Non Yoruba Indigenes living in Ogun State under the umbrella of Non Yoruba Indigenes Empowerment Initiative(NYIEI), has commended Governor Ibikunle Amosun for the formal take off of the Ogun State Polytechnic, located in Ipokia,Ogun West Senatorial District.

Speaking at the venue of the ground breaking ceremony of the institution ,the Founder/Chairman of the organization, Chief Dr Chris Orie said that the commissioning is in furtherance of Governor Amosun`s land mark achievement in education. Recall that Ogun State students came first nationwide in the recently released National Examination Council (NECO), the second time in three years.

According to him, by locating the institution in Ipokia, Ogun West Senatorial Zone, the governor has shown fairness in the distribution of infrastructure and other amenities in the state. He said in some other states in the federation, what the governors do is, instead of building new structures in zones outside their own, they would be revoking existing ones there and bringing them to their own zone. According to him, it is statesmen like Amosun that Nigeria needs to move forward.

He said that apart from delivering on education ,the governor is also delivering in the other sectors like road and housing. According to him, the Ogun Polytechnic would not only provide empowerment and employment, it would also increase the value of land in the area. He said that today Ogun State as a whole is wearing a new look as a result of uniform development which the governor is bringing state.

"We the Non Yoruba Indigenes Empowerment Initiative is appreciating the action governor of Ogun State Ibikunle Amosun for the giant stride he has made with regard to education. Today, Ogun State is the number one in education in the country because our children are schooling under very conducive environment. Most of the schools in the state have been renovated or giving a face-lift.

Another thing that we highly appreciate the governor is his policy of even development of the state. In some states of the federation, some governors concentrate on the development of their own senatorial zone. They see governorship as an opportunity for their senatorial zones to cut their own pound of flesh. But here in Ogun the governor has being very fair in the distribution of resources and structures among the three senatorial zones. That is even why he is insisting that governorship should rotate to Ogun West senatorial zone in 2019”
