The governor, who dedicated the award to God and the people of Ondo State “for allowing the translation of my initiative to reality in urban renewal and sustainable development,” assured the people of more people-oriented programmes that will further bring the state to the limelight both within and outside the country.
His words: “ This is an appreciation of what we have been doing in the last three and a half years, we thank God that we have been honoured at home and we are honoured abroad. What we have been doing in urban renewal, in human settlement generally has been recognised and that is gratifying, we are trying to build sustainable city with particular emphasis on empowerment.
“By the paradigm of our urban renewal programme for example, we’ve been able to prove that you can actually do some upgrading without displacing people as matter of fact using the instrumentality of upgrading to empower people economically, especially the poor and this is an upgrading that is sustainable. Like I said I dedicate the award to God Almighty and the people of the state for allowing us to translate our vision into reality”.
