The Lawmaker representing Obokun/ Oriade Federal Federal Constituency, Honourable Busayo Oluwole Oke has congratulated Osun State Governor, Mr. Gboyega Oyetola on the celebration of his second anniversary in office.

Oke in a statement personally signed by him said, Mr. Oyetola’s governance in the state, though has witnessed tremendous developments in the area of education and workers welfare, there is still a need to do more on poverty alleviation and community development.

He stated that it is heart warming to note that Oyetola had reversed the obnoxious educational policies foisted on the state, which had brought setbacks to the educational standards of Osun state.

The veteran legislator said that the people are now happy that their state is no longer state of Osun but Osun State in conformity with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria ( as amended).

He also identified improved workers’ welfare and condition of service for staffers of various ministries, agencies and parastatals in the state as part of the success recorded in the last two years.

While urging the governor to be more focused, Oke advised him not to renege his promises for the workers, stressing that “the governor should embark and focus more on youth empowerment, and other programmes that would enhance welfare and further socio-economic advancement of the state.

He also charged the governor to use the rest of his tenure to draw more attention to some rural roads within his constituency, such as roads, according to him included : Ipetu-Ijesa – Ifetedo road, Ìjẹ̀bú-Jẹ̀ṣà – Esa-Odo – Ilare – Otan-Ilé road abd Esa-Oke – Esa-Odo road.

Oke also called on the governor to ensure security of lives and property of the people of Ijesa land, especially against miners who are perpetrating evils in the area as they are forcefully exploiting gold and other mineral resources in Obokun and Oriade Local Governments and other parts of Ijesa land.

The Legislator also appealed to Governor Oyetola to use his good office to rehabilitate tourism sites in his Constituency, especially the Olumirin Water Fall in Erin-Ijesa and Kiriji War Site, Imesi-Ile.

The Lawmaker also enjoined the governor to ensure fairness and transparency in the forthcoming local government election in the state.
