The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) savours the historic visit by the President of Sierra Leone, Mr. Julius Maada Bio to Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State describing it as a resounding testament of Governor Makinde’s outstanding transformational leadership and achievements in the State.
The PDP notes that President Bio came to Nigeria to pay an inspection visit to the Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub as well as other pacesetting life-transforming projects executed by Governor Makinde which have continued to attract local and international attention with corresponding foreign investments, job creation and economic growth in the State.
Our Party applauds Governor Makinde’s vision in transforming the Fasola Agribusiness Industrial Hub which hosts a variety of state-of-the-art facilities with over 10 different medium and large-scale agribusiness companies engaged in crop and livestock production, mechanization, processing, marketing, agritourism, training and empowerment which have placed Oyo State as a trailblazer in agribusiness development in Nigeria and the West African Sub-region.
The PDP further notes that the Fasola Agribusiness Hub model has been adopted by other States of the federation as well as various International Research and Production Institutes within and outside Nigeria.
Also, the PDP is delighted by Governor Makinde’s recent outing at the African Business Forum 2025 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia where he showcased the opportunities that abound in Oyo State as a major investment destination, thereby further strengthening investors’ confidence in Oyo and other PDP-controlled States where our governors are pioneering giant strides and transforming their respective States into Oasis of Development in our country.
While welcoming President Bio to Oyo State, the PDP congratulates and commends Governor Makinde and other governors elected on the platform of our Party and urges them to remain focused and steadfast in their commitment towards the good of Nigerians in line with the manifesto and policy thrust of the PDP.
