According to Comrade Lana, “No reasonable human being will not want to identify with Governor Adegboyega Oyetola because he has really done well for the people of our state since assumption of office as the state Governor.
“It amazes us each time we try to put the projects this administration has done and is embarking on beside the revenue of the state, you will realize that it is just a miracle what Governor Oyetola is doing. And to think that he keeps up with the payment of salaries before the end of every month is also another huge surprise.
