Owena–Idanre Road in Ondo State Left Abandoned Despite ₦371 Million Government Payment, Raising Fresh Concerns Over Corruption and Project Accountability

A field report by Tracka and the BudgIT Foundation has revealed that the Owena–Alade–Idanre Road in Ondo State remains abandoned and nearly impassable despite over ₦371 million released for its construction and rehabilitation in 2024. Physical inspections found no evidence of active work or contractor presence, contradicting official payment records. The poor condition of the road has worsened transportation challenges, hurt local economic activities, and heightened security risks for residents. Civil society groups are now demanding transparency from the Federal Ministry of Works and calling on anti-graft agencies to investigate the contractor and possible diversion or mismanagement of public funds.
