A frontline business lawyer and Chief Executive of Bi-Courtney Limited, Dr. Wale Babalakin SAN has promised to support the Osun State Government in its drive to take the state out of the woods.
The Senior Lawyer gave this pledge while hosting the Governor on friday in his country home, at Gbongan, Ayedaade Local Government area of the state.
The Governor appreciated the elder statesman for his numerous contributions to national development and requested his support for the state government as no government can develop the society alone without support from societal stakeholders.
According to a statement from the Spokesperson of the Governor, Olawale Rasheed, he noted that Senator Adeleke equally briefed the frontline entrepreneur on his triple-focussed agenda of soft, hard and stomach infrastructure and the successes recorded.
According to him, he said the Governor narrated the underpinning principles of his leadership to include local content in procurement, contracting, and workforce alongside financial transparency and open government.
“We call on the Osun elite to join me in this task of rebuilding the state economy first through infrastructure upgrade, agro-industrial development, and restoration of workers’ dignity. We are open to ideas to complement our resolute determination to take Osun to greater heights”, the Governor told a small circle of top leaders, including the Gbongan monarch, the revered Olufi, Oba Adetoyese Babayemi.
In his remarks, the Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Dr. Babalakin, who conducted the Governor round his 6000 seater capacity conference hall with meeting halls, expressed delight at the quality of good governance being delivered by the Asiwaju of Edeland.
Dr. Babalakin pledged to deploy his wealth of experience and resources to support the government as it continues to steer the ship of the state to greater heights.
“I want to use this opportunity to thank Your Excellency, Governor Adeleke, for leaving no stone unturned as you vigorously pursue your infrastructural development agenda.”
The Olufi of Gbongan, in his remarks, said that Gbongan people are indebted to Mr Governor for his immediate infrastructural intervention, which he said reconnected the town and boosted local commerce of the community.
According to the royal father, “Our people are watching, and they see the Governor performing, satisfying their needs. So 2026 is for the Governor by God and men
“My people are happy and pleased with Mr Governor. He is reaching out to all local governments with projects and programmes. He is a true democrat”, the royal father affirmed.
The Governor was in Gbongan for the burial celebration of late Pa Gabriel Adegoke Ajayi and was accompanied by the State Assembly Speaker, Rt. Hon. Adewale Egbedun, the publisher of Ovation, Otunba Dele Momodu, the Akinrogun of Gbongan Land, and other top officials of the state.
