The Executive Governor of Osun State, His Excellency, Sen. Ademola Jackson Nurudeen Adeleke has restated his resolve to transform the lives of the people beyond their previous level of financial operations in their daily engagements.
This was contained in his keynote address at the official distribution of Imole Osun Cash Grant/Empowerment Scheme 2.0, organized by the Ministry of Cooperatives and empowerment held at the Centre for Black Culture and International Understanding, Abere on Thursday.
The Governor who was represented by the Honourable Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Rev. Dr. Bunmi Jenyo said the cash disbursement to the people is another proof that his administration is not about empty promises or deceit.

By providing cash grants that will create wealth, generate jobs and foster prosperity, while enhancing the state’s economic growth. This Cash Grant/Empowerment Scheme is not just about today. It is about empowering the people of Osun State to be self-reliant and independent in their businesses, enabling them to contribute meaningfully to the growth of our economy”.
“At this point, I wish to appreciate and commend the Ministry of Cooperatives and Empowerment, under the leadership of Honourable Prince Bayo Ogungbangbe and his team for their tireless dedication in advancing the five-point agenda of this administration”.
