We’re Determined To Turn Osun To A Business Hub In Nigeria, Says Oyetola

The Osun state Governor, Gboyega Oyetola, on Tuesday expresssed his determination to turn the state to a business hub in the Southwest and Nigeria as a whole.

He said to achieve this, strategic efforts are already in place to massively woo investors to the state in order to deliver prosperity to the people. He plans to create job opportunities to reduce poverty and transform the economy of the state.

Governor Oyetola disclosed this at the foundation laying ceremony of Aluminium and copper rolling mill and commissioning of metal recycling company by Albareek De Global Investment Limited in Agbungbu Village, Sekona/Ife road.

The Governor who was represented by his deputy Mr Benedict Olugboyega Alabi said that there is no doubt that the choice of the state by Abareak De Global Investment Limited is a product of research and deep thinking among which are the robust and prevailing peace in the state, availability of raw materials, relatively stable power supply and closeness of Osun to major cities in the Southwest.

He assured that his government would continue to provide an enabling environment for the growth of industries and people’s businesses around the state.

According to Governor Oyetola, the core component of the agenda of his government is to develop the rural areas through provision of basic infrastructure and resources for the upliftment of rural dwellers.

He appreciated the company for being an ally in this area with the choice of Agbungbu Village, a rural settlement for her business destination.

He used the occasion to appeal to both local and foreign investors to emulate the company and take advantage of the government initiatives in considering the state as their business destination.

He also pledged the readiness of his government to support investment on production in the areas of registration and acquisition of Certificate of Occupancy to seek for assistance of financial institutions in setting up businesses and industries in the state.

“Be rest assured that we shall continue to provide an enabling environment for your company and others to ensure your growth and profitability.

I will like to congratulate the people of Agbungbu for the privilege of having two gigantic companies. Let me appeal to you to reciprocate this kind gesture by showing the company the Omoluabi ethos which the state is known for and give good hospitality to the company and ensure a peaceful environment to do business”, Governor Oyetola said.
