His Excellency, Dr Kayode Fayemi inspecting the Ureje Bridge collapse site on Ado-Ikole Road. On the Governor’s entourage were Commissioners for Works, Mr Sola Adebayo, Environment, Mr Gbenga Agbeyo and the Special Adviser on Roads & Infrastructure, Hon. Sunday Adunmo.
The bridge collapsed due to heavy rainfall that caused an erosion in the area. Ekiti State Government has since begun immediate palliative efforts within hours of the incident to keep the major link road motorable until the rains subside.
The Governor, in a tweet from his personal handle @kfayemi, had assured the residents that reconstruction would commence once the rains are over. The Ado-Ikole road is under federal jurisdiction.
