President Muhammadu Buhari will be part of history making as Ogun Sate will be celebrating 40 years of creation. The event, agged Operation 40-40′, is to mark legacy projects in the state. Addressing a world press conference Friday at the Press Centre, Oke Mosan, the Secretary to the State Government, Barr. Taiwo Adeoluwa disclosed that the celebration is not for birthday for the state, but to harvest some completed projects across the three Senatorial Districts of the state. Adeoluwa said, “our desire to celebrate the creation of the state is not for birthday. We want to speak less on the birthday, forty is a milestone, but for us in Ogun state,the issue goes beyond 40 years. “We have a huge harvest of completed projects which have been completed for over a year, but we don’t like show off, but to do our thing the way we should be. “But some elders called our attention to the state creation date which is February 3rd and said we should make it a huge celebration. We have over 100 projects across the state and about 60 have been fully completed. We have selected 40 legacy projects to be commissioned by the President to commemorate the anniversary. “Buhari has most kindly agreed to visit and commission some of the projects. He will be in the state between Monday, 1 & Tuesday 2 February, 2016 to commission some of the projects. Though we are working to see if he can commission all, they are scattered all over the state. All other projects will be commissioned by our past Governors and administrators,” Adeoluwa said. According to him, Ogun Central leads the pack with between 14-16 projects followed by Ogun East with 12-14 projects and Ogun West with 12 projects.

godfirstawe: The state is twice the size of Lagos, so it's really hard to tour the whole place, but there are projects in nearly every LG. Shame the govnor has neglected some regions though. From Sango down to Ewekoro, there is no single government presence. Anyways, may God keep empowering the gov. 22 Likes 2 Shares |

DICK4UCKPUSSY: I swear. When I see some people creating 500 pages thread on the same Anambra, Enugu and Imo they can't live while flooding the SW, I just shake my head. Such irony. As beautiful as Abeokuta is, and as super-developed as it is, with every street tarred and perfect, no one in tthe entire SW brags about this let alone Lagos, Kwara, Akure, and some hig brows in IB. I'm happy to be Yoruba. We will definitely continue to grow. 113 Likes 2 Shares |

Two in Abeokuta, also along Lagos-Abeokuta expressway, one at Sagam and the remaining two at Ijebu, passing over Sagam-Benin-Ore-Expressway to link Imota-Ikorodu (Lagos) road. 14 Likes 1 Share |
