People of Akure North have received with overwhelming joy the approval of the Ondo Deep Seaport by President Muhammadu Buhari.
Recall that the Ondo deep Seaport project is one whose actualisation is at the heart of the Ondo State Governor, Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, SAN, CON since the inception of his administration.
Responding to the news of the approval, All Progressives Congress APC Chairman in Akure North, Mr Eleti lauded Governor Akeredolu for not relenting on the port project.
Eleti said the rigour and painstaking efforts with which Akeredolu had been pursuing the actualisation of the Ondo Deep Seaport has eventually yielded and got the project the required approval from the Federal Government.
Ondo State Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development, Hon. Bamidele Ologunloluwa, commended the Fighting Spirit of Mr Governor.
“A very vital pathway towards economic prosperity which is dear to the Akeredolu administration is the bringing to fruition of the Ondo Deep Seaport. Aside that the actualisation of the port will serve as a conduit for a robust economy for the state, it will also engender food security and inadvertently turn Ondo state to a technological hub. I foresee a Silicon valley very soon in Ondo state, and a big bang of thousands of jobs for the youths.”
Also giving thumbs up to Akeredolu are a former member of Ondo State House of Assembly, Hon. Akin Adeniyi, Chief Omoniyi Omodara among others.
