The Gov Ademola Adeleke That I Know- Olusegun Fadairo
My knowledge of distinguished Senator and Governor of Osun state, Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke, was greatly influenced by his family’s antecedents of detribalized social service, entrepreneurship, political sagacity and commitment to humanity.
I make bold to say that the attributes highlighted are generational traits in the Adeleke dynasty beginning from its patriarch, Late Pa Raji Ayoola Adeleke, a second Republic Senator and Balogun of Ede.
It is instructive to note that Pa Ayoola Adeleke passed this legacy to his children who have replicated these potentials in their private and public lives.
From Isiaka Adetunji Adeleke, the first Executive Governor of Osun state and Senator, federal Republic of Nigeria to his younger brother, Ademola Adeleke, who was also a Senator and currently the governor of Osun state, the humanist trait in the family runs deep and it is constantly kept alive.
Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke has within one hundred (100) days in office, positively impacted lives more than his immediate predecessor had done in four years.
His governance style is anchored on inclusiveness, non -discrimination, fairness, accountability and right priority.
Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke is faithfully working in line with his manifesto of making Osun work for All.
The sixth Executive Governor of Osun state has demonstrated his commitment to continuity in government by completing projects abandoned by the APC administration.
These projects range from roads, health care infrastructures, water provision, education, payment of arrears of half salaries, pensions and gratuities among others.
In one hundred days, Governor Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke has created a paradigm shift from an administration that impoverished the people to the one that is lifting them from poverty and prioritizing their welfare and progress.
