The chairman of the South West Agenda for Asiwaju (SWAGA ’23), Dayo Adeyeye, has commended the Ekiti state governor, Abiodun Oyebanji for restoring dignity to Ekiti land.
Adeyeye, in a statement in Abuja on Wednesday, October 18, expressed delight that Oyebanji has been able to restore the glory and dignity of the Ekiti people within the first year of his administration.
The SWAGA ’23 boss observed that there has been a paradigm shift in leadership focus since Governor Oyebanji assumed office on October 18, 2022.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain said there has been remarkable progress and development in the state on account of Oyebanji’s pragmatic approach to governance.
He predicted brighter days ahead for the people of the state, stressing that the governor has provided the right environment for all to thrive.
Adeyeye also hailed Oyebanji for embracing Persons Living With Disabilities (PLWDs) and identifying with their special needs in his administration’s policy options.
He commended the governor for making governance accessible to the people, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
Adeyeye said: “Governor Oyebanji has brought a paradigm shift and broader perspective to governance in Ekiti state for the short period he has been in office.
“The governor has embraced inclusiveness thereby unifying key APC members and other stakeholders who are critical to the development of the state.
“Oyebanji has been governing Ekiti State in line with the progressive agenda of the APC so he’s been meeting the expectations of the people that gave him their mandate and the party that gave him a platform.
“The Ekiti governor has brought a breath of fresh air to Ekiti by giving priority attention to the welfare of workers and the masses in the state.
“This has engendered peace, unity and stability in Ekiti land as workers now get their wages and state-owned institutions get their subventions as appropriate.”
Adeyeye urged the governor to remain focused on service delivery and to work hard towards sustaining peace, unity and stability for Ekiti to realise its full potential.
He added: “Governor Oyebanji should continue to set new goals and unlock new opportunities along the way because governance is a journey and not a destination.
