In view of the current circumstances we have found ourselves, I want to urge our youth to be calm and patient as we are taking measures to ensure that the situation is put under control.
As your government that is compassionate about the welfare of its people, We suspended our rallies as a means of showing empathy with the people and we have also taken further steps by engaging critical stakeholders in the banking sector,...
... which is not limited to top officials of @cenbank in Ogun State and Bankers' Committee so as to ameliorate the suffering of our people.
We paid a crucial visit to the Ogun State headquarters of the @cenbank in Abeokuta where we had a quick but indepth brainstorming session with top officials on ways to relieve the groaning people of the State of the tiresome cash crunch. 
In addition, I made a call on the apex bank to intensify verifiable efforts to ensure wide and nonselective distribution, as well as tackle hoarding in deposit money banks.
We are hopeful that this essential session together with our visit alongside other concerned Governors to President Muhammadu Buhari in would bring the much needed solution to this troubling situation.
Ogun State will in the nearest time be host to a three billion dollars oil refinery, to be located in Tongeji Island of Ipokia LGA.
A result of our PPP with Gasoline Integrated International, the phased 400,000-litre-per-day refinery project will serve our people's local petroleum needs, provide over 10,000 direct & indirect jobs, boost the state's IGR, as well as improve infrastructure & technology.
I remarked with joy when I received the company directors led by the Chairman, Dr Lukman Bolaji today, that while this is God's compensation to us for losing a similar project to another state before our Administration, it is also a result of our stable investment drive set on...

In the past 13 days, Ogun State and indeed the whole of Nigeria have witnessed resounding protests from a majority youth population, clamouring for an end to the now disbanded SARS; a holistic reform of the Nigeria Police; and a sundry other demands, which have so far...
... significantly disrupted the daily socioeconomic lives of our people.
In solidarity with the totality of peaceful protesters exercising their fundamental rights, I facilitated the immediate release from custody, of over 30 of our youth on behalf of our responsible and responsive Government.
In line with my earlier announcement, we have today inaugurated the State Judicial Panel of Investigation led by Hon. Justice Solomon Olugbemi (rtd), according to the resolutions of the the National Economic Council, NEC meeting of 15th October.
The setting up of this Panel, as well as a support fund, committee, office, forensic lab, and online complaints portal, is a demonstration of our Administration's commitment to true democracy and fundamental human rights.
The terms of reference of the Panel, which will conclude its assignment within six (6) months, are:
I have received with serious concern, news of the developments in the protests in the Sango axis of Ogun State over the poor condition of the Federal Roads in the vital area: Lagos-Sango-Abeokuta Expressway, Ota-Idiroko, and Sango-Oju Ore roads.
This is understandable, and no security agency will intimidate or stop any protester from making their needs known.
However, while we have already initiated palliative works on Ota-Idiroko Road; the same thing will commence on the Ota area of Lagos-Sango-Abeokuta Expressway where more, needed materials and equipment will soon be delivered; and full reconstruction of the Sango-Joju Road is...
We have appointed the winner of the @BBNaija Lockdown, @itsLaycon Youth Ambassador of Ogun State in addition to house and cash gifts.
I relayed this development today, when I played host to Olamilekan Moshood Agbelesebioba AKA Laycon in my Oke-Mosan office in Abeokuta.
I relayed this development today, when I played host to Olamilekan Moshood Agbelesebioba AKA Laycon in my Oke-Mosan office in Abeokuta.
The appointment and gifts are a celebration of Laycon's good character, intellect and virtues which were proven to the whole world on live TV as better choices than vices.
A proud son of Ogun State, Laycon displayed the essence of focus in the face of temptations and provocations. This is the true Ogun State spirit, and it indeed confirms that this earned him his academic achievement at the University of Lagos.
Today, we have more than enough reasons to jubilate and reflect on our joint growth in Ogun State, as the world habitat is celebrated alongside teachers all over the world. Our habitats are like our teachers: they accommodate our inadequacies as we get better.
This is why we have prioritised housing infrastructure and will be delivering 12,500 housing units before year 2023.
I disclosed this at the commemoration event held in Abeokuta, where I I detailed that the @OGSGOfficial will independently build 2,500 affordable units & 10,000 jointly under the Social Housing Scheme of @MBuhari's Economic Sustainability Plan as one of the...
At the event held in Abeokuta in commemoration of the 2020 World Teachers Day, I felicitated all teachers in Ogun State, especially through the NUT, Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools & other Unions & Associations who have consistently protected the interest of teachers.
Towards encouraging outstanding service, I also presented on behalf of the Ogun State Government, house and cash awards to three teachers in different categories.
Mrs Mary Adeyemi of St. Paul's School II (Best Teacher, Primary Category) received a N2m cash prize; Mr Odegboka Ayodele (Junior Secondary) received a two-bedroom bungalow in Prince Court Estate; while Mr Adewale Abayomi (Senior Secondary) received N2.5m.
As Nigerians, we have before us, a better Nigeria that can only be attained by our collective allegiance, hope, and readiness to harness the numerous human and material resources with which the Creator has blessed us.
