Chief Olumide Aderinokun has called out the Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun over the low spate of development across the state in 2021.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain in the Gateway State, slammed Abiodun for his ignorance to develop other key sectors in the state aside from road rehabilitation which are taking longer than expected.
Chief Aderinokun who doubles as a property developer and the Co-founder of Olumide and Stephanie Aderinokun Foundation with his wife, revealed his benchmark for the government as he continues to touch lives in Ogun State with his not-for-profit organization.
“The Governor claims to be building the future but sincerely where is it if people cannot point out any new development and basic amenities provided in their local government areas,” Chief Aderinokun added.
“Overall, Ogun State can do better than what we have at the moment. The Amosun administration touched road development across the three Senatorial Districts.
“Governance and leadership is not algebra that you can manipulate with nothing to show in almost three years. The records are there to prove it, insecurity is on another level and for infrastructures, is there any key thing apart from the roads construction we saw in the previous administration?
“A critical look into developments in Ogun Central Senatorial District, shows that through the support of my foundation, we have touched all major sectors that will improve the standard of living of people which is very important and we won’t be resting on our oars in the forthcoming year.
“It is another December to mark the end of 2021, how many achievements can you count in Ogun State without road rehabilitation? Is it only the City Gate and Kobape Estate we have to show as new developments in Ogun Central after 12 months?”
Chief Aderinokun, on his part, initiated Free Fuel for Okada riders in the six Local Government Areas in Ogun Central – a programme which is in its fifth phase, organised a football tournament for youths in Ifo and Ewekoro LGAs, non-interest loans for traders in the Central Senatorial District, compensation funds worth #50,000 each for victims of Lafenwa Market fire and scholarships worth #50,000 each to 60 Secondary School students, all under the 12 months in 2021.
