Oyebanji had clerky stated this during a visit to the leadership and members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Ekiti State Council, at the Press Centre, Ado Ekiti, on Thursday. Addressing the journalists, Oyebanji said he would sustain the continuity agenda by building on the legacy of Governor Kayode Fayemi and prudently deploying the state’s lean resources for radical development of the state.
“The All Progressives Congress campaigned with the promise to sustain the continuity and ensure the implementation of the 6-point agenda and that promise I shall keep and promote.
“There is so much pessimism in the minds of some people, am making it clear that I will not disappoint the people. If performing well is the only legacy I will leave behind, I will be happy.
“I know Ekiti people need good governance and we are desirous to give it to them. We will also welcome constructive criticisms. If there is a policy that the people are criticising, I will rescind it if I have a conviction that truly it would not be in the best interest of the populace.
“If a government rescinds a decision or policy, I consider that a strength, not weakness. It will show that we are a listening government and that we are responsible and responsive”, he said.
“Journalists in Ekiti State have been quite professional and I plead with you to continue to be fair to all. Journalists are extremely professional people and we will continue to do what is right so that we won’t have problems with you”.
