VOICE AIR MEDIA News Update

THE Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke and his Edo State counterpart, Godwin Obaseki, on Tuesday, unveiled projects donated by Chief Olakanmi Sarumi in Ilesa, Osun State.

Speaking at the unveiling of the road and other projects donated to the Wesley Guild Hospital, an annex of the OAU Teaching Hospital, Ilesa, Adeleke and Obaseki commended the Sarumi family for giving back to the society.

Adeleke, who urged other well-meaning Osun indigenes across the world to join the tax credit scheme for infrastructure development of the state, further said, “I use this event as a point of contact with other well-meaning Osun indigenes at home and abroad to join the tax credit scheme for infrastructure development of our state. This window of opportunity is a veritable win-win situation for the state and its residents.

“This is a good example for others to follow. Our government will provide an enabling environment to ensure that the credit scheme works. Interested residents and even friends of Osun will get in our government a facilitator for development and economic growth.”

A statement by the spokesperson for the Osun State governor, Olawale Rasheed, noted that the financier of the two-kilometre road, which spanned from Old Garage to the 125-year-old Cathedral Church, Iloro in Ilesa, commended the two governors for delivery on good governance.

Sarumi equally thanked the Osun State Government for passing the infrastructural development and Tax Scheme which enabled the Sarumi family to embark on the projects

After commissioning the road, the governors moved to the OAU Teaching Hospital, Wesley Guild Hospital Ilesa, where they commissioned Mediada wards and the Sarumi Laboratory and Diagnostic Centre for the use of the public.
