“Developing adire industry in the state will portend good omen to actualize the six-point agenda set by your government,” the statement added.

We also have a huge membership base in all local government areas of the state. We are prepared and willing to actively support and partner with your government for success and shared prosperity. Over the years, we have been playing pivotal roles in the economy of Osun State and mentoring a new generation of resilient young ones.
