The Oluwo of Iwoland, HIM Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has described the collaboration between the duo of Governor Gboyega Oyetola and Engr. Seyi Makinde of Osun and Oyo States respectively on infrastructural growths as the highest ever.
Receiving the Commissioners for Works in the two states, Engr. Remi Omowaiye and Prof. Dahud Sangodoyin, in his palace today, Oluwo described the extension of the infrastructural partnership to Ibadan-Iwo-Osogbo road as monumental, and a great joy, saying the duo governors are pride of Yorubaland.
Oluwo expressed optimism on the rapid growth of Iwoland, noting Iwo and her people will forever be grateful to the two public servants.
He eulogized Governor Gboyega and Governor Makinde for their unusual cooperation, partnership and unity capable of engineering a new hope for the two states.
Oba Akanbi stated the two governors have in then true blood of Oduduwa and template for Yoruba political future. He said they did the same when Ladoke Akintola University saga was amicably resolved.
A statement released by Oluwo through his press secretary, Alli Ibraheem, further corroborated the partnership reads “The two governors, Gboyega Oyetola and Engr. Seyi Makinde moved from Ladoke Akintola University settlement to construction of Osogbo-Iwo-Ibadan road. They have displayed high level of political maturity and to me, this is the highest level of collaboration in the history of Nigeria. They have set a template for the greatness of Yorubaland. I urge other leaders to see beyond political differences and affiliation to interest the entire Yorubaland”
“I see Oduduwa blood in the two Governors. The road, after completion will not only expose Iwo but will also promote the economic and commerical activities of the two states”
“Iwo is the centre of South Western States. As at 1931, Iwo was the 5th largest city but because the road network is bad, the reference decreased. Fortunately, God is smiling on us through the two governors”
” The road is at the centre of the South Western States but in a deplorable condition. Reconstructing the road will positively strengthen Nigeria’s economy and promote inter-states transportation”
“Ibadan-Iwo-Osogbo is the only straight road that connects all the states in the South Western States connecting the zone with other other zones”
“Sometimes in 2018, I rehabilitated some dilapidated sections of the road to complement the Governor of Osun State. These two men are great and deserve our commendation, encouragement and promotion “
