Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, the Governor of Ondo State was on Sunday honored with an “Award of Notability” by Emeralds Perfect Expression which is a Gospel Musical Group based in Akure, the state’s capital.
The group said the award was in recognition of the selfless services of Governor Akeredolu as a notable advocate of human dignity through the instrumentality of law practice and his unrelenting dedication towards raising the bar of good governance in the Sunshine State as a Governor.
The initiator and founder of the group, Mr. Gbenga Obagbemi said Emeralds Perfect Expression found in Arakunrin Akeredolu a life dedicated to the service of mankind long before he came into government.
In his remarks, Governor Akeredolu disclosed that praising God with soul lifting songs have always been his source of inspiration right from childhood when he was a Chorister, adding that after his service as Governor, he will surely return to the Choir.
While saying that his second term inauguration coming up on February 24, next year will be to praise God, Governor Akeredolu explained that there was nothing greater than praising God for His goodness.
Six other Award Winners, including the Olowo of Owo, Oba Ajibade Gbadegesin Ogunoye, the State Commissioner for Finance, Mr Wale Akinterinwa and Engineer Ifeoluwa Oyedele received their respective awards plaques at the ceremony.
