A serving member of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, Hon. Adeoye Aribasoye, has disclosed that the incoming administration of Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji (BAO) would be Peoples friendly like outgoing government in the state.
The outspoken lawmaker, in a statement in Ado Ekiti, Aribasoye urged the public to discountenance the widespread hatred being spread by the opposition that the APC has nothing to offer Ekiti
Aribasoye, who is representing Ikole constitiency 2 in the House of Assembly, said the current spate of development in the state under Fayemi gives a sigh of hope and inkling that the future will be greater.
The Human Rights Lawyer stated that the fact that Oyebanji and the leadership of the All Progressives Congress deemed it fit to stage a thank you tour to all the councils to appreciate the people for their overwhelming votes during the June 18 poll, was suffice to project that the incoming governor will be humble with power.
Oyebanji is presently leading the leadership of the party across the Local Governments and Local council Development Areas on a thank -you tour over his victory in the just concluded gubernatorial poll.
According to him ,Oyebanji would allow Ekiti populace to take ownership of government and act more as co-pilots in service delivery when assume office.
The Lawmaker also assured the populace that the governor-elect would create a lever through which he could fraternise with both the elites and the grassroots for radical development of the state.
“Before embarking on this tour, Hon Biodun Oyebanji had earlier met with high echelons of Ekiti elite like Chief Afe Babalola, Chief Wole Olanipekun, Mr. Julius Adelusi Adeluyi, Mr. Dele Adesina , Mr. Femi Falana, Chief Deji Fasuan and many others to confer with them.
“As an obeisance to the traditional institution, he also met with the Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adeyemi Adejugbe and some selected monarchs.
“But as someone who believes that every Ekiti man deserves respect, he scheduled a thank- you tour to meet with all the strata of the society like our traditional rulers,Okada riders, civil servants , driver unions, farmers and other pivotal sections at the grassroots.
“This gives a good prognosis that Oyebanji will treat all Ekiti residents with respect . It underscores that the kind of personality the APC is bringing on board to superintend over the state for the next four years won’t be power drunk.
“It further showed that we have someone who would believe in continuity of governance in the saddle, because the outgoing governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi did similar thing in 2018 after being elected and he has also laid a solid legacy that will serve as a springboard for the development plans of the incoming governor.
“Ekiti people should be rest assured that they have nothing to fear under Oyebanji. What his government is bringing on board is outstanding performance, respect for all citizens, and establishment of robust inter-personal , inter- agency and inter-union relationships, to catapult Ekiti to an enviable height in all facets”.
