2018 Democracy Day Celebration: Ogun set to unveil over 50 new projects

Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun

The Senator Ibikunle Amosun administration in Ogun State on Friday announced that it would unveil over 50 new projects to mark this year’s Democracy Day, which coincides with the 3rd anniversary of the 2nd term of the governor.

The announcement was made via a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Barr. Taiwo Adeoluwa.

He said: “It would be recalled that last year, the celebration was marked with an inspection tour of projects across the state, which was rounded off with the commissioning of the MITROS Residences, at the GRA, Ibara, in Abeokuta.

“In keeping with our well known “Ogun Standard”, the State Government plans to commemorate this year’s anniversary with the commissioning of some of the over 50 new projects, spread across the three geo-political zones.

“However, in deference to our Islamic faithful, who are currently observing Ramadan fast across the country, the Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, has directed that the commissioning of projects earlier scheduled to take place on Tuesday, 29th May, 2018 (Democracy Day), be postponed, till the last week in June, when the Ramadan fast would have been over.

“We use this special occasion to once again appreciate Ogun stakeholders, for their tremendous support and prayers over the years, which have been largely responsible for the massive turnaround of the fortunes of the state.

“As we journey on and continue to work tirelessly to further fulfil our mandate to “Rebuild the state”, we urge you not to relent as Ogun remains “work in progress”.”
