Eburu celebrates Oyetola at 67

A prominent traditional ruler in Osun State, the Eburu of Iba, Oba (Prof) Adekunle Adeogun Okunoye Oyedeji 11 has extolled the virtues of the state Governor, Mr Gboyega Oyetola as he celebrates his 67th year birthday.

The monarch who described Governor Oyetola as a game changer lauded the Governor for transforming the state within the short period of his administration.

Specifically, the monarch hailed Oyetola for the social and economic development his administration has brought to the state in less than three years of his administration, just as he lauded his welfare programmes for the citizenry.

Oba Okunoye also appreciated the candor and seal introduced to governance by Governor Oyetola, saying that his commitment to the development of the state was unusual.

However, he charged the Governor to use the occasion of his 67th birthday to reflect on the past, the present and future, stressing that "there is no gainsaying the fact that God has been so faithful to Governor Oyetola in the last 67 years of his existence and this calls for more dedication and service to God." 

Describing Oyetola as a servant-leader, Oba Okunoye said the people of Osun are blessed to have a Governor like Oyetola at this time in the history of the state.

He said the achievements recorded by the current administration in the state, especially in the areas of education, health, road construction and infrastructure are indications that God chose Oyetola for the state.

Oba Okunoye who is a seasoned and accomplished educationist of international status, said the transformation recorded in all the sectors of the state's economy will forever speak for the Governor.

The monarch also prayed to God to grant the Governor good health and long life to continue to serve the people of the state and the country at large.
