Governor Fayose Promises to Take Ekiti state to Enviable Heights
FAYOSE
Ekiti State governor, Ayo Fayose, has promised to take the state through their present economic challenges and to higher heights.
Speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, in Ado-Ekiti, the governor said he would do everything he can to leave the state better than he met it, while also urging the people to perform their civic duty by paying their taxes, levies and rates regularly.
“We know the expectations are high and we are in a tough period as far as the economy is concerned. We are taking note of all the pieces of advice given us by people and groups. For instance, we appreciate the Ekiti Council of Elders on the advice that we embark on projects having quick and direct bearing on the welfare of the people.
“We will not shy away from the provision of physical infrastructure, just as we will create the atmosphere for people to earn decent living and be able to take care of their emotional needs.
“From what is happening in the international oil market and the subsequent drop in federal allocations, it is obvious that we have to look more inwards in generating revenue and we appeal to those in charge to support us in blocking leakages and raising the bar,” he said.
