Ondo Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has replied the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) that he remained in charge of affairs of the State.
Governor Akeredolu, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, urged the PDP to focus on tangible progress being made in the state rather than sensationalised his whereabout.
He stated that his location has not hindered any form of development in the state.
Governor Akeredolu reminded the PDP that he showed his commitment to the state’s development irrespective of his location by signing the Local Council Development Area (LCDA) bill into Law.
According to him, “This is a progressive step towards the development of the state, further reinforcing the fact that the government is operational and effectively functioning.
“In the same vein, the various state ministries are delivering efficiently on their mandates. Specifically, the Ministry of the Budget and Economic Planning recently commenced a series of town hall meetings in preparation for the 2024 budget, demonstrating the government’s dedication to transparent and inclusive governance.
“Just few weeks ago, the Governor instructed the Ministry of Infrastructure, Lands & Housing to commence the permanent rehabilitation of the Akure-Owena-Ondo Road. This action was taken to prevent unnecessary hardship and loss of lives on the federal highways located within Ondo State territory.
“To alleviate the impact of fuel subsidy removal, the state government, through the palliative committee led by the Commissioner for Finance, Wale Akinterinwa, is actively distributing palliatives to the state’s residents. Moreover, the state’s free school shuttle buses have resumed operations, providing transportation for children to school. Civil servants are also benefiting from special transportation arrangements to and from work.
“Significant progress is being made in the construction of the ultra-modern University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital in Akure. Furthermore, the government ensures the prompt payment of workers’ salaries as and when due.”
