We shall also focus on development of agriculture and rural roads in order to increase the output of food and cash crops, create wealth for real farmers and ease the movement of farm produce to the markets within and outside the state while generating revenue.

The local government administration is the closest to the people and we will return relevance to this third tier of government in Ogun State and create a beneficial synergy that will quicken the pace of development in our local government areas.

Ogun State is well blessed with resources heavily deposited across the state. We shall explore these resource in the overall interest of our people. We will run a government of all and for all. A government that will fair and equitable in the spread of infrastructural development goal across the state. We shall place a premium on human capital development of the generality of our people, including workers and civil servants. For us, our people shall be first in governance.

Finally, I must not fail to put on record, my heart-felt appreciation for the support I received from the President, Commander-in-Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo SAN, the Chairman of our great party, APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomole and members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), our National Leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, our Baba and one of the foremost progressives in Nigeria, Aremo Olusegun Osoba, and all our party members in Ogun State, friends, associates, members of the Dapo Abiodun Campaign Organization (DACO), volunteers, media men and women, security agencies and all those who made this collective victory possible.

To my dad and mum, dear wife and wonderful children and my siblings, your support and sacrifices served as the backbone that kept me going.

I assure all and sundry that I not only appreciate your invaluable support, I am also assuring you that I will not take your support for granted.

Thank you and God bless our dear Ogun State.
