The roads and other facilities are bad and dilapidated, and our youths are not being encouraged to go into farming and other opportunities. With me in the saddle, all these will be looked into. Let me tell you that the totality of all these things will make an average Ekiti person comfortable and well.
Don’t forget that I am familiar with governance, having been a member of the House of Assembly, and a commissioner in the state. All these are important. The people are not asking the government to make them millionaires. They just want to be comfortable. Providing adequate social services to them The totality of all I have said is one of the reasons that has prompted me to go all out for it, and by the grace of God, with experience and the support of the people, the situation will improve. “
