As part of his sincere and avowed resolve to stay connected with the people of Ibarapa East State Constituency and also appreciate them for trusting him with their mandate, the Speaker Oyo State House of Assembly, Hon Adebo Ogundoyin has embarked on a tour of all the ten wards in his constituency.
The three day visit which took Hon Ogundoyin to villages, communities and areas in Ibarapa East State Constituency afforded him the opportunity of interacting with the people on what they desire and expect from him as their representative and above all as the Speaker of the 9th Oyo State House of Assembly.
The Speaker who was accompanied on the tour by leaders and prominent members of the PDP in the constituency said he owed his political attainment so far and his emergence as the Speaker to God and the people for the confidence reposed in him and thanked them for their prayers, support and demonstration of love at all times.
“We decided to come and say thank you for your relentless support during and after the elections and our coming is also to enable you have a say on how you want us to represent you so that our programmes and policies can be tailored along and according to your needs and aspirations ” The Speaker noted.
“It was also in fulfilment of our electoral promise of ensuring quality representation and also promoting all inclusive and participatory democracy in a bid to advance the course of our people and ultimately contribute to good governance in our state” Hon Ogundoyin added
He assured that any promise made during the electioneering especially in empowering the youth, women and other categories of the constituents will be fulfilled.
The Speaker therefore urged the people to be patient with him promising not to let them down while equally appealing to them to continue to support the Govt of Engr Seyi Makinde in his quest to transform the state socially, educationally and economically
In their reactions while welcoming Hon Ogundoyin,the representatives and leaders of the various communities said the lawmaker had started on a good footing noting that once politicians get to power they often neglect and forget people who gave them the mandate
They used the opportunity of the Speaker’s visit to seek the intervention of the Oyo State Govt on the provision of basic amenities in their communities as well as provision of adequate security for residents and their properties
