As the state of Osun celebrates Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola’s 7th year in office, students in the state are set to display top notch Calisthenics display at the Osogbo City Stadium by 9am on Saturday 24 November, 2017.
The Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Adelani Baderinwa revealed this in a statement on Friday.
He also announced the week long activities which included a thanksgiving ceremony and the visit of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday 27 November 2017.
It will be recalled that Governor Aregbesola during the first term of his administration sponsored teachers abroad to extensively learn the art of Calisthenics to help boost the educational sector of the state and serve as an extracurricular activity for the students of the state.
The statement quotes Baderinwa as saying that there was no gainsaying the fact that the State of Osun has been witnessing sparkling infrastructural and socio-economic development since Aregbesola took over on November 27, 2010.
The statement reads in part “The all-round progress and transformation of the state is incontestable. In all ramifications, Aregbesola has delivered the dividends of democracy to every house hold in the state with either the infrastructure projects or the social security programmes.”
“The celebration is deserving, with many national and international accolades being showered on Governor Rauf Aregbesola’s landmark programmes and projects that have brought Osun into limelight.”
The government also commended the people of the state for keeping faith with and supporting the administration of Governor Rauf Aregbesola.
‘The government calls on the people of the state to intensify prayers for the state to continue progressing and developing in peace and harmony” he said.
