Oyo Pension's Board Chairman, Hon Rafiu Tunji Adekunle Commends Makinde For Remaining True To People-centred Vision
I commend you for remaining true to your people-centered vision for Oyo State. Your commitment to prioritizing the needs of the citizens, rather than relying on politicians, is truly admirable.
Under your leadership, Oyo State has witnessed significant development, particularly in the areas of education, healthcare, security, and agribusiness. Your Roadmap for Accelerated Development in Oyo State has been instrumental in driving growth and progress in the state.
Your people-first approach is evident in initiatives like SAfER (Sustainable Actions for Economic Recovery), which has provided relief to over 200,000 households, subsidized transportation for over 20,000 people daily, and supported smallholder farmers and businesses.
Moreover, your love and concern for pensioners and retirees are noteworthy. Your administration's efforts to clear outstanding pension arrears, ensure timely payment of pensions, and improve the overall welfare of retirees demonstrate your commitment to their well-being.
I also commend your administration's efforts to strengthen the state's civil service. The recent appointment of 48 permanent secretaries is a significant milestone, demonstrating your commitment to meritocracy and good governance. This move will undoubtedly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the state's bureaucracy.
Additionally, your administration's recruitment of teachers and other civil servants has helped to address critical manpower gaps in key sectors, ensuring that Oyo State's citizens receive quality services.
Your dedication to serving the people of Oyo State, including the most vulnerable, is a testament to your leadership and vision. I applaud your efforts in making Oyo State a better place for all citizens, regardless of age or status.
Thank you for being a true servant of the people, Governor Makinde.
