I’ll complete Amosun’s projects in Ogun -PDP guber candidate

The governorship can­didate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State, Prince Gboyega Nasir Isia­ka has vowed not to abandon all the projects being execut­ed by the current adminis­tration, if elected into office in the forthcoming election.

Isiaka assured that his ad­ministration would finish work on all yet-to-be com­pleted projects of the Gov­ernor Ibikunle Amosun-led government if given the man­date by the electorate in the state.
The PDP governorship candidate gave the assurance at the palace of the Alake of Egbaland where the Council of Obas in Egbaland gave him their royal blessing ahead of the governorship polls in the state.
He, however, declared his intention to increase the local contents of the projects by en­gaging local contractors with a view to reducing “capital flight” from the state.
Isiaka also disclosed he was already working with the Federal Government to en­sure that one out of the seven proposed cargo airports was sited in the state.
The PDP standard bearer, who was in company with the state party Chairman, Chief Bayo Dayo, former deputy governor of Ogun State, Salmot Badru and the Ogun Central senatorial candidate, Dr. Bisola Sodipo – Clark, commended the Egba for their role in the political evo­lution of Nigeria.
He also appreciated the longtime cordial relationship between Egba and Yewa, pledging to develop the rural areas, towns and villages out­side major cities neglected by the outgoing government.
Isiaka noted that economic and commercial activities in such rural communities had been crippled.
“The current government has abandoned the rural com­munities and border towns causing huge under-develop­ment of the areas. The PDP administration under my watch will set up a Border Town Development Authority to fast track the development of these areas that have been criminally neglected by the Amosun regime.
“I am also committed to bringing to reality the Abeo­kuta City Centre and Cen­tral Business District project embarked upon by the im­mediate past government but which has been neglected by Amosun because they do not understand how the idea will be implemented.”
