Akeredolu said: “I feel so convenient, I can see love when we all sit down as southwest Governors to discuss our development. You have done greatly in this State. I mean greatly for that matter, and I wonder why a number of things happened, very strange things. You served, you sacrificed, and this will still happen. I know we are sometimes dealing with people that are not predictable.
“All the roads, hospitals and lots more. I want to appreciate you, you have proved that with limited resources, you still cared for your people. For those close to this State, you have done wonderfully well. I can beat my chest on that.
“Nobody can beat your record. As we are struggling to get this mandate back, know that the record you have gotten, nobody can beat it.
“We know the number of roads you have done, Primary Healthcare Centres, security, you have done all, they are uncountable. Well, Just congratulate yourself, you have done well.
“You have not only done well here, you are a reliable ally in our midst as Governors. You are quiet and when you take your decision, rely on Gboyega, he is very supportive.
“Osun State cannot forget you forever. By the grace of God, we will come back. God knows how he works. By the grace of God, we will come back to govern this State for a second term.”
In his short remarks, Governor Oyetola who appreciated Akeredolu for accepting the request to inaugurate the symbolic flyover in the State attributed the success of the project to the innovative approach to governance adopted by his administration. He said despite the current socio-economic realities, his government was not deterred in providing the best for the people of the state in terms of infrastructure development.
Oyetola thanked Osun people for their support and understanding adding that he would continue to prioritize people’s welfare policy that will make life meaningful for all and sundry.
