REMARKS OF HIS EXCELLENCY AT HIS OFFICIAL.PRESENTATIONN AS THE GOVERNOR OF THE YEAR 2024 BY THE TOP MANAGEMENT REPRESENTATIVES OF THE LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPERS

PROTOCOLS

I am really excited to host the management of Leadership newspapers here at the Government House. Your visit is another example of positive national attention Osun has been getting since we assumed the governorship in late 2022. Osun State is constantly getting recognitions for what outsiders and even opposition members regard as our commendable performance.

In the last one year, our government has been conferred with several awards across the sectors. Aside from reputable newspapers like the leadership stable, we have received accolades from several federal agencies and non-governmental bodies. The consensus from those reviewing our performance and service delivery is that we are true agents of good governance.

In all these positive ratings, my response has always been to task my team to double their efforts. In the face of overwhelming positive reviews and high approval ratings , I am compelled to drive my team harder. When recently some opposition figures confessed to our positive ratings, I still believe we have a lot of grounds to cover.

I am not allowing the praises to enter my head. While it may be true that I have delivered a four year task in under two years, I am propelled to do more because Osun has been left behind on many fronts. As I have reduced the infra deficit by over 40 percent, my real target Is higher. As I have bridged access to primary health care, my ambition is to also expand health access at medium and tertiary levels. While our records across the sectors are laudable as your newspaper has acknowledged, the ultimate goal is to accelerate infra upgrade alongside the boosting of soft investment for the well being of our people.

I appreciate your candid endorsement of our performance. It is important to note that your yardstick for recognizing us correlates with similar reasons adduced by others. Our huge governance records are undeniable facts especially in workers welfare, infrastructure delivery, educational expansion, health care access improvement, solid mineral sector reforms, digital economy initiatives, agricultural mechanisation among others.

I want to assure the public that our administration is not slowing down. Very soon, I will flag off ongoing remodeling of Osogbo stadium to assume international standard. Prior to the ongoing stadium project, we have engineered the creation of Osun Sport Commission and Osun Sport Fund through appropriate legal and policy framework.

Very soon, I will be flagging off the dualisation of phase one of Odoori – Post office road at Iwo. The contractor for Iwo -Osogbo road has mobilized to site. We plan to complete the two projects within the life of this administration. Meanwhile, the dualisation project at Ilesa is progressing while the flyover bridge at Ile Ife is ongoing with appreciable progress. 2025 is billed to be a year of further expansion of good.governance for the good of man and humanity.

Once again, I thank you for this award. It will further propel us to serve our people better.

I look forward to closer partnership with your very credible platform.

I thank you for listening.

HE, SENATOR ADEMOLA ADELEKE,
EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF OSUN STATE
