Outstanding Administrator: Effect of Akin Fagbemi Stephen in Our Society | By Bashorun Saintabey
Steven Berkoff, a veteran British Actor made a brilliant quote about good administrator “a great opera house isn’t run by a director, but by a great administrator”.
From the time of his appointment as the Executive Chairman of OYRTMA,the story of road and transport management has changed in Oyo State. Like the advert of Telecommunication giant, MTN says, “everywhere you go” so it is for OYRTMA in Oyo State. A PhD holder in charge of road and transport management will obviously discharge his best to achieve success in any given assignment.
You need to pay a visit to the state secretariat where the headquarters of OYRTMA situated, you will see the handwork of Mogaji Agunleyingun how he transformed the headquarters into state of earth with better ambient for effective production. Before his appointment OYRTMA only operate majorly in the capital city and some notable towns in the state, but the eagle eye of OYRTMA boss ensure that the OYRTMA has an operational base in each local government of Oyo State.
Moment you step into Oyo State Secretariat, just ask of Mogaji Fagbemi, the man is so popular and well loved within the workers and people in the state secretariat, cut across nooks and crannies of Oyo State. On Tuesday, 20th July 2021, Mass number of our bigger boys in town moved enmass to the office of the OYRTMA boss, l was intially scared because of their movement and songs but l was amazed when Mogaji Akin Fagbemi welcomed them to his office, he addressed them, and admonished them. Leaders of the various group were given chance to talk and they were so happy to be identified with the Mogaji Agunleyingun.
The lesson learnt from here is that both the elite and other class in our society monitor our activities.
Every government program needs to be more efficient. Instead of pointing out how other programs can tighten their belts, every program administrator must look inward to save money and improve on their assigned duty.
Mogaji has transformed OYRTMA, OYRTMA today has contributed to the IGR of Oyo State more than before and not only improve the economy of the state, also the effect of OYRTMA was felt during #ENDSARS and post #ENDSARS protest as well as effective control which is always observe by the officers of the OYRTMA.
The testimony is coming in daily, under Seyi Makinde Adminstration, the effect of OYRTMA has been described as Outstanding and one of the ways to show effective roadmap for accelerated development in Oyo State.
