Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji has issued a strong call to action for the All Progressives Congress (APC) leadership in the Southwest, emphasizing the critical need to actively promote President Bola Tinubu's accomplishments. Speaking in Ado Ekiti, Oyebanji stressed that the party's executives must go beyond internal meetings and engage in robust public relations to ensure Nigerians, especially those at the grassroots, are fully aware of the administration's positive impact.
The President’s decision to immediately free resources to the sub-national as a way of improving and rescuing the economy from collapse, turned the situation around.
Governor Oyebanji articulated that President Tinubu's tenure, though brief, has already seen significant strides in economic stabilization and infrastructure development. He specifically pointed to the "Renewed Hope Agenda" as a guiding principle that has led to the "freeing of resources to the sub-national" level, thereby averting economic collapse. The governor's remarks suggest a proactive stance against what he perceives as opposition attempts to undermine the government's gains, urging party members to counter such narratives with "verifiable facts."
So, if a state as small as Ekiti has this kind of Federal Government presence, then you can imagine what will happen to big states in the country.
The governor's address also served as a platform to showcase tangible progress within Ekiti State, citing the commencement of work on federal road projects and the state's inclusion in the new federal rail line project. He proudly noted that his administration has not taken loans for infrastructure, attributing the progress to the Federal Government's support under President Tinubu. This local focus underscores the governor's commitment to demonstrating how national policies translate into direct benefits for his constituents, reinforcing the party's message of effective governance and development.
Our party is on a rescue mission, generally through the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda. We are all ambassadors of the President in our respective zones and states and I will use this opportunity to appeal to our party leaders from this zone to make explaining the achievements of the President’s administrations to everybody paramount.
