Lawmaker repesenting Ibadan North East/South East in the House of Reprsentatives, Rep. Abass Adigun (Agboworin), on Sunday, stated that the vision and commitment of the Oyo State Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde, to a safer Oyo State is taking a good shape.
The lawmaker’s comment comes on the heels of the recent commissioning of the NAF School of Business and Accounts in the Air Force Base located in Ajia area of Ibadan.
The lawmaker, in a statement signed by his Media Group in Ibadan, explained that the governor’s pivotal role in terms of enabling environment, all-the-time moral and financial support for the NAF cannot be overemphasised.
According to him, the governor’s unwavering support and commitment to the project have been instrumental in the success so far recorded in the Base.
Agboworin, who is a two-term lawmaker and Chairman, House Committee on Narcotic Drugs, highlighted the governor’s moral and financial support, which he believes have been very crucial to the progress of the project.
He noted that as the project continues to progress, the base will play an increasingly important role in maintaining peace and stability not only in Oyo State but the entire South West region.
In the same vein, the lawmaker thanked the Central Council for Ibadan Indigenes (CCII), the Chairman of Ilaji hotels and resort, Engr. Dotun Sanusi, and other groups for their commendation on various media platforms.
The statement read, “Personally, I really want to commend my Principal and the governor of our dear state, governor Makinde for his kind and generous suport to the Nigerian Air Force Base project in Ibadan. I can boldly say that his vision and commitment to a safer Oyo State is taking a good shape.
“I wish to state that after the comissioning of the NAF School of Finance and Accounts in the Base, a lot of those who admire the project have come out to commend my contribution but, to me, the governor made this wonderful project a reality in our Pacesetter state.
“Talk of commitment, he has shown it in a bid to enhancing the state’s security infrastructure, which has been evident in his support for the Air Force Base.
“As we all know, on the day of the project’s flag-off, the governor donated a substantial amount of money. And he is still making efforts theough regular monitoring to make sure this project is actualised in record time.
“After then, he has continued to do the needful in showing more support, and I am sure he would continue to fulfill his promises towards the Base.
“We should know this project would not have achieved its current level of success without the governor’s necessary support.
“We have seen that out of 18 structures that the Base is meant to house, 12 have been completed and commissioned, while the remaining six projects are still at various stages of execution. Can this go without not acknowledging him? No.
“There is no doubt that his support underscores the importance of collaborative governance in driving development initiatives for the benefit of the people of our dear Oyo State. I believe with his continued support, the Base is poised to become a hub for military excellence in the region.
“So, as the state continues to benefit from the numerous initiatives of the governor, residents can look forward to a more secure and prosperous future for Oyo State.”
