Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has applauded his Ogun State counterpart, Prince Dapo Abiodun, over his giant strides in road construction and other infrastructure development.
Governor Sule gave the commendation yesterday when he visited Abiodun at the Governor’s Office in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, the state capital.
Describing infrastructure as a catalyst for investments, Sule expressed delight with the good road network that the governor built across the state.
“So many projects like the Agro-Cargo Airport are going on in the state. I know about the various projects that President Muhammadu Buhari came to commission.
“The last time I came here was when Nestle was beginning to build their factory and also the Brewery was also building their site. Today, I have not only seen those industries, I have seen the dualisation of the Sagamu-Abeokuta Road. We zoomed here in 20 minutes.
“That is what a private thinking person will do in order to attract investments as investments will not come without somebody doing something.”
The visiting governor also applauded Abiodun for citing most of the projects at the grassroots, noting that it would help in their socioeconomic development.
He said, “I am even more happy that most of these projects are done at the grassroots as people will be able to benefit, especially in the area of agriculture, health and education.”
On Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), Governor Sule said his state has a lot to learn from Ogun as there are states that are not generating enough revenue to run their affairs.
