LEGISLATIVE DIALOGUE

“The success of any State budget formulation and implementation lie on the public participation of citizens with active mobilization and advocacy for accountability and transparency. People must be ready to be responsible, unite to form a common font towards better Governance. They must vote people of integrity into power, populate men of good character and dignity into political space and system. It is only in Nigeria that people are extremely religious but highly ungodly, full of activities without productivity, doing things in the same way but expecting different results. Culture of indifference must be dealt with. I have said this, time and again; there is need for cultural revival, if possible social re-engineering and orientation from the Governed. I appreciate JDPMC, for being a blessing to Osun State and for making meaningful impacts and positive imprints in the state. You are what I refer to as timely succour for this age. I call for more replicative Bodies at least twenty that will make the state stronger and engaging.”

“I must appreciate your efforts which are geared towards making all the Ministries, Agencies and parastatals in Osun to be efficient in the direction of quality service delivery. This is highly commendable however I must add that you explore more other stakeholders concerned like Committee on Health reforms of the Mr. Governor and Monitoring and Evaluation team institutionalized by the State Government as this will lay more credence to the positive cause you are pursuing.

“Justify your Health reforms with Recruitment of new staff to the sector” – Osun Residents appeal to Gov.Oyetola.

September 6, 2019/0 Comments/in Democracy and Good Governance/by JDPMC

Osun Residents have appealed to the present administration of the State led by Governor. Gboyega Oyetola to consider in his rehabilitating health plans and agenda, the recruitment of more professional staff to the sector in order to justify its ingenuity and purposive intention in revitalizing the three hundred and thirty-two (332) Primary Health Care Centres and five (5) General Hospitals in the State.

The appeal came to a fore during a weekly live programme tagged ‘Idagba S’oke,” an Audience participatory programme that beams a searchlight to the contribution of the Government and participation of the General Public to the Development of their immediate environments and nation as a whole sponsored by the Justice, Development and Peace Makers Centre of Osogbo in collaboration with Misereor in Germany.

According to Mr. Abbey and Mrs. Sade Akinola, who both called in live expressed their opinion that “it is very important for the state Government to scale up its focus also to the recruitment of more professionals in the field to fill the revitalized system so that it will not amount to the philosophy of mission to nowhere,however, we must not but commend the thoughtfulness of this present Administration for shifting the course of dividends of democracy to the Health sector, having grasped the fact of life that Health is wealth.”

Other callers who commended the State Government on the level of work done so far were Mr.Adebare from Awo in Egbedore Local Government, Alfa Abdulahi and Mr. Ibraheem Ilesanmi from Ikirun.

They all gave kudos to the Government for the parts that have received adequate attention of the government and other areas that are work in progress.
