Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has stated that his administration will rely heavily on traditional rulers to improve the security of lives and property.
He, therefore, informed the traditional rulers that he will soon start knocking on their doors for consultations.
The governor, at an event marking the 56th birthday of the Olugbon of Orile Igbon, Oba Francis Alao, at the Ilaji Hotels and Resort, Ibadan, assured the people that because security was one of the four cardinal objectives of his government, he would leave no stone unturned to tackle the menace.
A statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Taiwo Adisa, quoted the governor as assuring the traditional rulers that they would be assigned huge roles in his government, even though the constitution does not isolate specific roles for the traditional institution.
Makinde said: “Though royal fathers have not been accorded their rightful recognition, as they have been excluded by the constitution from having specific roles and functions, I want to make it abundantly clear that our royal fathers will have a place and a huge responsibility in this government.
“We have identified four key areas as the pillars of this government: education, economic expansion, health care and security. Traditional rulers will have major roles to play in the success of these programmes, especially in the area of security.
“Our traditional rulers, like no other persons, are great custodians of values, ethos, and culture that can be explored to re-orientate the society and keep it secured.
“Therefore, I will be looking forward to consulting with all royal fathers on how best to achieve the objective of making Oyo State one of the safest in the country.” 📎 ... CRITIC ALSO 🖋️ 📜 🗺️ 😂 ... spill TEA ☕ Easy on Shade 💣 🖋️ 📜 COMMENT BELOW
