi ara. All the states are having new look
How many years warranty do we have on these roads before it gets to where it was before?
GEJ i hail u, Anambra looks beta than this *IAMHERE2SPY*
It was Obasanjo that awarded and did the Ibadan Oyo road and Ogbomosho Ilorin road not GEJ.
Linda please give correct information.
Oyo Ogbomosho is terribly bad, took the road on my way to Ilorin last 2 weeks
Linda this is a paid adverts and this may affect your fans. the picture was Ibadan to Oyo and Ore to Benin. you may not post if you like. other blog will post it.
Errrm people there's no need for insults na, there r supposed to be street lights or lemme called them road lamps, major highs or not go check major highways in the more developed world like M25s dem
Kudos to GEJ....as we don't need to start criticizing but encourage our leaders at least to start from somewhere.....
GEJ a'int working says my fellow Northern Religious bigot brothers.
He that sees good thing and fight it, good shall never come to his house. #karma.
All the black belle APC members will Neva see anything good in others success cos the are bent on painting everything black Jst as there hearts are black with hate an islamization of Nigeria....
madam LINDA hv u been paid to publicise dis ahead of 2015. no wahala, if u don collect d cash no 4get us o.
Contract for Ilorin- Ibadan was awarded in 2006 not GEJ project
Na lie, all na scam, was on ibadan-ilorin road 3days ago. It is still d same way. This picture is ilorin to ogbomoso,dats d only gd portion n its been since '08 or so
So finally dey decided to do it. Thnk God for dere lifes
LINDA IKEJI Patrick obaghiagbon will atleast quit the "state of agony"
Linda....Ibadan/Ilorin road is not complete het. Remains the Oyo/Ogbomosho section to make it complete and that has been abandoned for a while now. than and only when that section is complete can we give the FG the Job well done they deserve....even though this should have been completed durin OBYs' era

Don't you think there should be street light on this road?
Balogun,it was Fashiola that did it,not GEJ.mtchewwwww
Is this how the road looks from Lagos to Benin or is this just a section of the road?
Is this how the road looks from Lagos to Benin or is this just a section of the road?
God will multiply ur blessings.good and honest people like you shldn't be anonymous.Linda is so pissing me off with her biased reporting! OBJ awarded Lagos Ibadan EW repairs to Bicourtey on a padi padi level,yrs down d line,no visible sign of improvement,this Gvt did the noble thing by revoking the contract and reawarding same to two reputable firms who are seriously working nw,Linda and her Aggrieved Political Criminals APC didn't find it worthy of note.yeye dey smell.
What portion of Ibadan - Ilorin Road, bearing in mind that it is only Ogbomoso - Ilorin and Ibadan - Oyo Road that are now completed and motorable in addition to the fact that they are both shorter than Oyo Ogbomosho Road which is very difficult to ply.It is not commendable for anyone to disseminate information with a view to deceiving people, more so Jonathan was not the one who even commenced the project and not until when the greater part of the road - Oyo/Ogbomosho has been completed, no kudos to anyone including Obasanjo.
Appreciate him so that he can do more. Stupid ingteats. God go punish all you haters of Goodluck.
Haba or you mean Edo part of the Lagos-Benin cos i travel that route on friday and Ore was still bad. Dont understand why they are pasting pic of a particular location.
Oga u nor dey travel,quiet.
Miss balogun. Oya tell us who do am o. Maybe na u award d contract
You sure say na the road be dis? Nor photoshop anything here o!
EVERY YEAR, IT IS ANNOUNCED THAT THE LAGOS BENIN ROAD HAS BEEN FIXED BUT WHENEVER I GET TO TRAVEL THROUGH THE ROAD, THE ROAD STILL REMAINS A DEATHTRAP WHERE ONE SPENDS SEVERAL UNCOMFORTABLE HOURS...
ONLY A LITTLE PORTION OF THE ROAD HAS PRESENTLY BEEN FIXED YET POLITICIANS WILL SPREAD MISLEADING PICTURES IN THEIR BID TO DECEIVE THE GULLIBLE MASSES...
IT IS EVEN MORE DISHEARTENING THAT POPULAR BLOGS WILL ALSO HELP THESE POLITICIANS SPREAD THEIR FALSEHOOD WITHOUT CONFIRMING THE INFORMATION FIRST... LINDA IKEJI, I AM DISSAPPOINTED IN YOU.. A FRIEND OF MINE TRAVELLED FROM WARRI TO LAGOS SOME WEEKS AGO AAND COMPLAINED BITTERLY ABOUT THE STATE OF THAT ROAD..
IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT WHILE OUR POLITICIANS HAVE DECEIVED US FOR DECADES, NIGERIANS HAVE CONTINUED TO BE GULLIBLE AND HAVE STUBBORNLY REFUSED TO BE SMART..
Plenty talk........ I though hate it when people come and say rubbish. This is so benin to ore at least I travelled at least once or twice to et fro lagos to benin. The other parts of the road from ore down to lagos is a serious death trap.
Before you all start making noise of praising. Where are the street lights? This is even more dangerous cos cars will be speeding at night with their full headlights on and more cause for accidents!!!!
