A mathematician and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo state, Chief Dapo Filani has commended Governor Rotimi Akeredolu for his unwavering commitment to bitumen exploration in the state, calling him Mr Bitumen.

According to him, the governor should be specially commended for the laudable feat, noting that by the time the project begins full operation, thousands of jobs would be created for the people of the state, especially the youth, while the economy would also be greatly improved.
The former chairman of Ondo State Water Corporation lauded the governor for his various giant strides aimed at industrialising the state and make it a cynosure of all eyes


He expressed optimism that with the commendable way the governor is steering the affairs of the state, it would be richer than Lagos State in the next few years.

“Instead of calling him Arakunrin Akeredolu, I will prefer to call him Mr Bitumen because he has been able to ship the equipment in now. He has started putting structures in place. The project will boost employment generation and the economy of the state.

“Also, look at the Seaport at Araromi which is under construction now. There is another project going on in Ore and there is an industrial village there where the governor has invested so much money. I saw a very big generator there with industrial materials. All these show the governor has a good vision.

“By the time the bitumen exploration starts, Ondo State will be richer than Lagos State in the next six years. Bitumen is costlier than oil and to produce bitumen is cheaper than oil. Already the governor has provided a place in Araromi Seaside for the bitumen production. Therefore, there would be more profit for the state. Jobs would be created and our economy will improve greatly”, he said.

The APC chieftain equally gave kudos to Akeredolu for his sterling achievements in the year 2018, particularly in the areas of infrastructure, education, health, job creation, empowerment, workers’ welfare through regular payment of salaries and allowances including seven months salary and pension arrears inherited from the immediate past administration.

“Road projects are ongoing across the state including obscure areas. Look at the dual carriageways going on at the state High Court and Ijoka to Idanre, even in Ehin Okuta in Oke-Aro area, Agagu road and many other projects. Flyover in Ore is part of it and several others like that”, Filani added.

While emphasising that the governor has brought equality to primary school in the state through renovation and building of schools across the 18 Local Government Areas of the state, the APC chieftain described the governor as a silent achiever.

He pointed out that with the various good projects and programmes of the government as contained in the year 2019 budget, unemployment rate would further reduce drastically while the economy of the state would also improve tremendously

Really
Thought they were in the exclusive list.
Honestly, Ondo state is blessed. They can do without federal allocation if given a free hand.

That’s why we should all support a ‘restructured system’ in that thought!

I believe there is no single state that doesn't have something to contribute to the development of this Country. We only focused our attention on oil. Nigeria is so blessed that we can take care of another Country comfortably and still live large. God bless Nigeria

No pictures it didn't happen its a lie Mohamed.
