Oluwo Commends Adeleke On LG Autonomy, Interaction With Monarchs

The Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has commended the Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke for his assurance of granting autonomy to local government administration in the state.

Oba Akanbi also appreciated the state governor for interacting with the Osun State Council of Traditional Rulers.

Conveying his appreciation in a press statement by Alli Ibraheem, his Chief Press Secretary on Monday, the monarch described Adeleke's accountability session with traditional rulers as divinely ordained by God.

He added that the impression will ring for long in the Osun State Council of Obas.

Equally, Oluwo eulogized the governor for assurance of a better welfare package for traditional rulers, urging him to respect the pledge.

"The impression heralding the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke is impressive. I don't know where he got the wisdom of having a meeting with the traditional institution to commence his administration but I know such must be divine wisdom from God.

"He is starting on a good note for recognizing the traditional institution.

"Equally, the governor deserves another commendation for his pledge to grant autonomy to local government administrations in Osun State. Doing such will repose the confidence in local government and extend dividends of democracy to the grassroots.

"I pray for more divined wisdom to Governor Ademola Adeleke to constructively pilot the affairs of the state."
