All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Ogun State Solomon Adeola has promised to revitalise the state road maintenance environmental protection and waste management agencies if elected in February next year.
He also said he would create an agency for New Towns Development and a Ministry of Wealth Creation.
Adeola who is the Senator representing Ogun West spoke during an interactive session with Remo Collectives a social cultural group of upwardly mobile and accomplished Remo indigenes in Remo at the weekend.
Akarigbo and Paramount Ruler of Remoland Oba Babatunde Ajayi attended the session.
Yayi explained that the New Towns Development Authority would be charged with developing new towns with modern infrastructure while old towns and communities would be developed and preserved as historical legacies.
He said the Ministry of Wealth Creation would continue his empowerment programme for job creation where youths and women would be trained in different skills and subsequently empowered.
While responding to a request for the uplifting of Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital in Sagamu Senator Adeola promised to work in conjunction with Governor Dapo Abiodun to revitalise the flagship health tertiary institution before December.
He said ‘As we speak I am facilitating a 4-Storey Hospital building to be fully equipped at Remo General Hospital and it is at the roofing level now with completion set for December. Similarly 14 similar projects are ongoing across the state.’
He commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for embarking on reforms that are yielding results.
According to him President Tinubu has taken care of macroeconomic challenges with the micro benefits for the people trickling down in the near future.
The APC flag bearer also commended Governor Abiodun for laying solid economic foundations upon which he would build his ITESIWAJU Agenda.
He said: ‘The governor has laid a solid economic foundation for the state in such legacy projects as the International Cargo Airport the dry inland ports in Ijebu and Egba and the coming $7 billion deep seaport.
The foundation places Ogun State in a position to compete favourably with Lagos State in terms of Revenue Generation for economic expansion and growth.
Earlier the Akarigbo requested the APC candidate to steer clear of the state creation issue and focus on creation of new Local Government or Local Development Areas for Remo.
He said that Sagamu can be divided into three or four councils.
In his welcome address the President of the Remo Collectives Akintayo Rabiu represented by his vice president Olumide Onimole stated that the collective invited Yayi to interact with them on his programmes for Ogun State in general and Remoland in particular.
He added that the group wants development for the people of Remoland in Ogun State.
