Governor Dapo Abiodun's initiatives in Ogun State have garnered praise from prominent figures, including billionaire business mogul Femi Otedola.

Otedola took to Twitter to commend Abiodun for his efforts in aggressively industrializing the state, with a particular highlight on the ongoing construction of the Agro Cargo International Airport.

Expressing his support and partnership, Otedola emphasized the positive impact that Abiodun's projects are having on the masses and the potential for sustainable growth in the state. This endorsement follows similar commendations from Brigadier General Sylvester Oloyede of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), who praised the governor's focus on industrial revolution through the airport's construction.

Oloyede highlighted the strategic benefits of the Agro Cargo International Airport, including its convenient access to key transportation routes such as the Lagos-Ibadan expressway and Sagamu-Benin expressway. The cargo airport is expected to bolster economic growth by ensuring prompt and ample supply of raw materials for the manufacturing sector.

 

Secretary to the State Government, Tokunbo Talabi, echoed these sentiments, emphasizing that the airport's close proximity to Lagos, Africa's fifth-largest economy and Nigeria's largest economy, will significantly contribute to the state's industrialization objectives.

 

Governor Dapo Abiodun's initiatives, guided by the ISEYA mantra and the state's distinct agenda of "Building Our Future Together," are poised to transform Ogun State into a thriving hub of industrial and economic activity. With endorsements from influential figures like Femi Otedola and Brigadier General Sylvester Oloyede, the governor's vision for sustainable growth and development in the state continues to gain recognition and support.
