His Excellency Engr. OluSeyi
Abiodun Makinde D.Sc, FNSE
the Executive Governor of Oyo State
at the Commissioning of the Construction
of the 65m General Gas Flyover and the
Dualisation of the 7.2 Km
Idi Ape-Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo
Barracks Road, Ibadan
on Thursday, September 15, 2022.
But when it is time to do what is right for the progress of our
people, we should be able to come together and get it done.
We welcome you to Oyo State. We know you are one of us. We
can rightly call you an Ibadan boy since you were born here and
grew up here. So, welcome home.
When we came into government, we promised you, the good
people of Oyo State that every road project we embark on
would target our economy.
Our slogan has always been
‘where road goes,
development follows’.
Let me start by appreciating my brother,
the Executive Governor of Ekiti State, His
Excellency, Dr Kayode Fayemi, for joining
us today as we commission the 65m General
Gas Flyover and the dualisation of the 7.2 Km
Idi Ape-Basorun-Akobo-Odogbo Barracks
Road.
Your presence here communicates a message
to those who think that politics is a do-or-die
affair and who think that collaboration across
party lines for development is not possible.
Yes, our great party, the Peoples Democratic
Party and the All Progressives Congress, have
different philosophies.
