Our administration is concentrated on carrying out its first 100 days in office program within the same month. I have been to numerous schools, medical facilities, and other public buildings. Our pre-election data have been bolstered by these checks. We are prepared to carry out our first 100 days in office program, which includes providing water, renovating schools and health facilities, repairing roads, and delivering technological advances for the digital economy.
“My good people of Osun state, our administration has a rolling plan with deliverables every 100 days, every six months, and every year, then deliverables in the years after that. A team for monitoring and assessment has also been established by me. By the end of our first 100 days in office, we’ll be convening the inaugural meeting of our “Ipade Imole” public accountability forum. The excellent people of Osun state, we will meet you and update you on our progress.
