The one hundred billion naira infrastructure plan, unveiled by Governor Ademola Adeleke is borne out of his passion for economic growth and development of Osun state
Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on the Bureau of Social Services, Mr Akintunde Bello stated this while featuring on Imole Ayo, a sensitization programme which promotes the activities of governor Ademola Adeleke’s administration on OSBC Radio and Television channels
The weekly Yoruba simulcast programme is put in place by the office of the spokesperson to the Governor to showcase the achievements of the present administration in Osun State
Mr Bello expressed the confidence that, when completed, the projects would turn the State around to an investment destination and address huge infrastructure deficit in the state
Dispelling the rumors being peddled around that the execution of the multi billion naira projects will affect regular payment of workers salaries, the governor’s aide emphasized that, Senator Adeleke prioritizes the welfare of the state workforce and retirees, therefore, the infrastructure plan would not in any way hinder the salaries and allowances of workers and pensioners in the state
According to him, it is the duty of a responsible government to pay the salaries of its workforce as and when due, hence the governor has been living up to the task in this regard
The SSA, Bureau of Social Services reminded contractors handling all ongoing projects across the state and those that will handle the massive multi billion naira projects to do the jobs according to specification to justify the huge investment of the state government in infrastructural development ####
