The Executive Chairman of Osogbo Local Government, Hon. Saheed M Onibonokuta has promised to be transparent and provide quality leadership to the people.
Speaking to journalists after resuming office on Wednesday, Hon. Onibonokuta directed staff of the council area to return to their duty posts with immediate effect.
He stated that consultations are ongoing with all Divisional Police Officers and other security agencies in Osogbo Local Government to ensure the security of lives and property.
The Chairman also pledged an open door policy, reiterating his commitment to the development of the council area.
His words, "I am pleased to report to our people that we have fully resumed work today, Wednesday February 19, 2025. I am holding a meeting with heads of security agencies in Osogbo LGA immediately as we swing into action. I have also instructed my councillors to embark on a needs assessment of their various wards to account for the areas where we will need to intervene urgently.
"I am aware that staff of the local government are still afraid to resume work because of the political situation. I am thereby using this medium to direct them to resume work IMMEDIATELY. We have a lot to do in the next few weeks so all of us must report to our duty posts.
"Let me also assure our people that we will utilise all channels of feedback to get back to our people so that they will be aware of our policies and programmes.
"I also want to charge electoral officers in the local government to avoid being used to perpetuate illegality on Saturday. The judgement of the Court of Appeal is clear enough to have returned us to office. Therefore, any other action against the dictate of the judgement is gross illegality.
"We are committed to good governance and we pledge to serve our people within all of the resources available to us.
"I cannot but thank the leadership of our party starting from His Excellency Adegboyega Oyetola CON, the Honourable Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, APC National Secretary Senator (Dr) Ajibola Basiru, APC State Chairman, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, Engr. AbdulRahman Olalekan Badmus, Chairman Elders Council Osogbo Alhaji Raheem Adegboye Adebayo (Fefe) , our leaders, elders and all members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) throughout the state especially in Osogbo Local Government. Together, let's build the Osogbo of our dreams. Osogbo a gbe wa, o," Hon. Saheed M Onibonokuta stressed further.
