The Osun State Government on Friday announced 16-day celebrations to commemorate Governor Ademola Adeleke’s second anniversary as governor of the state.
Mr. Teslim Igbalaye, Secretary to the Osun State Government, praised Adeleke for his service delivery while unveiling the programs planned for the celebrations.
According to Igbalaye, events planned for the celebrations include a health walk, novelty match, Jumaat, church service, state awards presentation, and project commissioning.
The SSG stated that former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, among others, would launch some of the administration’s finished projects.
He also stated that projects would be inaugurated across the state’s 30 local government areas.
He noted that the Osun state governor and the Minister of Works, David Umahi, will also turn the sod on some new projects that would be launched at the administration’s second anniversary.
“Some of the activities lined up include: Jumaat service, novelty football match, executive versus legislature, church service, and commissioning of Old Garage-Oke Fia Dual Carriage by ex President Olusegun Obasanjo.
“Presentation of bond certificates to contributory pensioners and presentation of awards to Governor Adeleke by the contributory pensioners would also be held.
“There will also be commissioning of Osogbo Ring Road by Governor Makinde, as well as foundation laying for the airport project by the Minister of Aviation/Works,” Igbalaye said.
Commenting on the administration’s successes over the last two years, Igbalaye stated that Adeleke had exceeded expectations and that an increase in political activities would not distract the governor from completing all current projects.
