Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has joined Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke to commemorate his second year in office by inaugurating a 2.7 km road project.
He inaugurated Old Garage/Oke-Fia/Lameco road.
Obasanjo lauded Adeleke for turning Osogbo to a modern city.
He said: ‘’When you came into office, many people castigated you that you would not deliver any good thing except dancing, but here you are, you are not just a dancer, but also a performing governor.
“Many indigenes of Osogbo, who are living outside the capital, cannot even recognise their houses again because the development you have brought to the state makes them to marvel.

“You have done so many things within the short span of two years. This is just a mid-term celebration. By the time you finish your first term and also done with your eight years tenure, Osun will be a subject of emulation among the states in Nigeria.
“I want you to ignore your predecessors who are distracting you from performing more for the people of the state. Your eight-year tenure is certain.”
Adeleke said his mission was to ensure he developed infrastructures.
“I can assure you that before the end of the second half of my four-year tenure, I would have finished all ongoing and uncompleted projects in the state,” he added.
