Gov. Seyi Makinde of Oyo State says his government is planning to launch a 20-year development agenda to save the state from an underwhelming performance.

Makinde made this known on Sunday in Ibadan while speaking at the closing of a two-day retreat for members of the State Executive Council and his senior aides.

He said that the launch of the development agenda would set a high bar for his administration’s developmental objectives.

”We have been underachieving for many years; administrations had come and gone. Yes, they did their best, but still, we have to set a high bar for ourselves.

”Within the shortest possible time, we have to put in place a strategic development plan for the state.

”Administrations had come and gone, but most of them operated on ad-hoc bases. We will put in place a 15 to 20-year development plan for Oyo State, and we will be bullish about our development plans.

”Of course, we are aware that our mandate, for now, is for four years. What we want to do now is to put up a plan or vision so that successive administrations will not need to go back to do the work again.

”We will do the work. Who knows whether the leadership of the next administration is here with us? So we should not take anything for granted,” he said.
