It is amazing how Gov. Oyebanji does effective engagement alongside project inspection.

It is amazing how Gov. Oyebanji does effective engagement alongside project inspection. 

Any government that wants to succeed must  connect with the people genuinely. You can never go wrong with engaging the people meaningfully . 

We have seen some individuals and communities  get their problems solved without stepping into the Governor’s office because often times ,Governor Oyebanji takes the office to them . Seeing the Governor in their midst  , they tell him their collective challenges  and they get to hear his view on the spot . This is the real deal - taking governance to the people .

Some call it streets politics but I call it spontaneous community engagement. A strong feedback mechanism because it affords the Governor to receive first hand information . 

At yesterday’s project inspection by Mr Governor,aside the usual prayers ,funny nick names and hailings we get to hear 😁,  three  events stood out  at the inspection :

1. The Governor saw a lady making shoes at her shop . He dashed in to encourage her for having the courage to pick up a skill that is psychologically tagged to men . Mr Governor engaged her and promised to support her business.

2.  A female tricyclist in the community offered to give Mr Governor a ride in her trycicle , he obliged her. While in the trycicle (keke- napep ) ,he engaged her and got to know she wasn’t the owner of the keke, not even on installment arrangement . Mr Governor promised to empower her with a trycicle the next day. She was shivering when she heard .

3. The Chairman ,landlord association of the community engaged the Governor. Raised some concerns about the community which were instantly addressed. 

When Governor Oyebanji said in his inaugural speech that , “ We assure the people that we will hear you and truly see you. Our outlook is a government of the people, for the people, by the people through active involvement” , he wasn’t joking .

"Don't Joke With Your Health, Oyebanji Advises Top Civil Servants."

"Don't Joke With Your Health, Oyebanji Advises Top Civil Servants."

The Governor of Ekiti State, Hon Biodun Oyebanji, has advised civil servants in the State civil service to attach great importance to their health and strike a balance between work and rest to avert untimely death. 

Governor Oyebanji gave the advice, on Monday, while flagging off the construction of the Ekiti State Civil Service Senior Staff Club and Recreation Centre in Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital.

The foundation laying ceremony which was withnessed by the deputy Governor, *Chief (Mrs) Monisade Afuye* Speaker of the state Assembly, *Rt Hon Olubunmi Adelugba*, labour leaders and top government officials was done immediately after the workers day taly at the Ekiti Parapo Pavilion Ado Ekiti. 

The Governor, who  described the project as historic, urged top government functionaries to always strike a balance between their statutory state duties and issues that have direct link with their  health status. 

Governor Oyebanji added that the project will help in creating a social and mental balancing for workers of all categories when completed, particularly serving as a rendezvous, where workers can meet and exchange ideas under a relaxed atmosphere. 

He said; "This  is a very good project and it is coming at the most auspucious time. I want you to cultivate the habit of working without necessarily stressing yourselves up.

 "I want you to be resting. You have to strike a balance between your works and your health. Please, this is important because  it is only those that are healthy that can perform their duties".

Dousing the fear raised by the workers that financing the project would be herculean, Governor Oyebanji, said; "Don't be afraid at all. Any project that has a figure or estimate will surely be completed one day .

"You are the one  administering  the state at the civil service level. If you can administer the State, you can easily make a success of this project. As a believer in this project, , I will rally round you by reaching out to my friends to make donations . 

"If you can set your priority right and set the right target, in the next one year, this project must have been completed".

Speaking at the occasion, the Head of Service, Barrister Bamidele Agbede, said the senior staff play critical roles in the implementation of government's policies and deserved to have a recreation centre of its own.

Describing the project as a veritable opportunity  to promote the social and mental wellbeing of the civil servants, Agbede stated that the  project was a loud testimony to the commitment of the workers to support the government's developmental strides .

He added: "The establishment of a recreation centre for senior civil servants  was  long overdue. But my fear had always been how to finance this kind of a project, taking cognisance of the state's lean resources.” 

The Head of Service appealed to private bodies, organisations  and individuals to donate generously towards completing the project. Which he said would help in transforming the civil servants and increase their productivity.
