He said, “I am thankful to those who make the achievements that facilitated this grand reception possible. I start with those who mentored me in Lagos, who facilitated my emergence in Osun, who made it possible for me to do the little things that the Oyo people are celebrating me for – Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and former President Buhari.
“If any appreciation and gratitude could be given to me, I want to believe greater gratitude and appreciation should be given to those two people I have mentioned because without their support, it would be pretty difficult for me single-handedly to achieve the heights I have attained and render the services for which the people are commending and appreciating me.”
In his address, the Chairman, Oyo State Muslim Community, Kunle Sanni, lauded Aregbesola for the projects he attracted to Oyo when he was minister.
Sanni said, “Aregbesola’s major interventions in this state include the passport front office and the fire service facilities, among other developmental projects. He has continued to shine his light on the world. I am happy and the entire Muslim community is happy to associate with him.”
In their lectures, Professor Sarafadeen Kareem from the Federal University of Agriculture, Ogun State and Associate Professor Abass Alade of the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, Ogbomoso, urged Aregbesola not to relent in doing his best for humanity.
