‘’The Osun example notably is a worthy alternative to developing Nigeria and should be sustained and above all scaled across the nation. This was part of the drive for the OEDP to have conceived of this initiative and particularly to have an independent, non-political appraisal of the goings in Osun which undoubtedly has been adjudged by all as exemplary’’, Akinola stated.
