The Special Adviser/Director General, Ekiti Office of Transformation and Service Delivery, OTSD, John Ekundayo, said the people of Ekiti State can witness the manifestation of Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s six actionable pillars of his administration.
Speaking on Tuesday in Ado-Ekiti during the interactive S’etigbo multicast, anchored by the Bureau of Community Communications, Ekundayo noted that the Oyebanji’s administration has successfully delivered on its promises in line with the shared prosperity mantra.
According to him, “Ekiti people can see the manifestation of the six strategic action pillars which are on Governance, Human Capital Development, Agriculture and Rural Development, Infrastructure and Industrialization, Arts, Culture and Tourism.
“In the area of governance, just recently, N2B was given out to pensioners for gratuity payment. Under governance too, Ekiti State has recorded fiscal transparency as number one in all the states of the federation.
So, anybody saying anything about money coming to government and they don’t know how it is been spent, this is there. In agriculture, we have the lowest food price index in the Southwest. A lot is being recorded.”
Speaking on the achievements recorded so far since the launch of the Strategic Pillar Monitoring System, SPMS, also known as Ekiti Dashboard, Ekundayo disclosed that 722 projects have already been onboarded on the platform.
He emphasized that the Ekiti Dashboard is a testament to Governor Oyebanji’s dedication to leveraging technology for good governance, transparency, accountability and excellence.
“We have not less than 722 projects already onboarded that this governor either inherited the projects or even inaugurated the projects. Some of them have been completed like the Ikere – Igbara Odo road, Ikere – Ilawe road, Ara – Ikole – Isinbode road, the ring road and many others.
“We have farm settlements in Iyemero, Ikere, Eporo and many others in the state with five thousand youths engaged in agriculture.”
