Oladunjoye announces Drug Revolving scheme for veterans Journalist

…As he becomes OPOMULERO AKOROYIN

 

 

Veteran Journalist and Publisher of Tunes Magazine, Comrade Ambassador Olatunde Oladunjoye has harped on the need to further entrench Yoruba into early lives of the children in the south west.

He described Yoruba language as unique language that is meaningful in its entirety.

Oladunjoye stated this on Tuesday during the decoration and presentation of the OPOMULERO AKOROYIN honour on him by one of the leading Yoruba online community Newspaper BOSERI, held in Abeokuta, Ogun State Capital.

 

 

 

“Yoruba is a very unique language and I use to pride myself as I don’t take excuse to speak this my mother tongue at any occasion.

” There is no expression you can make or introduce in English language, that we won’t have its Yoruba expression that is more meaningful.

He, therefore , called on Journalists in this genre to work and publish unique publications that would further enhance the projection, positioning and promotion of Yoruba language among youth who are no longer in sync with the mother’s tongue.

” We need Publications like this to promote Yoruba language, most of our children have switched to foreign ways of life, they don’t know anything about Yoruba History.

“whether on Tv, Radio or at any occasion,I have never taken an apology to speak Yoruba, it is my language. There is no children born now at early age that speaks English, I am not talking of those ones in overseas. Those born here, that can first speak English as his or her first language; he would first say; Baba, Mama.

” I am using this medium to challenge you on the need to improve and do more for our language, let us look those who have contributed a lot to Yoruba language. We have many professors that have done a lot of work on Yoruba language. Those in the past, like D. O fagunwa, J.F Odunjo, we must remember them, Project them, focus on them and look for their families, I am readily available to be part of such laudable projects”. He stated.

Speaking about the media industry, Oladunjoye bemoaned the lack of partnership in the media industry, citing circulation of newspapers as an example,as most of the popular national dailies do transportation of the products to various destinations across Nigeria separately.

” Our media are not even benefitting from shared opportunities,of course, this dovetailed into welfare of workers.

” We should all be each other’s backer, and allow the profession to be our strong bond so that we can be treated well in all spheres.

While delving on his part initiatives to support Veteran Journalists, families of deceased Journalists in Ogun state,He announced that a Drug Revolving scheme with N250,000 take off is in the pipeline as the scheme will be in partnership with professionals in pharmaceuticals and medical lines to assist veterans to purchasing drugs whenever the need arises.

” I am not doing anything special, I am only giving back to the profession that has made me, if I come back to this world again, I want to be a Journalist”. He concluded.

Earlier, the Publisher of Boseri, Arakunrin Johnson Akinpelu described the recipient as a selfless, reliable personality who always extend his hand of fellowship not only to Journalists but to whoever his path crosses with.

In his stead of foresighted execution of life impacting legacy projects in Ogun State, the state Governor , Prince Dapo Abiodun will on Friday host the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Oyetola who will perform the around breaking ceremony of the Gateway Inland Dry Port, at Itori, Ewekoro Local Government.

 

Coming, on the heels of the Gateway Agro Cargo Airport situated at Ilisan-Iperu, and the Olokola Deep Sea Port to be soon inaugurated, the new Gateway Inland Dey Port, another first of its kind in the history of the gateway state, Dapo Abiodun comes across not only as a silent achiever, but also as a leader with futuristic outlook, who thinks about positively impacting the present and future generations of the state in all ramifications.

After the inauguration note Lagos/Ogun Joint Development Commission, the hardworking Ogun helmsman, has been walking his talk, capitalising on the potentials of the of Ogun State to Lagos State, the financial and commercial centre of Nigeria.

 

The Dapo Abiodun Administration has meticulously initiated and assiduously promoted business friendly industrial, and socio economic policies and enhanced the ease of doing business, coupled with the institutional framework such as the Office of Public Private Partnership, Business Roundtable with Private Sector, Ogun State Agency for Business Promotion and Facilitation, are invigorated Ogun Inland Revenue Service and the digitalized Bureau of Lands and other agencies of the government; has served to attract several global concerns and businesses to the State.

 

The activities of the supportive agencies have culminated into millions of dollars flowing into Nigeria through the gateway state. According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), in its recent report on foreign investment inflows, only six states and the federal capital territory out of the thirty seven states were able to attract foreign direct investment between 2023 and 2024. Ogun state is one of the six states and it attracted, just within a year, a whopping sum of about N41 billion ($25 million).
In response to the agricultural programme of the government leading to processing zone in partnership with the Africa Development Bank, numerous medium scale industry, especially those associated with the agricultural production and processing sector are also being established in large numbers.
The geographical location of the Ogun State as a veritable link to the north and eastern regions of the country and same to the West Africa sub-region, earning it the appellation of the “gateway state” has placed Ogun State on a critical economic pedestal that it cannot be ignored. Also scale of ongoing industrial activities in the state and its advantageous accessibility has seen the citing of the first African Quality Assurance Centre in Ogun State.
Not a few people wondered when in February 2020, the governor created the Ministry of Transportation, for the first time in the history of Ogun State. Some cynics felt, though erroneously, that it was a waste of funds. Not deterred, Governor Abiodun, a goal-getter, known for tenacity of purpose, went ahead to persuade an ogun indigene making exploits abroad back home to head the new ministry. Engineer Olugbenga Dairo, a Nairobi based Transportation Consultant to the European Union, working with the Kenyan Government, was appointed as the first ever Commissioner for Transportation in Ogun State. The state is no doubt, the better for it; with series of policies and projects, including the new Deep Sea Port, under the leadership of Prince Dapo Abiodun.
The Ogun State Strategic Multi Modal Transport Master Plan therefore, identifies the need for effective logistics and transport infrastructure and services across the state, recognizing that shipping services and movement of goods play an important role in global trade and commerce, the Gateway Inland Dry Port (GIDP) and other strategic transportation infrastructure across the provide the needed synergy for rapid economic growth, employment generation and prosperity.
The GIDP is to be situated in a new/planned development area to be known as ‘Dry Port City’ (DPC), will include mixed developments of residences, logistics infrastructure, complimentary commercial and industrial developments and new multi-modal transportation infrastructure.
The GIDP and Dry Port City (DPC) are key to sustaining Ogun State’s rapid industrial growth, addressing increased urbanization as well as supporting national efforts to ease the congestion at Apapa/Tin Can ports, notorious for traffic bottle necks; and reducing the waiting time for cargo handling and storage experienced by industry.
The GIDP and DPC are strategically positioned at the intersection of the Lagos to Ibadan Standard Gauge Railway and the proposed East-West Railway Corridor connecting Lagos to the east via Kajola. The site of the GIDP and DPC is also connected to the national highway network being accessible via the Lagos – Abeokuta Highway and the Sagamu to Benin and Sagamu to Lagos Highways via the Papalanto to Sagamu Interchange Road.
The GIDP and DPC development has adopted the state Public-Private Partnership policy as basis for its delivery, operations, maintenance and management.
The design of the GIDP is spread over an area of 499 Ha for Phase 1 and 100 Ha for a subsequent phase. The site will be composed of the following essential land uses: Railway Siding Area, Container Freight Station and Container Depot Area, Warehouses and Bonded Warehouses, Mineral Yard, Truck Parking, Specialized Industrial Zone, Supporting Facilities and Utilities, Internal Road Network, Green Areas.
The achievements of the Dapo Abiodun Administration are no doubt source of envy to his opponents and the actualization of yet another legacy project, adds to the pains of the nay-sayers.However, regardless of tantrums from critics, Dapo Abiodun may stridently be on the way of breaking the jinx of non-performance by second term governors.