I expressed this stance earlier today, when I joined other Christian faithful for the Special Church Service at the Cathedral Church of St. Peters, Ake marking the 60th National Day Celebration.
While we celebrate our bright future this Diamond Jubilee, we must reflect on our past as a united Nation that has stayed strong in the face of her economic and security challenges, especially as we emerge from the COVID-19 scourge.
At the State Executive Council Meeting yesterday, we approved construction of three roads in the State. These are the 4.65km Akute-Denro-Ishasi and 2.3km Olusegun Osoba Twiney roads in Ogun Central. The third is the 2.3km 6-lane Molipa Expressway in Ogun East.
Since the goal is to ensure safe road travel for the people, construction works will begin immediately and subsequently extend to other roads in need of similar attention.
I plead with you, the good people of Ogun State, especially residents of these areas as well as those we are currently working on such as the Panseke-Adigbe Road, to bear with us, considering the difficulties occasioned by the rainy season. #BuildingOurFutureTogether #ISEYA
Today, schools resumed physical classes across Ogun State, as the economy recovers from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We as a Government are doing everything right, including workers' welfare, to return Ogun State to its enviable place of economic prosperity.
For the collective wellness of our children, I urge school managements to remain committed to the hygiene measures and facilities put in place in preparation for the reopening.
I congratulate all pupils and students returning to class today, and wish them a safe academic year. #BuildingOurFutureTogether #ISEYA
As part of plans to make potable water available to our people, we have released counterpart funds for the rehabilitation & construction of 51 water facilities in 13 locations across Ogun West Senatorial District under the Programme for Expanded Water Supply Sanitation & Hygiene.
30 million Naira has been released for the implementation of the Programme in Yewa North LGA, while 48 million Naira out of the total 96 million has been approved for the upgrading of solar-powered boreholes in 36 locations across Ado-Odo/Ota LGA.
The pilot phase of the project will be administered by the Rural Water and Sanitation Agency, RUWATSAN through a Direct Labour-Assisted Approach, so that as we deliver water, the employable local population will benefit simultaneously.
77 Hearty Cheers to His Royal Majesty, Oba (Dr) Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo, CFR (Okukenu IV), the Alake and Paramount Ruler of Egbaland
On behalf of the Government and good People of Ogun State, I felicitate with you on the occasion of your 77th birthday celebration today, Monday, 14th September, 2020.
Kabiyesi, you are a foremost monarch in Ogun State and Nigeria in general, whose influence, words of wisdom, prayers and interventions have helped in shaping the Nation's development and the laudable achievements of our Administration.
Bringing a definite stop to the global vices of child abuse and human trafficking is an essential role of government, to ensure security of lives for collective development.
I was ably represented by @NoimotOyedele at today's inauguration of the State Taskforce Team on Human Trafficking, which is part of our efforts to corroborate those of the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, @naptipnigeria at the national level.
This follows what we had earlier done at the state level, including: domestication of our Violence against Persons Prohibition, VAPP Act; empowerment of relevant agencies; & synergy with Civil Society Groups & other stakeholders on continuous...
The Contract/Project Review Committee submitted their report to me in my Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta office today.
The Committee was set up in July, 2019 to re-evaluate projects awarded 2009-2019 towards identifying significant ones, conformity with due process, and contingency for continuity.
This is along the lines of the continuum ideology guiding our steady and intensified completion and utility-driven conversion of inherited projects that have direct line of benefits to the good people of Ogun State.

We are keen on resuscitating the agricultural sector in Kwara state. To this end, we are ensuring the prompt and effective rehabilitation of neglected Cocoa plantations and farms existing in the State.
We have raised 50,000 hybrid Cocoa seedlings, which will be distributed to farmers at affordable prices once they mature in 18 months. This will create jobs for our youths and ensure our farmers are participators in the lucrative cocoa value chain.
We will also establish a cocoa nursery in the state to serve as the genuine source of planting materials for farmers while we make plans for the retraining of cocoa farmers on good agricultural practices through the Farmers Field School and Farmers Business School respectively.
Today, I assented to the 2020 appropriation bill that has been designed to truly rebuild our state by driving growth, uplifting our people out of poverty, and addressing infrastructural deficit.
We devoted over 55% of our budget to capital expenditure, the highest so far in the history of our state. This will enhance the much-needed infrastructural development across all sectors in the state.
We have also made provisions in the 2020 budget for the poorest of the poor in our society. We intend to commence the School Feeding Programme this year and so many other programmes that will directly benefit the people. This is indeed a budget for the people of Kwara State.
The vast land bordering the Civil Service Clinic, Ilorin, was originally meant for another Govt Secretariat building and parking space for the Clinic but, for years,it was misappropriated and given to Asa Investment Ltd with no evidence of payment.
Alhamdulilah!We‘ve recovered it
Alhamdulilah!We‘ve recovered it
Going forward, we have made plans in our 2020 budget to build the much-needed secretariat on the recovered land and save government the money that is currently being spent on rented apartments that hundreds of civil servants have been made to work from.
