In a bid to foster grassroots development in Osun State, the Presidency has urged Governor Ademola Adeleke to compile a list of abandoned Federal Government projects across the state to expedite their completion.
The call came during a town hall meeting held on Monday with various stakeholders, including residents, labor leaders, traders, market women, farmers, and journalists.
The Presidency emphasized that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is dedicated to addressing the people’s needs, making the meeting an important step for the state’s development.
Khadijat Kareem, the Personal Assistant to the President on Constituency Affairs, noted: “We recognize the unique challenges facing Osun State, from infrastructure to economic empowerment. We are committed to addressing these issues and making a tangible impact. Please provide us with information on any abandoned federal projects in your area. On my next visit to Osun, I will bring a massive empowerment program.”
Governor Ademola Adeleke, in his remarks, reiterated the state’s commitment to federal-state collaboration and expressed hope for the completion of abandoned federal roads and other projects in Osun.
He confirmed that a list of such projects would be submitted soon.
During the meeting, Comrade Adeshina Abubarkar, Chairman of the Osun State NUJ Correspondents’ Chapel, urged the Federal Government to revisit the abandoned Machine Tool Factory and Steel Rolling project in the state.
He also called for a revival of initiatives such as the Trader Money program to support market women across the country.
