The National Coordinator of the South West Agenda for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Senator Adedayo Adeyeye, has commended the Ekiti State Governor, Abiodun Oyebanji, for restoring dignity to governance in the state.

The former Minister of State for Works, who is also a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, gave the commendation in a statement made available to THISDAY in Abuja yesterday.

He said the governor had made “remarkable progress and development in Ekiti in the last 12 months on account of his pragmatic approach to governance.”

Adeyeye, while appraising the leadership of Oyebanji in the last one year in the south west state thanked him for restoring dignity to Ekiti State and for giving the people a new lease of life.

The former governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, maintained that he had observed a paradigm shift in the leadership of the state since Oyebanji assumed office.

Part of his statement read: “There have been remarkable progress and development in Ekiti State in the last 12 months on account of Oyebanji’s pragmatic approach to governance.

“I foresee brighter days ahead for the people of the state, because the governor has provided the right environment for all to thrive. I also commend Governor Oyebanji for embracing Persons Living With Disabilities (PLWDs) and identifying with their special needs in his administration’s policy options.

“He has made governance accessible to the people of Ekiti State regardless of their socio-economic status. It’s a thing of joy to observe that the governor has brought a paradigm shift and broader perspective to governance in Ekiti state for the short period he has been in office.

“Oyebanji has embraced inclusiveness thereby unifying key APC members and other stakeholders, who are critical to the development of the state. I am proud to state that our governor has been governing Ekiti State in line with the progressive agenda of the APC.

“That’s why he is able to meet the expectations of the people that gave him their mandate and the party that gave him a platform. The Ekiti governor has brought a breath of fresh air to Ekitiland by giving priority attention to the welfare of workers and the masses in the state.”
