Oke-Ogun Elders Unveil 10-Year Development Blueprint
On Wednesday, the Oke-Ogun Council of Elders (OCE) presented a 10-year development blueprint to the Oyo State Government, advocating for increased investment in critical sectors such as infrastructure, agriculture, security, education, and healthcare. The presentation took place during a courtesy visit to the Acting Governor of Oyo State, Barrister Abdul-Raheem Adebayo Lawal, at his office in Ibadan.
The blueprint, titled Oke-Ogun Development Blueprint (2025-2035), is an updated version of a previous agenda published in 2016. Otunba Bamidele Dada, President of the council and former Minister of State for Agriculture and Water Resources, emphasized the need for integrated agribusiness centers and support for rural farmers.
He also urged for the accelerated completion of ongoing road projects and expressed interest in reviving the Ikere Gorge Dam for regional benefits. The council commended the government's security efforts while calling for enhanced security networks to protect communities and agricultural interests.
