THE National Coordinator of the Ileri Oluwa Next Level Progressive Movement (INLPM), Chief Owoeye Samuel Abiodun (OSA), has appealed to President Bola Tinubu, to create special funds for 774 local government areas across the country for the construction of at least, 5km to 20 kilometers of roads to ease the pains of the rural dwellers.
The Coordinator of NLPM, made the calls on Monday in Osogbo during the movement’s annual interdenominational prayer for 2024, held at Osogbo, Osun state capital, while addressing the Journalists.
Owoeye appealed to President of the nation, to approve more funds to local governments in Nigeria with a view to enhancing the development of the grassroots.
“President Tinubu, National Assembly should approve 5km to 20k roads construction in each local government, every year across the nation, as this will reduce crime, this will also create job for the masses at the grassroots and to make life more comfortable to citizens.”
“The issue of the mismanagement of the palliatives given to states that did not reach the beneficiaries is a thing of concern to well meaning Nigerians. To this effect, one of the best way of reaching the people at the grassroots, is ensuring that their lots are bettered through the provision of amenities” he said.
Owoeye further declared that the group, the Next Level Progressive Movement, INLPM, which have 313 ward coordinators and thousands of members stand for the unity and progress of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Osun state and at the national level.
During the interdenominational prayer, Professor Ifedayo Akinmoladun, urged the movement to give their maximum support to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola, to enable him achieve tremendous success that could help to lift Nigeria to a higher pedestal and for the restoration of the country lost glory.

Akere said the incumbent Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke has desecrated the culture of selection of our royal fathers by sacking those who had already passed through all selection processes of their communities.
He decried the governor’s action as being politically motivated which he insisted could not stand, citing the case of Owa of Igbajo, Oba Famodun whose selection process spanned over 200 days before his coronation as Oba, yet Adeleke sacked him.
Akere called on well meaning Nigerians to intervene on looming crisis about to befall the state as a result of self centeredness of the governor.
He further stated that, “state APC members are law abiding citizens of Osun state and we will not allow Adeleke’s government to silent opposition in the state”.
The event which was carnival-like saw members of the Movement dancing and praising God for his protection and guidance as they called on God to bring back the glory of Nigeria through the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and for God to put an end to incessant bloodshed and hardships in Nigeria”
Present at the event were; 332 coordinators of all the federal constituency including members of the planning committee, Representative of Prince Dotun Babayemi, anointed men of God, and other dignitaries in the state and at the federal level.
