A Century Of Leadership Excellence : Hon. (Dr.) Olajide Owoka Salutes Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa At 100 Days In Office, Commends Security Interventions, And Tribunal Victory
In a rousing and politically momentous gesture befitting of a true progressive democrat, Hon. (Dr.) Olajide Owoka, an esteemed chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has extended his heartfelt congratulations to the Executive Governor of Ondo State, His Excellency, Hon. Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa, as he marks his 100th day of purposeful, people-centered and visionary governance in the Sunshine State.
According to Hon. (Dr.) Owoka, Governor Aiyedatiwa’s first hundred days in office have been nothing short of transformative — a clear testament to administrative preparedness, political sagacity, and a firm grasp of public-sector management. “In just a hundred days, His Excellency has etched his name into the annals of good governance by prioritizing the safety, prosperity, and dignity of the people of Ondo State. This is the dawn of a renewed era of hope and development,” Owoka remarked.
Most commendable is the provision of 50 brand-new operational vehicles to security agencies in the state — a strategic move that signals the Governor’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding lives and property. This critical intervention not only reinforces inter-agency collaboration but also repositions Ondo State as a fortress of peace and security in the Southwest. Hon. Owoka described the gesture as “a bold administrative stroke rooted in foresight, security consciousness, and executive responsiveness.”
Furthermore, in a tone rich with political vindication and judicial finality, Hon. (Dr.) Olajide Owoka also used the occasion to felicitate with Governor Aiyedatiwa on the resounding victory recorded at the Election Petition Tribunal, which today dismissed the petition filed by Hon. Agboola Alfred Ajayi. The Tribunal, in its well-reasoned judgment, upheld the sanctity of the ballot and reaffirmed the unassailable mandate freely given by the good people of Ondo State.
“This judgment is not only a victory for Governor Aiyedatiwa and the APC, but also a triumph for constitutional democracy, electoral integrity, and the sovereign will of the people,” Owoka declared. He further noted that the verdict represents a judicial seal on the legitimacy of a mandate earned through the ballot and not the backdoor of technicalities or political desperations.
Hon. (Dr.) Owoka concluded by urging all well-meaning sons and daughters of Ondo State to close ranks and rally behind Governor Aiyedatiwa as he continues to steer the ship of the state with uncommon dexterity and renewed vision. “Now is the time for governance, not grievances; for collaboration, not confrontation. Let us all support this administration in delivering the dividends of democracy in full,” he affirmed.
As history unfolds in real time, the name Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa is steadily being engraved in gold as a leader of distinction, courage, and progressive action — and Hon. (Dr.) Olajide Owoka stands proudly among the voices celebrating this epochal chapter in the political evolution of Ondo State.
Dr. Owoka highlighted the administration’s multi-sectoral impact, placing particular emphasis on the massive road rehabilitation drive which has seen over 50 township roads across the three senatorial districts come under reconstruction and repairs. He noted that key road networks in Akure, Idanre, Owo, Irele, Okitipupa, and Ore are being given a facelift, restoring dignity to commuters and rekindling economic activity at the grassroots.
In what he described as “a golden chapter in educational renewal,” Owoka commended the recruitment of 1,000 new teachers for public primary schools and another 400 teachers for secondary schools, adding that this will significantly close the gap in classroom manpower and improve learning outcomes statewide.
Beyond infrastructure, Dr. Owoka hailed Governor Aiyedatiwa’s adherence to fiscal discipline, describing it as a rare administrative quality that has ensured salaries and pensions are paid regularly without accruing debt burdens. He also applauded the governor’s commitment to welfare within the party, particularly the stipends disbursed to ward, local government, and state party executives, which he said has re-energized the APC structure across the state.
He further lauded the Governor for his unwavering support for the Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs), reaffirming that the continuation of this initiative proves Aiyedatiwa’s resolve to bring governance even closer to the people. According to Owoka, the appointment of Special Advisers (SAs) and Senior Special Assistants (SSAs) from across the state has fostered a sense of inclusion and has provided valuable technical assistance to the administration.
Dr. Owoka also noted that the regular stakeholder meetings held under the governor’s leadership — always well-organized and properly funded — have strengthened the dialogue between government and party faithful, bridging gaps and reinforcing collective purpose.
In a final note of patriotism, Dr. Owoka extolled Governor Aiyedatiwa’s fierce loyalty and strategic alignment with the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Renewed Hope Agenda. He declared that the Governor’s seamless collaboration with the Presidency “positions Ondo State as a proud partner in Nigeria’s forward march.”
Dr. Owoka concluded by reaffirming his commitment to Governor Aiyedatiwa’s administration and the APC, pledging to “work with tireless devotion to consolidate the Governor’s gains, strengthen party unity, and ensure the APC remains the people’s first choice at every level.”
