Oyetola orders LGs in Osun to forward lists of deplorable roads for repair

He charged the local governments’ bosses to key into the policies and programmes of his administration and reflect that in their conduct and activities, saying road projects recommended by the local governments for repairs would be supervised by the state government to ensure effective and efficient service delivery.
He said the resolve to intervene in addressing bad roads at the local government level was aimed at extending the dividends of democracy to the grassroots as part of his administration cardinal points to bring succour to all particularly people at the localities.
Oyetola, however, tasked the local government chairmen to ensure electoral victory for the All Progressives Congress (APC) in next years’ general election, contending that such development remains the only way to sustain progressive people in government at the state and national levels.
He stated, “as you know, a government is not totally formed without the legislature, thus it has become a task on every one of us to work very hard towards ensuring victory for all our candidates in the next general elections.”
