Residents hail proposed Sango-Ijoko LCDA in Ogun

By Daud Olatunji

ABEOKUTA—Residents of Sango and Ijoko yesterday held a peaceful procession to commend Ogun State governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun over the proposed Sango-Ijoko Local Government Council Development Area (LCDA) to be created soon.

The procession, which comprised market women, youths, traditional rulers and religious groups, said the LCDA when legislated into existence, would set them free from an alleged “long-standing political enslavement” by the Ota- Awori-Yewa people.

They, however, said the creation of Sango-Ijoko LCDA by the Governor could only be made complete if the prolong boundary injustice against them by their neighbours , is resolved to redeem them from the shackles of domination.
