IPP to power more than the Govt. House – Makinde

By Web News 734 0

Oyo State governor, Engineer Seyi Makinde says contrary to claims by some opposition elements, the Independent Power Project, IPP, embarked upon by his administration will not only power the Government House but will power other critical state assets including schools, hospitals, streetlights and stadium, among others.

He stated this while speaking at the special Thanksgiving Service held at First Baptist Church, Igbojaye, Itesiwaju Local Government Area of Oyo State.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr Taiwo Adisa, also quotes the governor as telling critics to always assess the performance of his administration based on his electoral promises. 

He added that his administration would continue to leverage on the four comparative advantages of Oke Ogun and the state generally, which includes agribusiness, tourism, solid minerals and commerce.

“In Oyo State, we have both comparative and competitive advantages in about four areas. One is agribusiness.”

“When we went to Brent Farm at Ijio, the owner said that from the survey, the area is the most fertile in Nigeria, and it is the same for most places in Oke-Ogun. So, if we talk about competitive and comparative advantages in agribusiness, Oke-Ogun has a place.”

“The second area is solid minerals and Oke-Ogun will also feature when we talk about the development of solid minerals. Another aspect is Tourism. The hanging lake, which is at Ado-Awaye, is a perfect example and the Oke-Ogun zone will feature too. The deepest Gorge Dam on the entire continent of Africa is at Ikere. So, this zone will also feature as far as tourism is concerned.”

“The last is commerce. Oyo State shares an international border, which is between Ibarapa and Oke-Ogun axis. So, Oke-Ogun also features in commerce. So, as a government, if we want to lead our people from poverty to prosperity as we mentioned in our roadmap for accelerated development, we have to focus on those areas.”

“And what exactly are those things we need to do? We need to develop our infrastructure and that is why, six months into this government, we awarded the Moniya-Iseyin road. If we also talk about commerce, Saki is almost the furthermost city in Oyo State, which is closer to the border with the Republic of Benin. That was why we focused on completing the Saki Township road, which is done right now.”

Earlier in his sermon, the President of Oke Ogun Baptist Convention, Reverend (Dr.) Gabriel Olanrewaju noted that the nation needs trustworthy leaders to survive its challenges.

Reverend Olanrewaju added that leaders must also fear God in their dealings.

We are ready to follow Supreme Court Ruling – Oyo Govt.

By Web News 558 0

The Oyo State government has stated that it was on the same page with the Justices of the Supreme Court in its May 7, 2021 ruling, which ordered the payment of salaries and allowances of the dissolved chairmen and councilors of local government councils in the state.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Taiwo Adisa, says Oyo State government as a believer in the rule of law will comply with the ruling of the apex court.

The government declared that it had showcased its commitment to paying off the dissolved chairmen and councilors as far back as February 2020, when its negotiation team, pursuant to the out-of-court order of the Oyo State High Court, offered the council chairmen and councilors the same condition which the Supreme Court just affirmed.

According to the statement, the government of Oyo State would comply with the order of the apex court once the details of the ruling are made available.

The statement read: “We are on the same page with the Supreme Court of the land on the ruling which ordered the payment of salaries and allowances of the dissolved local governments.

“The apex court in its decision rejected the dissolution, affirmed that the tenure of the council chairmen had lapsed, while also asking that the state pay salaries and allowances due to them till the end of their tenure.”

“The Court also awarded a cost of 20 million naira and asked the Attorney General of Oyo State to file an affidavit of compliance latest August 7, 2021. 

“A similar decision was given against the Government of Katsina State, with the same cost of 20 million naira awarded against it.

“As far as we are concerned, the Supreme Court, by that judgment, made a policy decision, being a policy court. It was apparently sending a message to states in its attempt to protect elected local governments councils.”

“Recall that the state government had long before the ruling of the Supreme Court offered to pay the salaries and allowances of the dissolved local government chairmen. The said council chairmen scuttled the bid at the time because they came up with absolute terms, insisting that they must return to the councils with all their aides.”

By Web News 798 0

Oyo State Governor, Engineer Seyi Makinde says his administration will complete the 32-kilometre stretch, First Phase of Ibadan Circular Road, before the end of his tenure on May 28, 2023.

The governor who stated this during a tour of the project said his administration had to sack the contractor inherited from the previous administration due to unsatisfactory slow pace of work.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, stated that the governor, however, promised to pay the sacked contractor for evaluated work done.

As at the time of the governor made the on-the-spot assessment, only two kilometres of the 32-kilometre road had been tarred at the level of wearing cost by ENL Consortium Construction Company.

Insecurity: Makinde Meets Buhari, Demands More Mobile Police Squadrons in Oyo

By Web News 504 0

Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, on Wednesday, met with President Muhammadu Buhari to discuss the security situation in the state, declaring that his administration remains resolute about fighting bandits, hoodlums, armed robbers and kidnappers.

Governor Makinde, who addressed State House Correspondents in Abuja, said the real enemies of the state are the criminal elements.

He equally sought for greater synergy between the state and the federal security agencies, noting that collaborations are required for the state’s security plans to work effectively.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary, CPS, to the governor, Mr Taiwo Adisa, indicated that Goveror Makinde told the newsmen that he was in Abuja to brief the President on the security situation in Oyo State.

The governor said: “I came to brief the President on the security situation in Oyo State. There has been a lot of fake news all around and I wanted to be sure that the President clearly has first-hand information from me, which I did.”

“We also exchanged ideas about what we need to do better; some of the programmes we have put in place to ensure that this security issue is tackled. So, that’s basically why I came here.”

“The issue that I discussed with Mr. President is the fact that Oyo State landmass is quite big. Oyo State is close to 29,000 square kilometres. And the state right now only has two Mobile Police Squadrons.”

“So, I requested for more Mobile Police Squadrons to be deployed to Oyo State and also asked for support for the joint security outfit because the underlying issue here also has to do with limited opportunities.”

“The tension will definitely go down if a lot of our youths are gainfully employed. So, I briefed the President on what we are doing in that regard.”.

“We have a history of living together peacefully among all the ethnic groups that are present in Oyo State. For instance, what triggered all of these was that Dr Aborode was brutally murdered; that is criminal. But on the other hand, the Seriki, Alhaji Kabir, has been staying in that same place for 40 years.”

“So, quite frankly, the people we are after are criminals – they are the bandits, hoodlums, armed robbers, kidnappers. Those are the true enemies of the state and those are the people we will go after.”

“The constitution of Nigeria guarantees that you can live in any part of Nigeria. You just have to be law-abiding and obey the local laws in such areas. That is what we are pushing and will continue to push as a government.”
