Gov Oyebanji begs indigenes to join him tackle poverty, unemployment
The Ekiti State Governor, Biodun Oyebanji, has appealed to all Ekiti indigenes to coalesce efforts with him in the task of building a state that will be economically viable, socially mobile and politically recognised among the comity of states in Nigeria.
Oyebanji posited that his government was ready to relate with every citizen, regardless of class, political belief and religious inclination, as long as the interest of the state and its development are taking the centre stage.
The Governor spoke on Friday, at an event organised by a former House of Representatives member, Wunmi Ogunlola, for the people of Ijero Local Government Area.
Oyebanji, represented by his Deputy, Monisade Afuye, commended the former House of Assembly lawmaker, for deeming it fit to empower her people to cushion the effect of astronomic increase in the prices of commodities in the nation.
Despite the crunchy economic situation, the governor assured Nigerian citizens that the day of abundance is imminent in view of the pragmatic reforms being initiated by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to rejuvenate the economy.
On the economic situation of the country, Governor Oyebanji said, “The day of joy is imminent. With the gradual pick up of our economy, because of the actions being taken by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I am sure that our days of abundance are on the way”.
Ogunlola, who is a Commissioner in the Board of Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC), said she would continue to form a strong synergy with Governor Oyebanji to mitigate poverty and unemployment in the land through personal philanthropic gestures.
Mrs Ogunlola added that she will stride hard to offer hope for the less fortunate, whether she is in position of authority or not, saying impacting positively in the lives of the masses remains the hallmark of effective leadership.
