The Governor added that his office is open to ideas that can develop the State as he is ready to run an open government to give the people who voted for him the opportunity to contribute to governance.

Earlier, Chief Medical Director, Uniosun Teaching Hospital, Professor Peter Olaitan appreciated the Governor for approving the hazard allowance and other allowances for the medical workers as well as approval for the employment of more staff. 

Professor Olaitan appealed to the Governor to approve capital funds for the hospital so as to enable them to procure other necessary equipment for the hospital.

Also speaking, the Chairman, Nigeria Medical Association, NMA, Osun branch, Dr. Adetoye Adedapo who congratulates the Governor for his victory at the Supreme Court solicited the support of the Governor for the association to host national NMA games in November this year.
