A Chieftain of the APC and
House of Representatives aspirant for Ayedire/Iwo/Ola-Oluwa Federal Constituency, Engr Saheed Ganiyu has praised Governor Gboyega Oyetola for the economic gains in Osun state under his administration, attributing the development to the financial prowess and understanding of the state governor.
Ganiyu who described Oyetola as a financial wizard said despite the meager resources and slim allocation accruing to the state as monthly allocation, due to inherited debts, Oyetola has done better than expected considering the state’s financial situation.
He stated this while addressing Stakeholders at a meeting held in Iwo, where he officially declared his intention to represent Ayedire/Iwo/Ola-Oluwa Constituency at the Federal House of Representatives, Abuja.

He noted that if given the opportunity to represent the people of Ayedire/Iwo/Ola-Oluwa Federal Constituency at the lower chamber , he would do everything within his reach to ensure he complements the efforts of the governor in a bid to take the state to greater heights.
He said: “I respect our indefatigable governor for his Financial prudence. As a matter of fact, Gov Oyetola could be better described as a financial wizard who had turned the state around within the space of three years despite the meager resources and slim allocation accrued to the state monthly as a result of inherited debts .
“Oyetola has Performed tremendously well in the area of human and Infrastructural development. He is a man of his words , a silent achiever who had displayed high level of of exceptional stewardship and leadership skills
