Ataoja To Osun Workers: Resume Work

THE Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Olanipekun, has appealed to workers to resume so that Governor Rauf Aregbesola can kick start the recovery of the economy.
Speaking with reporters in his palace in Osogbo yesterday, the traditional ruler, who praised workers for their patience, urged labour leaders to show understanding.
Oba Olanipekun decried the propaganda about the Aregbesola administration.
“We have been reading on the Internet and newspapers that some people are trying to jeopardise the good effort of the government.
“And we have to enlighten the public. Aregbesola should be praised for his numerous achievements.
“Despite the fact that Osun is the least paid in terms of federal allocation, Aregbesola has achieved far more than his predecessors.
“He has changed the face of the state, particularly Osogbo. He has repaired many roads in the state.
“Aregbesola has recorded several achievements. I beg the workers to rally round him to make the state bounce back.
“I’m appealing to workers to show understanding. Some of the roads he built and rehabilitated have attracted development to the state. We, the people of Osogbo, have no regret in supporting Aregbesola.”
