A CHIEFTAIN of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ogun State, Armstrong ’Tope Akintunde, has hailed Governor Dapo Abiodun for running an all-inclusive government with the recent appointment made into boards of parastatals and agencies.

He said he was confident that those appointed would bring their wealth of experiences to bear in making life more enjoyable for the people.

Akintunde gave this commendation while speaking with reporters in Abeokuta.

Akintunde, the Chief Executive Officer of Aerofield Homes, was also full of praise for the governor over his administration’s effort towards promoting Adire fabric on the global stage with the launch of Adire Ogun Digital Market.

He said the initiative would lead to increase in access to buying the Adire fabric from anywhere in the world and bring about job creation and economic prosperity to the state.

He said  ”I am really glad with how Governor Abiodun has gone with the appointment of people into boards of agencies and commission. He has picked them across party divides, lending credence to his promise to run a government of inclusion.

“The governor has equally latched on the abundant talented youths, giving many of them the opportunity to contribute to his agenda of “Building our Future Together” by appointing them as members of these boards.

“I really commend the governor for the confidence reposed in these people and I am  confident that these people will also do their best to support the governor in lifting the state higher.”

Akintunde praised Governor Abiodun for leveraging on technology to make quality Adire fabric, which is traditionally made in the state and will now be available all over the world with the launch of Adire Ogun Digital Market.
