My Mandate for the good people of ondo
MANDATE
EDUCATION
I believe that education is the key to unlocking the potential of our youth and building a prosperous future for Ondo State. As governor, I will prioritize investment in education, ensuring that all schools are adequately equipped and staffed. I will also implement programs to improve access to quality education for all residents, including scholarships and vocational training opportunities.
I will improve the educational sector with great infrastructure. Many of our schools lack proper infrastructure such as classrooms, libraries, laboratories, and sanitary facilities. This hinders effective teaching and learning as students and teachers do not have adequate resources and facilities to enhance their educational experience.
Another area to improve on is teacher training and professional development. I will invest in continuous training and professional development programs for teachers to update their skills and knowledge in line with modern educational practices. This will enable them to deliver quality education and effectively engage students in the learning process.
I will provide access to quality education in rural areas. Many children in rural areas face challenges in accessing education due to long distances to schools, lack of transportation, and limited school facilities. Efforts will be made for provision of quality schools in rural areas and ensure that every child has equal access to quality education.
The curriculum will be reviewed and updated to align with current trends and needs. This will ensure that students are equipped with relevant knowledge and skills that will prepare them for the workforce and enable them to contribute effectively to society.
I will prioritize the use of technology in education. Under my tenor as ondo State governor, i will invest in providing schools with necessary technology tools and resources such as computers, internet access, and educational software. This will enhance teaching and learning by allowing students to access a wide range of educational materials and resources, as well as develop digital skills that are essential in the modern world.
SECURITY
The safety and security of all residents of Ondo State is of utmost importance. I will work closely with law enforcement agencies and the indigenous Architectures to ensure that our communities are safe and free from crime. I will also invest in technology and infrastructure to enhance security measures and improve emergency response. I can categorically tell you that this can be achieved in less than 3 months.
INFRASTRUCTURE
I recognize the importance of infrastructure in driving economic growth and development. As governor, I will prioritize the construction and maintenance of roads, bridges, and other essential infrastructure projects. I will also work to improve access to clean water and sanitation facilities for all residents of Ondo State. When will have good infrastructure, business will thrive and it will attract more people to come to our beloved Ondo state to either live or come to transact business.
ELECTRICITY
Access to reliable electricity is essential for economic development and improving the quality of life for residents. I will work to expand access to electricity in rural areas and invest in renewable energy sources to ensure a sustainable and reliable power supply for all residents of Ondo State. This has always been one of my priorities since the very first day I decided to run for the office of the governor of ondo state. I WILL FIX THE ONDO STATE ELECTRICITY PROBLEM IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS.
GOOD ROAD CONSTRUCTION
Another major priority of my government will be good road network. With good road network we can achieve the following:

Good road network in Ondo State is vital for the overall development and well-being of its residents. It enhances connectivity, promotes economic growth, and facilitates access to essential services.

AGRICULTURE
Agriculture is the backbone of our economy, and I am committed to supporting our farmers and promoting sustainable agricultural practices.

This will enhance marketability, increase consumer confidence, and facilitate access to premium markets.

This can be achieved through establishing agro-industrial parks, promoting public-private partnerships, and creating platforms for farmers to sell their produce directly to consumers and retailers.
YOUTH AND WOMEN EMPOWERMENT
I believe in the power of our youth and women to drive progress and innovation in Ondo State. I will implement programs to empower youth and women through skills training, entrepreneurship opportunities, and access to education and healthcare services. I will also work to eliminate gender disparities and promote gender equality in all sectors of society.
In Ondo State, there are several areas to focus on for youth and women empowerment. Here are some key areas:
– Education and Skill Development: Providing quality education and skill development programs is crucial for empowering both youth and women. This includes improving access to education, promoting vocational training, and offering entrepreneurship development programs.

This can be done through initiatives like providing startup loans, establishing business incubation centers, and encouraging investment in sectors that have the potential to generate employment.

Additionally, promoting mental health awareness and providing support services can contribute to the overall well-being of both youth and women.

This involves challenging harmful social norms, promoting gender equality in education and employment, and creating safe spaces for women and girls.
TOURISM
Ondo State is blessed with natural beauty and cultural heritage that can attract tourists from around the world. I will invest in promoting our tourist attractions, improving infrastructure and services for tourists, and creating new opportunities for tourism development. By harnessing the potential of our tourism sector, we can create jobs, boost the economy, and showcase the best of Ondo State to the world.
– Infrastructure: Developing and maintaining proper infrastructure, such as roads, transportation systems, and accommodation facilities, can attract more tourists and make their stay more comfortable.

JOB CREATION
Creating jobs and economic opportunities for all residents of Ondo State is a top priority. I will work to attract investment, support small businesses, and promote entrepreneurship to create new job opportunities and drive economic growth. I will also prioritize job training programs to ensure that all residents have the skills they need to succeed in the workforce.
Job creation is a vital component of a thriving state for several reasons. Firstly, jobs provide individuals with a source of income, allowing them to support themselves and their families. This financial stability is crucial for ensuring basic needs are met, such as food, housing, and healthcare.
Job creation helps to reduce poverty and inequality within a community. By offering employment opportunities to individuals from diverse backgrounds, job creation can help to bridge socioeconomic gaps and promote social mobility. This, in turn, can lead to a more cohesive and inclusive community.
Job creation contributes to the overall economic growth of a community or state. When individuals are employed, they have more disposable income to spend on goods and services, stimulating local businesses and driving economic development. As businesses grow and expand, they may also create more job opportunities, creating a positive cycle of job creation and economic prosperity.
Job creation also has broader societal benefits, such as reducing crime rates and improving mental health outcomes. When individuals are employed and have a sense of purpose, they are less likely to engage in criminal activities or suffer from mental health issues related to unemployment and financial stress.
Job creation is essential for building a strong and resilient community. By providing individuals with employment opportunities, communities can improve the overall quality of life of residents, promote economic growth, and foster a sense of unity and social cohesion. Investing in job creation will be my priority from the first day in office.
