Osun APC Leader Scores Adeleke High on lnfrastructural Development

By Tunde Eso

A prominent leader in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun State, Alhaji Moshood Adeoti, has adjudged the performance of Governor Ademola Adeleke in the last six months as impressive, noting that the governor has given so much attention to infrastructural development in the state since coming into office.

Adeoti who is a former Secretary to the State Government, acknowledged Governor Adeleke's impactful leadership in the state on Tuesday while speaking at an inauguration dinner in Abuja, saying there is nothing wrong in appreciating a leader who is doing well for the people.

The dinner was part of the series of events put up to mark the inauguration of Representatives Bamidele Salam, Mudashiru Lukman and Lanre Oladebo, into the 10th National Assembly.

Adeoti noted that though he shared a different party with Governor Adeleke, however, declared that that would not stop him from recognising the good works he is doing for the state.

"If we are looking at each other, anyone doing well, it is right for us to appreciate him," the top APC chieftain who spoke in Yoruba language noted, adding that "God will continue to empower him to do more."

"Help me tell him (Governor Adeleke) that he is doing well at this very moment. Help me to tell him that he is doing well at the moment," he echoed to the cheers of Imole from the people in the hall.

The APC chieftain who said he can be quoted anywhere, referenced a road in his hometown of Iwo that last received any government attention until recently when Governor Adeleke reconstructed it. 

"There is a road in Iwo, it was last constructed 40 years ago and it was in bad state but within 100 days in office, he (Governor Adeleke) reconstructed it and now in good use now. This is some of the things we are talking about. There is nothing spectacular anywhere, anyone in office is the one that does it. God will continue to help him (Governor Adeleke) to do more," he said.
