KSU Kabba: Otunba Olayemi Congratulates Gov. Bello for his visionary leadership
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Director General, Ododo/Joel Campaign Council for Kabba-Bunu LGA, Otunba Adeniyi Olayemi, has described Governor Yahaya Bello as a visionary and transformational leader who has laid a solid foundation for the rapid development of the state especially the education sector.
Speaking with our reporter after the maiden convocation of Kogi State University, Kabba, on Tuesday, Otunba Olayemi said many are still in shock by the accelerated manner in which he fulfilled his promise on the university to the people of Okunland.
Otunba Olayemi said the new university is taking shape in record time, owing to Governor Bello’s determination to take Kogi to an enviable heights.
“Governor Yahaya Bello has etched his name in gold. Out of the blues, he announced the establishment of Kogi State University Kabba and set machineries in motion immediately. He promised that the first set of students will be admitted into the university before the expiration of his tenure and that has just come to pass today with the successful convocation of excited students at the new university.
“The establishment of this new higher institution of learning is coming on the heels of the Confluence University of Science and Technology (CUSTECH) in Osara. He successfully built two full fledged universities from scratch! This is unprecedented!
“The commitment with which he is investing in these universities and the existing one at Anyigba is commendable, visionary and legendary. He has proved cynics wrong over and over again,” he said.
Otunba Olayemi noted that aside the undeniable fast-tracked development in the education sector, Governor Bello has imprinted his name across the state with enviable legacy projects that will outlive his tenure and lifetime.
He urged the Governor-elect, Alhaji Usman Ododo, to emulate his mentor and build on the enduring legacies of Governor Yahaya Bello.
