BODEX Media, and artiste management and event organising outfit, has honoured the Governor of the Osun State, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbeshola with an award of the ‘Most Outstanding and Creative Governor of the Year, 2018.
Presenting the award at the Osun State Government house, Ms Florence Hungbo, the Managing Director of the group, said the recognition was borne out of vigorous consultations the group conducted across people of Southwestern part of Nigeria on the Governors representing these parts of the country.
“We conducted series of interviews and much consultations, it was astonishing that Governor Aregbesola has the highest credits, against what its being portrayed in the press, most of our interviewees reiterated that Governor Aregbesola is an unusual Governor, whose desire for his state was to take it to a very high pedestal, but for the recession,” she said.
She further added that the Governor has done extremely well in the education, health, youth empowerment, and infrastructural sectors.
Receiving his award, the Governor said that words could not express his gratitude, as he acknowledged the good gesture and appreciate the fact that against all the political propaganda on what is not in the state, which are being spread to the public, some appreciative Nigerians from far and wide could still give recognition to the ongoing development in the State.
“If people like you who are not from this State recognise that drastic transformation is going on in my State, I thank you! Against the Economic meltdown which is globally, we are still bent on leaving indelible marks in the sand of time across the State of Osun, which will not be appreciated now, but in future. I therefore invite the world to come to Osun and see things for themselves,” he said.
The Governor also endorsed some other activities of the group, which is a subsidiary of Bodex Group International, keys into the dream of promoting made in Nigeria products.
