    What many once thought was impossible has now become a symbol of transformation, resilience, and visionary leadership.

    The expansion of the Mushin-Isolo Road, long considered a dream by residents and business owners, has become a reality. Thanks to the determined efforts of Hon. Ganiyu Abiodun Johnson (GAJ), the former House of Representatives member representing Oshodi-Isolo Federal Constituency II.

    This project, which had lingered for decades due to different bottlenecks, has now given birth to renewed hope for commuters, traders, transporters, and small business owners who rely on that corridor for their daily livelihood.

    Hon. GAJ, the architect of modern connectivity, envisioned a constituency where road infrastructure fuels economic development.

    His foresight, grounded in practical action, led to the execution of this major road expansion. A development many describe as one of the most impactful projects in the constituency’s recent history.

    The Mushin-Isolo Road, previously known for gridlocks, poor drainage, and damaged surfaces, has now become a smooth-flowing route that connects businesses to new customers, markets, and partners. Traffic time has been drastically reduced, logistics operations have improved, and the aesthetics of the area have also been enhanced, drawing new investors into the corridor.

    According to a local trader who preferred to remain anonymous, “Out of the many projects by Hon. Ganiyu Abiodun Johnson, the Mushin-Isolo Road expansion is one of the best. It has breathed new life into our daily activities. Customers who once avoided this route now flock to our shops without hesitation.”

    From retail stores and markets to logistics companies and service providers, the ripple effect of road expansion is evident. Businesses that once struggled due to accessibility issues now thrive. Commercial activity has surged, property values are rising, and the general outlook of the area is brighter.

    GAJ is not just a politician; he is a man of purpose and action. His commitment to infrastructural development has set a high standard for service delivery. Beyond the Mushin-Isolo Road, his tenure was marked by numerous people-centered projects aimed at improving the quality of life for his constituents.

    The expansion of this road is more than just a project; it is a statement of what is possible when visionary leadership meets community needs.

    As Mushin-Isolo Road continues to attract business traffic and socio-economic growth, residents and stakeholders now believe more than ever in the power of effective representation. Hon. Ganiyu Abiodun Johnson has shown that with the right leadership, even the most complex challenges can be turned into success stories.

    Indeed, the Mushin-Isolo corridor is now a thriving hub. A small Singapore in the making, where dreams are nurtured on solid ground and businesses grow through better roads.
