Another politician gets called out for making stuff up. The Ogun State Government slammed Labour Party figure Arabambi Abayomi for claiming it sells public housing like the Ibara GRA. Governor Dapo Abiodun's media aide, Kayode Akinmade, labeled the accusations reckless defamation and blackmail. He stated that Abayomi became hostile after the administration distanced itself from him.
Akinmade explained that the urban renewal program transforms rundown GRAs into modern smart cities. Projects cover areas in Abeokuta, Ijebu-Ode, Ilaro, and Ota. The initiative involves rebuilding old structures, adding new housing, and installing infrastructure like roads and power. He mentioned specific unit counts planned for Ibara and Idi-Aba.
The aide noted several prominent Nigerians praised the redevelopment work. He accused Abayomi of seeking relevance through attacks after failing to gain government favor. Akinmade advised the public to ignore the chieftain, suggesting he focus on his political party instead. The government maintains that GRAs remain its exclusive preserve for revitalization.
