Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has expressed gratitude to Oyo people for the privilege afforded him to serve them in the last 43 months, which he described as a testament of his commitment to serve the people.

In his New Year message to the people of the state, yesterday, the governor noted that his administration did not take the support given to it for granted.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, indicated that the governor equally maintained that his administration was able to prove to the people that it is possible to focus on infrastructural development, while meeting other obligations to the people.

Makinde, who expressed confidence that he would be re-elected in March, added that his administration has been able to place the state on the path of sustainable development.

He recounted some of the successes recorded by his government in the different sectors, including infrastructure development, health, education, security and economic expansion.

“My good people of Oyo State, as the end of my first tenure as your governor draws close, I must express my deepest gratitude to you for this privilege to serve you. I do not take for granted the support you have given our administration through the years.

“Without your mandate and support, we would not have succeeded in placing our dear state on the path to sustainable development. All the work we did under the Roadmap to Accelerated Development in Oyo 2019-2023 was leading up to this moment,” he stated.

According to the statement, Makinde’s administration removed the embargo placed by its predecessor on the promotion of civil servants, and promoted civil servants.

“We also completed the recruitment and training of 500 additional Amotekun Corps to deter crime and maintain public order in our state.
“We have shown empathy in decision-making. Our policies have always been ‘people first’ because you, the good people of Oyo, are the most important stakeholders in governance. We may not always get it right, but we have always accepted our errors and made amends where possible.

“We have listened to and learnt from you, so we confidently return to you and ask for a second term. We know that come March 11, 2023, you will vote for Omituntun 2.0. We look forward to an exciting year ahead!”
