Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke says he will be holding a series of Town Hall meetings tagged “Ipade Imole” to serve as an accountability forum for government activities.

The governor in a statement by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed declared that the forum will be held on a quarterly basis with a focus on detailed reports of government finance, revenue inflows, expenditure and ongoing and completed projects.

The “Ipade Imole” will involve relevant government agencies delivering reports of activities of each ministry to give details of ongoing projects, how much it costs, stages of completion and other contractual details to the public through the forum.

Governor Adeleke said aside from being a forum for accountability on the side of the government, it would also provide an avenue for policy ideas from civil society, media and the public into the government policy processes.

The quarterly forum will involve participants from various sectors of society while, interested members of the public, media and civil society will also have the opportunity to visit project sites and assess stages and quality of work done.

He assured the people of Osun State that each forum will equip them with publications on government activities and also avail them the space to question and interface with relevant agencies and officials.

Governor Adeleke who said his 100 days of activities by the end of March marked the first mini “Ipade Imole” added that the first expanded forum will hold by June ending at a senatorial district to be announced.
