Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has pledged to revive and complete the 12-year-old Osun Airport project. This declaration was made at the commencement of the Ibadan Airport’s upgrade to Ladoke Akintola International Airport.
Governor Seyi Makinde described the upgrade project as “economically viable and sustainable.” Adeleke praised Makinde as “a man of vision and a passionate agent of development.”
According to Adeleke’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, “We are pushing ahead with a very ambitious governance agenda. We are building roads, bridges, and flyovers. We are upgrading schools, health centers, and reviving agriculture.”
Adeleke emphasized, “We have turned Osun into a huge construction site. We adopt local content policy to deepen the local economy, create jobs for our people, and spread skills acquisition.”
Drawing inspiration from Governor Makinde, Adeleke stated, “Like Governor Makinde, who is Mr. Actualiser of Oyo State, I am in a hurry to take Osun to an agro-industrial, export-oriented economy.”
