As I sat across from Senator Adeleke, I
couldn't help but notice his humble
and approachable demeanor. He was passionate about
promoting financial prudence and demonstrated
a genuine commitment to the well-being of his constituents. He viewed himself as a beacon of hope for the people
of Osun state who have suffered for far too long. During
our meeting, his chef Jacob served us
an absolutely delicious meal of spaghetti with a special
goat meat sauce and spicy fish. It was easily one of the best meals I've ever had. As we enjoyed our food, the senator shared
stories about his
efforts to reduce wasteful government spending and redirect those resources towards more pressing needs. Also, at the meeting, was some of his economic advisers including – Sir. Adekunle Adekpoju,
His vision for a free trade zone in the heart of Oshogbo, particularly impressed me, which he believes will pave the way for economic expansion across various sectors. I couldn't help but notice the impressive list of numerous road projects, healthcare projects and construction projects that are currently ongoing, even though he has only spent 151 days. Governor Adeleke's commitment to his people was clear in every word he spoke, he places great value on quality of workers, preferring to employ skilled indigenes of Osun, believing that great skills can be found beneath dust. It's no wonder that the people of Osun are so attached to him because they have seen that he is the true ‘Imole ti de’ - the light that shines out of the darkness.
Sujimoto prides itself on excellence,
integrity and innovation, and that’s why I was
thrilled by Sen. Adeleke’s passion, empathy and dedication to bringing
development to Osun State.
During our meeting,
he also shared with us his encounter
with numerous organizations including USA that are
already bringing free medical care for his people, and though a lot of people were
skeptical to take some medical tests like HIV, he stood in willingly, ready to also take those tests to show that
they were safe and necessary. In his words “people blame things on their village people, when in reality it
is their ignorance that is preventing them from forging
ahead, this is why education is important and a part of my priority”.
The governor shared with us his plans to create
more me dical opportunities for his people, including efforts to improve care for
blind patients, prostate cancer patients, and
HIV patients and many more.
Almost 500 billion naira in debt was what the
governor met, but he took the initiative to create committees
to help cover loopholes and create financial
engineering that
would assist in projects funding and also pay salaries
and pensions in arrears, all in a bid to reduce the poverty level of the state.
He also made sure asset audit was carried out
on all prope rties in Lagos, Abuja and nationally, putting them together to
understand the assets Osun state has
and how it can be used to generate
more revenue.
According to one of the economic adviser’s present, Osun state does not need to depend on federal allocation, because the state is seating on a Gold mine and if well exploited, the state can generate billions monthly. His plan to set up a private -public partnership, a reliable and competent partnership that can take advantage of the natural resources for the benefit of all, is a testament to his vision for a more prosperous future that would help elevate the state's economy to new heights.
Under Governor Adeleke's leadership, we expect
Osun State to become a hub for innovation
and development, as his masterplan will attract several investors to the state, creating more jobs and
entrepreneurial opportunities for the people of Osun State. His administration also has a grand
plan to make significant strides in
the agricultural sector,
with their hope to make Osun State one of the leading
producers of cocoa and rice in the nearest future.
This is where
we at Sujimoto Group come in, we are not
just elevating the luxury
and affordable housing
sector but also, we plan to set up a 1
Million hectares rice farm before
2023, starting from Osun state. For the vision of SujiRice, we believe that “we Rice by Lifting our Nation”.
Governor Adeleke is creating a state
that would be self-sufficient and can compete with any other state across Nigeria. He
believes that by working with the private sector, Osun State can achieve its true potential.
The Dancing Senator was often underestimated, but beyond his moves lies a visionary leader with an unwavering commitment to transforming the state into a realm of unprecedented prosperity. I personally believe that he has what it takes to make this happen. Congratulations once more to the Executive Governor of Osun State, Senator Adeleke, who has rightfully regained his mandate to govern the people of Osun State in diligence. On this special occasion of his birthday, I would also like to give a shout-out to the industrial maestro and exemplary leader who will spare no effort in ensuring the success of his people. Sujimoto celebrates you!
