In a significant move to bolster Osun State's economic and infrastructural landscape, Governor Ademola Adeleke recently undertook pivotal actions aimed at enhancing the state's prosperity and security.
Securing Osun State's Stake in Segilola Gold Project
Governor Adeleke's journey to Abuja culminated in the successful acquisition of Osun State's shareholding certification in the Segilola Mining Company. This achievement follows a mediation facilitated by the Federal Government, addressing longstanding disputes between the state and Thor Explorations Limited, the parent company of Segilola Resources Operating Limited (SROL). The resolution encompasses critical areas such as shareholding rights, tax obligations, environmental concerns, and contested mining territories. The formal handover of the shareholding certificate to Governor Adeleke marks a milestone in ensuring that Osun State benefits equitably from its mineral resources.
Inspection of Ilesa Road Dualization Project
On his return from Abuja, Governor Adeleke made an impromptu visit to Ilesa to assess the progress of the ongoing dualization of the Palace-Brewery-Ilesa/Akure Expressway Junction road. This project, initiated under his administration's infrastructure plan, aims to enhance connectivity and stimulate economic activities in Ijesaland. During the inspection, the Governor commended the contractors and on-site engineers for the quality of work executed thus far and emphasized the importance of adhering to the project timeline to ensure timely completion. The dualization is poised to significantly contribute to the socio-economic development of the region.
Reviewing Amotekun Recruits at NYSC Camp in Ede
Further demonstrating his commitment to the state's security, Governor Adeleke visited the NYSC Camp in Ede to inspect the newly recruited members of the Amotekun Corps, a regional security outfit. He encouraged the recruits to utilize their intimate knowledge of local communities to enhance security operations effectively. The Governor's engagement underscores the administration's dedication to safeguarding lives and property, fostering a secure environment conducive to growth and development.
These initiatives reflect Governor Adeleke's proactive approach to governance, focusing on economic empowerment, infrastructural development, and community security to propel Osun State towards a prosperous future.
