During the programme which is to mark the 100 days in office of the council chairman, Hon Olayanju will commission two projects in his council area, a newly renovated building for the use of Department of State Service, DSS and that of a community viewing centre in Igbeti.
Olayanju, who was sworn in as the elected council chairman on May 24, 2024, few weeks ago announced the commencement of the renovation of the former Oyo SUBEB building to accommodate the Department of State Services (DSS) in the area.
He said his action was aimed at improving infrastructure and enhancing security in the community as well as providing a functional space for the DSS within the local government area.
The Television Viewing Centre, which was renovated and converted to be used as community hall was built by the first executive chairman of Olorunsogo LG under the administration of Hon. Bello Azeez and commissioned by Compol Amen Edore Oyakhire (Psc) on 19th of October 1998, but has been neglected over the years thereby becoming a dilapidated structure.
Olayanju, who is known for his experience and dedication, had earlier handed over to the Police authority a newly constructed building that now serves as the area command headquarters for the Nigeria Police Force in Igbeti.
