Osun at 30: We’re committed to participatory governance, says Oyetola

…lauds Osun Development Association on strategic partnership

Governor Adegboyega Oyetola of the State of Osun has reiterated his Administration’s commitment to participatory and inclusive governance.

This is as he lauded the Osun Development Association (ODA) for its role in the struggle for the State’s creation and the strategic partnership it has offered over the years.

Speaking on Saturday during a virtual interactive session of the governor with the Osun Development Association, Governor Oyetola invited more stakeholders in the Osun project to partner with the State in the journey ahead.

“The journey has been quite interesting and I want to commend the Osun Development Association for being partners in progress in the affairs of the State.

“From the inception of our Administration, we made it clear that we would be running a participatory government because no one has monopoly of knowledge.

“So, we appreciate what this Association has contributed to the development of the State and invite other stakeholders to follow this example of strategic partnership.

“We will give a cursory look at the issues raised during this interactive session.

“We have a State Development Plan that runs for ten years and we have ensured that our budgets align with this plan.

“With respect to mining, what played out before now was purely artisanal mining which had its flaws. But now, we have done well to open up the sector to investors who will guarantee responsible mining.

“We have tried to create awareness about the values in our culture through the adire osun project.

“Security has been a challenge all over, but Osun has remained perhaps the most peaceful State in Nigeria. On the part of government, we have been able to foster partnership between conventional and the local security outfit in a properly-regulated manner.

“We have a Committee on Farmers and Herders Matters and we have been able to manage issues that may likely emanate from that corner”, Oyetola explained.
