Ondo State Acting Governor, Hon Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, today, averted what could have led to crisis following a heavy duty trailer that developed mechanical fault and blocked the ever-busy Ondo-Ore Highway in Odigbo Local Government area of the State.
The Acting Governor was returning from Mahintedo, in Ilaje Local Government, where he attended the funeral service of late Chief Mrs Cecilia Oluwafemi Orowole.
The situation which led to a gridlock, left the travellers who have spent more than two hours at the spot frustrated.
They lamented the ugly situation, moreso, as the driver of the truck was no where to be found, leaving them with no hope of continuing their journey.
Arriving the spot where the truck had broken down, Hon Lucky Aiyedatiwa appealed to the angry-looking travellers, as he immediately put a call across to officers of the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC to tow the trailer that had obstructed vehicular movement on the highway.
One of the commuters who lamented, that they have spent more than two hours in the traffic jam, thanked the Acting Governor for showing concerns on their plight and for ordering the evacuation of the truck.
