Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has reiterated his commitment to the development of the state with a promise that he would use everything within his reach to make life better for the people of the state.
The Governor who was reacting to the accusation by the All Progressives Congress (APC) that he refused to hold State Executive Council meeting since its inauguration said he and his cabinet members are round the clock to expand delivery of dividend of democracy across the books and crannies of the stats.
Adeleke in a statement signed by his spokesperson Mallam Olawale Rasheed and made available to journalists in Osogbo recalled how his predecessor failed to hold State Executive Council meeting almost a year after the 2018 election.
He said: “Osun state All Progressive Congress is reminded that former Governor Gboyega Oyetola held his maiden state executive council meeting on November 4 , 2019, almost a year after the 2018 governorship election.
“It is therefore a probable loss of memory for the state APC to accuse the current administration of either not holding or not announcing to the public the meetings of the state executive council meeting.
“As much as we are not using the abysmal record of the previous government as a yardstick, we pointed out this obvious deceit and memory loss to further help the public to see the falsity in the badly split state APC and the incorrigibleness of the state party leadership.
“Members of the public are assured that their Governor and his cabinet are working round the clock to expand delivery of democratic dividends and correct the big mess of the recent past.
“The cabinet members are for the past three weeks deepening the state sectoral agenda through rigorous brainstorming sessions with the establishment in preparation for an elaborate and expanded state executive council meeting.
“We advise the APC to read through its years of locust in state governance before spewing further falsehood and misinformation into public space.”
