The advisory was contained in a statement by the TRACE spokesperson, Babatunde Akinbiyi.

He announced that the routes within where the games will take place, which includes Abeokuta, Ijebu-Ode and Remo will experience heavy traffic.

Akinbiyi said: “For the opening ceremony, scheduled to be held on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at the MKO Abiola International Stadium, Kuto, Abeokuta, road users who have no business along the routes leading to the stadium and its environs should avoid the axis.

“Similarly, the route leading to the Alake Sports Centre, Ijeja, where other categories of sporting activities will be held in Abeokuta, would be diverted to one-way traffic from Monday, May 19, 2025, through May 30, 2025, for orderliness to prevail.

“In the same vein, vehicles parked by the roadside along the route should be removed on or before Sunday, May 18, 2025, to avoid being towed.

“Likewise, beats within the Sagamu axis marked for use for the Gateway Games activities, including the NYSC Camp Gate; NYSC Camp Parking Gate; RSS Roundabout; Isale Oko Turning; Ita-Oba Junction; High Court Junction and Express Junction (Diversion Points) would be manned by TRACE operatives, ditto other security agencies to ensure there is no disorderliness, chaos and obstruction.”

Akinbiyi also confirmed that traffic movement around Ijebu-Ode and environs would be diverted to ensure smooth movement to the Dipo Dina stadium.

He said: “Against this backdrop, motorists moving towards Idobi-Idomila axis from Itale-Odoegbo are advised to make a U-turn at Talbot Roundabout, route Mosun Cafe to link Igbeba road and make a right turn at NTA junction to connect GRA and then pass through Otunba Onanuga street to link Idomila road, while those from Idomila moving towards Palace road and Itale axis are advised to ply Otunba Onanuga Street, GRA, to link Igbeba and make a right turn at Femtos junction to connect Talbot Roundabout.

“Nevertheless, TRACE as well as other security operatives will be deployed along the Ogun 18 major traffic corridors where about 10,000 athletes and officials from the 36 states of the Federation, including the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, will be transiting from Babcock University, Ilisan-Remo, where they would all be camped to ensure effective and integrated traffic management, to limit delay, waste man hour and traffic congestion.”

Over 15,000 athletes are expected to compete in both individual and team sports, which will offer a total of 2,150 medals in 549 events.

A total of 626 gold, 626 silver, and 898 bronze medals are up for grabs.

Meanwhile, The Special Adviser to the President on Media, and Public Communications and former Minister of Youth and Sports Development, Sunday Dare, will attend the opening ceremony of the 22nd National Sports Festival on Sunday.
