Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, commissioned the biggest of the Palms Stores in Nigeria, Palm Store, Ota, on Monday.

Speaking with journalists after the commissioning, Amosun expressed satisfaction at the fact that made in Nigeria products, especially those made in Ogun State, are in the majority on the shelves at the store.

The governor noted that this would further help in boosting the economy of the state, adding that with the opening of the Mall during this festive season, Ogun State residents would be able to buy goods at cheaper rates and enjoy the Yuletide.
