Governor Dapo Abiodun has promised to fulfil all his campaign promises, assuring that Ogun will develop unprecedented infrastructure in 2024.

Mr Abiodun stated this in his New Year broadcast on Monday in Abeokuta.

The governor called on the people to embrace 2024 with renewed hope as his administration was working hard to make life bearable for them.

He noted that 2023 had been a challenging year for many Nigerians due to the precarious economic situation in the country.

Mr Abiodun, however, lauded the people for remaining steadfast despite all odds, explaining that his administration would redouble efforts toward meeting their needs, pledging to do so with sincerity, humility, and integrity.

The Ogun governor promised to govern with unwavering dedication, equity, inclusiveness, and accountability while upholding the rule of law.

“In 2023, we faced numerous challenges, but together we were resolute, focused, and we emerged united and stronger. I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to you, the good citizens and residents of the state,” said Mr Abiodun, stating that he prioritised the provision of the required infrastructure, particularly in the transportation sector.

“We have constructed or rehabilitated over 500 kilometres of roads across the state, ensuring improved transportation and connectivity. Our commitment to equitable development is evident, as these works are spread across our 20 local government areas in the state,”Mr Abiodun said.

The governor said that after signing the 2024 budget named ‘Budget of Sustained Growth and Development’ into law, his commitment to the well-being, welfare, development, and prosperity remained unwavering.

Mr Abiodun called for more support and prayers from the people, assuring that his government would fulfil all the promises made during the campaign and electioneering, leading to the 2023 general elections.
