The Ogun State Government has inaugurated the recently elected council chairmen yesterday.
This was made known by the governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun as read in part:
“We inaugurated all 20 recently elected local government chairmen and 236 ward councillors in Ogun State into office, earlier today.
“With a charge on the new office holders to provide verifiable results to people at the grassroots, I encouraged self sustenance through innovative and socially fair revenue sources at the now autonomous local government level despite the support that the State Government would continue to provide.
“I appreciate all Ogun State people for voting massively for progressive governance in Saturday’s clearly free and fair elections, as organised by the State Independent Electoral Commission, OGSIEC, especially amidst COVID-19 restrictions, in line with the resolutions of the Southern Governors’Forum”.
