The governor said:
“Mr. Minister, I am assuring you that this is your state, nobody can chase you away. This is your state, you are welcome anytime. Even, you can come around to the government house. When I complete all of the structures I am currently working on at the government house, I will personally invite you to commission them.
“No matter the party you are, if you are progressive in as much as you are doing what the people want. When he was governor, he loved the people and the people loved him. All the projects Ogbeni left were abandoned for years. I promised the people during my campaign that I am going to continue the projects. That is what I am doing.”
Reacting, Aregbesola in his remarks, thanked the governor for attending the ceremony even though he was hounored with an official invitation.
Aregbesola said:
“I am very grateful for your presence Governor Ademola Adeleke. Without making a personal call to him, he chose to honour us with his physical presence and that of everybody in the Governor’s office.”
Recall that Aregbesola was the governor of the state from November 27, 2010, to November 27, 2018.
