Diaspora groups have described Governor Ademola Adeleke’s mining reforms and other good governance initiatives as impressive and unprecedented since the creation of Osun State.
A statement by his spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, in Osogbo, stated that Adeleke, who was in transit to Nigeria in the United Kingdom after attending a livestock conference in Northern France, hosted several leaders and Osun indigenes in London.
The statement said that many diaspora groups at the event listed several sectors for which the governor has placed the state on a global map of good governance.
“A group called Osun UK Professionals led by Bimbo Adekemi expressed surprise at the fast pace at which the Governor is pursuing infrastructure upgrades across the state during a tight economic situation across Nigeria.
“The group noted that pursuing an infra upgrade is an intelligent way of jumpstarting the local economy and easing the environment by doing business to attract investment into the state.
“Another group, Osun UK Royal Group, led by Timileyin Oluyemi Ajayi from Ijesaland, said Governor Adeleke has raised the hope of many Osun indigenes in Europe by delivering good programmes in the digital economy, health, education, agriculture, climate change, and infrastructure.
While receiving the groups in London, Governor Adeleke expressed delight at the positive feedback from the diaspora community, assuring that his administration is poised to do more to serve the people.
