“When the election results are announced, you will see that our promises are not empty words,” the monarch assured.
Addressing the community’s concerns, the governor assured the gathering that his administration was actively tackling illegal mining, adding that his government would address other issues as they arise, within the limits of available resources.
At Oke-Igbo, the Regent of the community, Princess Olusola Olufunke Babajide, who presented the community’s needs, praised Governor Aiyedatiwa for his leadership style within the short period since he assumed office and commended him for appointing indigenes of the area into his administration.
Governor Aiyedatiwa said his administration remained committed to the development of all parts of Ondo State. He assured that he would tackle the challenges faced by the coalition of LCDAs.Aiyedatiwa promised to ensure that they were established and operational to bring governance closer to the people. The governor said all outstanding development projects would be completed.
A former Commissioner for Finance, Wale Akinterinwa, canvassed support for Aiyedatiwa and assured the people that they would benefit more from an APC-led administration.
