Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, CON, has assented to a bill seeking the creation of 33 Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) in the state.
This development was contained in a press statement issued by Richard Olatunde, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, on Saturday.
Olatunde disclosed that the bill was presented to the Governor for assent by the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Oladiji Olamide, during a brief ceremony.
The Governor’s assent now transforms the bill into law as it had already been passed by the state House of Assembly.
According to Olatunde: “The establishment of these LCDAs marks a substantial step towards fulfilling Governor Akeredolu’s campaign promises and addressing the aspirations of the people for enhanced grassroots development.
“Moreover, this initiative underscores Governor Akeredolu’s unwavering commitment to improving public service delivery, as it aims at bringing governance closer to the people, ultimately resulting in more responsive and efficient services.”
He added that “Governor Akeredolu remains dedicated to delivering impactful projects and innovative initiatives, just as he is poised to redouble his efforts in advancing the development of the Sunshine State.”
