The Speaker, Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin says the signing of the Oyo State Project Monitoring Agency Bill, 2024 into law by Governor Seyi Makinde is timely and will improve service delivery and ensure projects are completed on time.
The Speaker gave the commendation shortly after witnessing the signing of the Bill on Thursday at the Executive Chamber, Governor’s office, Secretariat, Ibadan.
” It was a great honour for me to witness the signing into law of the Oyo State Project Monitoring Agency Bill, 2024 by His Excellency, Engr Seyi Makinde.
“This is a further attestation to the avowed resolve of the present administration in Oyo State to monitor and evaluate consultants and projects performance level based on delivery, time and contractual agreements with Government.
“The quest for value for money in Government activities especially for projects executed and contracts approved by the State Government led to the creation of this Agency. This will put an end to a large number of erstwhile uncompleted and abandoned projects in the State. Hence the importance of Oyo State Project Monitoring Agency cannot be underscored.” Oyo Speaker said.
He reiterated that the Agency will ensure efficient and effective programmes and projects implementation.
The Speaker congratulated the Executive Assistant to the Governor on Project Monitoring, Engr Open Salawu who is going to head the Agency, and charged him and his team to ensure continuous feedback to Government on its various projects.
” I will like to use this medium to congratulate the Executive Assistant to His Excellency on Project Monitoring, Engr. Open Salawu who is going to head the Agency, and the other team members, and charge them to justify the confidence reposed in them by working to improve contractors performance and ensuring timely and effective execution of projects across the State.”
