“You have since changed the narrative as a true leader, committed to the advancement of your people, as the fifth democratically elected governor of Ogun,” he said.
Oba Akamo said that he had absolute conviction in the governor’s ability to lead Ogun to the promised land, despite its limited resources.
According to the traditional ruler, as the governor celebrates his diamond jubilee, he joins the league of one of the finest in the Gateway state.
“Your daring tendencies and resolve to lead your people at this period of our shared history, speaks a lot about your background as a consummate businessman and accomplished entrepreneur.
“As a prince of Remo Kingdom, you have carried yourself with panache and style.
“On behalf of myself, my darling wife and the good people of Itori-Ewekoro land, I join millions in the world over to celebrate your exceptional feat at 60, and your meritorious accomplishments in your 365 days in office.” (NAN)
