Legacy in Motion: A Mandate Renewed

As we celebrate another year in office, our hearts are full of gratitude, reflection, and renewed commitment.

Six years ago, we set out to build a State where growth is intentional, leadership is data-led, and progress is not just seen but felt. We set out to build a legacy. And legacy, as we know, isn’t built in a day. It is built daily – with every decision made, every road constructed, every young mind empowered.

Today, thanks to your support, encouragement, and partnership, we have:

      • Raised internally generated revenue by over 295%

      • Improved infrastructure in every zone of the State

      • Invested in agriculture, youth employment, and public health

      • Managed crises without losing the public trust

    These milestones are not just government achievements — they are a collective testimony to what happens when a people believe in purpose-driven leadership.

    And so, for me, 29 May is a reminder that the mandate belongs to the people, and that governance must always be about impact, not just intention.

    This year, we chose to mark the day quietly, but with renewed introspection.

    How can we serve you better?
    Where can we deepen governance impact?
    What legacy are we still building?

    Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing stories of this journey through the lens of real people, real projects, and real progress; inspiring real hope.

    I invite you to follow the updates on social media, join the conversation, and keep us accountable as we continue this journey together.

    As citizens, partners, investors, and young dreamers, your role in shaping the future of Oyo State is vital. The future demands even more innovation, inclusiveness, and insight.

    We are ready to keep building. And with you, we can continue moving forward purposefully, boldly, and with legacy in mind.

    Talk to you again Soon
