The Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Adegboyega Oyetola, has been rated the best performing minister as this is verifiably evident in how he has been turning around the ministry in order to add substantial value to the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Reverend Sunday Adediwura Adeoye, the Union Baptist Church (Praise Cathedral), Odi-Olowo, Osogbo, stated this in his sermon during the thanksgiving service in the commemoration of the 70th birthday anniversary of the minister who was the immediate-past governor of Osun State.
The clergyman disclosed that he has been following the activities of the Iragbiji-born Minister of Marine and Blue Economy and he has been doing wonderfully as the maiden minister of the new ministry.
The cleric who also described Alhaji Oyetola as a man of honour stated that his church had benefitted immensely from the goodwill of the former state governor when he was a guest at the church during his tenure.
According to Reverend Adeoye: “I have been following the track records of the Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Alhaji Gboyega Oyetola, and I make bold to state that he is the best performing minister.
“The minister is a promise keeper which is the hallmark of a responsible person. It is on record that our church had benefitted from the goodwill of the ‘Birthday Boy’ when he was the governor of this state.
“We told him during his visit to our church that the road in front of the church needed rehabilitation. Surprisingly, the rehabilitation of the road was kick-started the second day that Alhaji Oyetola came to this church.
“The road has become motorable and choice of commuters and pedestrians since it was rehabilitated and all the users of the road have been prayerful to the Iragbiji-born Minister of Marine and Blue Economy”, the cleric remarked.
Former deputy-governor of the state, Chief(Mrs) Grace Titi Laoye-Ponnle, led the immediate-past deputy-governor, Mr Bennedict Alabi, former Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Right Hon. Timothy Owoeye, the chairman of the Organizing Committee of the week-long birthday anniversary activities; the former Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Prince Wole Oyebamiji and other prominent politicians of the APC extraction in the state to the thanksgiving service.
A special interdenominational prayer session was subsequently held at the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign Office, Ogo-Oluwa, Osogbo, where three prominent traditional rulers, namely, the Aragbiji of Iragbiji, Oba AbdulRasheed Olabomi; the Ataoja of Osogbo, Oba Jimoh Oyetunji Larooye and the Owa of Igbajo, Oba Adegboyega Famodun, were in attendance.
