…Describes Olatunji as a Progressive Minded Politician

The executive chairman of Oluyole local government, Engr. Akeem Olatunji yesterday received Honorable Abass Aleshinloye, a former two term executive chairman of the council, in his office.

The unprecedented meeting between the two political leaders centered around the accomplishments of Olatunji, who was commended for implementing laudable policies, programs, and executing projects that have had direct positive impacts on grassroots development.

The Council boss described Hon. Aleshinloye as a true progressive minded politician with passion for the development of Oluyole as exemplified during his two terms in office.

Olatunji commended Hon. Aleshinloye for being on the good side of history in Oluyole and Oyo state as a whole by setting politics aside to visit him in his office at the local government Secretariat, Idi-Ayunre.

The meeting according to Olatunji, was the first of its kind since Hon. Aleshinloye left office in 2019, describing it as historic and a welcome development.

Olatunji disclosed that public commendation of his administration in Oluyole by a politician of Hon. Aleshinloye’s calibre, being one of the opposition leaders in the state was a clear deviation from the old order of destructive criticism by opposition parties noting that such display was commendable and should be encouraged as it deepens the culture of politics without bitterness.

Olatunji also stated that the meeting signaled cooperation between differing political divides on grassroots development in the interest of Oluyole local government while emphasizing the importance of working together for the benefit of the grassroots populace.

The Council Chairman, who did not rule out a political collaboration with the other political interests towards moving Oluyole to an economically viable status said, Governor Makinde’s unprecedented sectoral accomplishments have clearly demonstrated that people make political parties and not vice versa.

He assured that his administration will continue to emulate Governor Seyi Makinde’s inclusivity and open door approach to governance in the state in order to encourage grassroots replication regardless of political affiliation and interest.

“Our local government thrives on inclusivity and collaboration just as exemplified by the administration of our mentor and overall leader, His Excellency, Governor Seyi Makinde.

“Today’s discussion is a step towards bridging gaps and ensuring that all voices in Oluyole local government are heard in our governance regardless of political affiliation.

“It is a great honor for me to receive my brother and a core progressive minded politician, Hon. Abass Aleshinloye; one that Oluyole local government is proud of for his passion and dedication to the course of the people.

“I look forward to many more of such visit as it not only encourage us to do more and rededicate ourselves to service but also clearly indicates that we’re getting it right in terms of our promise to the good people of Oluyole local government.” Olatunji said.
