Special Adviser on Public Works, Babatunde Adesina, an engineer; made this known while featuring on a radio programme in Abeokuta.
He said government had invited local government chairmen, traditional rulers, religious leaders and other stakeholders in the 20 local governments, to submit three roads for building.
The governor’s aide said the current administration was determined to provide good road infrastructure for the comfort of the people, noting that palliatives were being applied to roads that needed attention.
