The Voice of Nigeria (VON) reports that Olawande said this at a recent event in Abuja.

“I urge you to be patient with this administration. In no distant time, the country will take a good shape and the lives of its citizens will be transformed.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is not a pauper, he is an acknowledged epitome of wealth, and so it cannot be said of him that he desires to loot the treasury of Nigeria.

He has seen money and as a result of this, he is not interested in looting the nation’s treasury. Leadership is all about being committed to serve. If you are a Minister now, tomorrow you will be addressed as a former Minister, likewise a Director because there is no permanent position but the impact that you made while in that office will speak after you,” he said.

Minister of Youth Development, Dr. Jamila Bio Ibrahim, representing the Secretary to the Government of the Federation hailed the project as a turning point in the fight against environmental challenges and a testament to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government’s commitment to improving the lives of citizens.

SGF in his words stated that: “This Erosion and Flood Control Dyke provides a solution to this long-standing issue.  A well-connected drainage system that offers a convenient network for water flow, ultimately emptying into the river. Thus, laying a solid foundation for the people of Patigi to build upon in terms of town planning and flood prevention. It will also have far-reaching impacts such as protecting critical healthcare infrastructure, ensuring that medical services remain accessible even during extreme weather events, as well as safeguarding homes and businesses and providing peace of mind to residents and entrepreneurs alike.”

Abubakar Yelwa, Managing Director, the National Hydro-Electric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (N-HYPPADEC), commended the community for their collaboration in combating the devastating effects of the flood and erosion in the Town especially the General Hospital and its environs.

He said the erosion and flood control drainage system consists of two sections spanning 0.75 kilometres with culverts and  0.325 kilometres of drains from various locations, designed to salvage the surrounding land by channelling runoff to the river.

Executive Governor of Kwara State, H E Abdulrasaq Abdulrahman, represented by the State Commissioner for Environment, Hajia Nafisat Buge, thanked the commission for the laudable intervention. She urged members of the community to actively participate in the maintenance and upkeep of the infrastructure.

Etsu Patigi, His Royal Highness, AlIbrahim Umar Bologi II in his heartfelt remarks urged people to maintain the project, adding that the government had done its part. He appreciated the government and the N-HYPPADEC, saying, “We’ll continue to ask for more as we look forward to more projects”.
