At the event held in Abeokuta in commemoration of the 2020 World Teachers Day, I felicitated all teachers in Ogun State, especially through the NUT, Academic Staff Union of Secondary Schools & other Unions & Associations who have consistently protected the interest of teachers. ImageImageImageImage
Towards encouraging outstanding service, I also presented on behalf of the Ogun State Government, house and cash awards to three teachers in different categories. ImageImageImageImage
Mrs Mary Adeyemi of St. Paul's School II (Best Teacher, Primary Category) received a N2m cash prize; Mr Odegboka Ayodele (Junior Secondary) received a two-bedroom bungalow in Prince Court Estate; while Mr Adewale Abayomi (Senior Secondary) received N2.5m. ImageImageImageImage
As the son of a teacher myself, I am aware of the great responsibilities that come with being a teacher or being related to one. So I am glad that today provides us the opportunity to consider issues affecting our teachers, especially as they continue teaching in this COVID-19era ImageImageImageImage
The fortunate irony here is that the need to sustain the teaching-learning process since our economy got affected in Q1 2020 has brought remarkable reforms to teacher welfare and the Education sector, complementing our planned efforts.
Ogun State was not caught unawares. Since May 2019, we have:

A. Approved the 2016, 2017 promotion backlog of over 10,000 teachers;

B. Renovated school infrastructure under the Yellow Roof Project;

C. Advanced the recruitment process of 1,655 graduate teachers;
D. Approved career elongation for primary school teachers to GL15;

E. Sworn Principals-General and Headmasters-General into office;

F. Digitised the teaching learning process, with the introduction of ICT facilities and televised classes.
As we celebrate our teachers today, I call on them to kindly inculcate in the children positive values, and protect their rights, most professionally.

Happy Teachers Day!

We have appointed the winner of the @BBNaija Lockdown, @itsLaycon Youth Ambassador of Ogun State in addition to house and cash gifts.

I relayed this development today, when I played host to Olamilekan Moshood Agbelesebioba AKA Laycon in my Oke-Mosan office in Abeokuta. ImageImageImageImage
The appointment and gifts are a celebration of Laycon's good character, intellect and virtues which were proven to the whole world on live TV as better choices than vices. ImageImageImageImage
A proud son of Ogun State, Laycon displayed the essence of focus in the face of temptations and provocations. This is the true Ogun State spirit, and it indeed confirms that this earned him his academic achievement at the University of Lagos.

Today, we have more than enough reasons to jubilate and reflect on our joint growth in Ogun State, as the world habitat is celebrated alongside teachers all over the world. Our habitats are like our teachers: they accommodate our inadequacies as we get better. ImageImageImageImage
This is why we have prioritised housing infrastructure and will be delivering 12,500 housing units before year 2023. ImageImageImageImage

As Nigerians, we have before us, a better Nigeria that can only be attained by our collective allegiance, hope, and readiness to harness the numerous human and material resources with which the Creator has blessed us. ImageImageImageImage
I expressed this stance earlier today, when I joined other Christian faithful for the Special Church Service at the Cathedral Church of St. Peters, Ake marking the 60th National Day Celebration. ImageImageImageImage
While we celebrate our bright future this Diamond Jubilee, we must reflect on our past as a united Nation that has stayed strong in the face of her economic and security challenges, especially as we emerge from the COVID-19 scourge. ImageImageImageImage

As part of plans to make potable water available to our people, we have released counterpart funds for the rehabilitation & construction of 51 water facilities in 13 locations across Ogun West Senatorial District under the Programme for Expanded Water Supply Sanitation & Hygiene. Image
30 million Naira has been released for the implementation of the Programme in Yewa North LGA, while 48 million Naira out of the total 96 million has been approved for the upgrading of solar-powered boreholes in 36 locations across Ado-Odo/Ota LGA.
The pilot phase of the project will be administered by the Rural Water and Sanitation Agency, RUWATSAN through a Direct Labour-Assisted Approach, so that as we deliver water, the employable local population will benefit simultaneously.
