Akoko Monarchs laud Akeredolu over massive infrastructural development
Monarchs in Akoko South East Local Government Area of Ondo State have lauded Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, for the massive reconstruction of Public Primary Schools in the area and various road projects.
The Monarchs particularly thanked the Governor for rehabilitating the Federal Government owned Owo / Ikare road and rescuing Akoko land from the deplorable state of roads.
The Olupe of Ipe Akoko, Oba Francis Apata who spoke on behalf of other Monarchs during the Thank You Tour of the Governor to the local government, said Akoko North East was especially jealous of the various gaint strides recorded by the Akeredolu’s administration on the construction of roads in Akoko land, particularly the Oke Alabojuto in Ikare – Akoko.
Oba Apata, however, appealed to the Governor to extend the wave of massive infrastructural development to the Epinmi – Ikare Road for the economic development of the local Government. Although a Federal Government road, the Monarch asked the Governor to look into possibility of rehabilitating the road.
Governor Akeredolu who appreciated the people of the Local government for voting for the party in the last state House of Assembly elections, assured the people that his administration will spread development across the state.
He said :” We are here to say thank you. That’s why we started with a praise song. We have thanked the Lord. But, we are here to thank you. What people thought was impossible, was made possible here. I spoke with our people and they listened.
“When Kuti emerged as the candidate of our party for a second term, so many people. came to me and said it was impossible. That was not your arrangement before. That was not your arrangement before.. But I told them, I pleaded that this one can be possible and it will even open way for better things to come. I have come to thank you for electing Kuti.
“Part of the reason we are here is to hear your views . You know how many hours you take to get to Owo before. We have done intervention on that road that has cost us alot. We have heard your demand. We will attend to them. We thank all the people of Akoko South East.”
