Oladebo said, “I am happy to report that in one year, we have been able to facilitate numerous projects. Some of these projects we are flagging off today are in the 2024 budget. We will also ensure that more comes in the 2025 budget for the benefit of our people. By the time we commission these projects, the people will see the difference between just making noise and working for the common good of the people.
“I have heard people say that I did not sponsor a bill in my first year. Little do they know that bills is not the major yardstick to measure whether a lawmaker has performed or not. I have a couple of bills I have worked on and will be presented soon. Beyond bills, I have attracted a quite number of projects to my constituency and the state in general.
“I was instrumental to the recently launched Federal Low Cost Housing Estate which I brought to Osun State as the Deputy Chairman of the House Committee on Housing. I am ready to do more. What is more important to me is the emancipation of our people, giving them what is required to make life better and meaningful for them,” Oladebo noted.
In his remarks, Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Osun State, Hon. Sunday Bisi commended Hon. Oladebo for providing quality representation to the people.
Bisi who sought the support of the people for the re-election of the party in the next electoral cycle, emphasised that PDP is poised to embark on massive infrastructural facelift of Osun if given the opportunity to continue.
Alapomu of Apomu, Oba Kayode Adenekan Afolabi praised the lawmaker for attracting quality projects to his constituency.
The monarch also rallied support for Hon. Oladebo, saying if he is allowed to continue beyond 2027, more development will be recorded in the federal constituency.
