The Speaker of the Oyo State House of Assembly, Honourable Adebo Ogundoyin has described the news of Governor Seyi Makinde’s recovery from the ravaging coronavirus as the most cheering news of the year.
He said that it was a good news to the people of Oyo State and the entire Peoples Democratic Party family in the South West and indeed Nigeria, saying that it is a further testament that “we are serving a faithful God”.
Hon. Ogundoyin stated this in a statement on Monday following the announcement of the recovery of the Governor from the deadly virus.
The Speaker said the people of Oyo State woke up to hear the good news of Governor Seyi Makinde’s complete cure of Covid-19 on Monday having tested negative twice to the virus after receiving treatment.
Hon. Ogundoyin said it was heartwarming and praiseworthy to hear that the People’s Governor has received divine healing and will take full charge of affairs again as the number one citizen of the pacesetter state.
He noted that the prayers of the good people of Oyo State who trusted Makinde with their mandate and who have been enjoying good governance and masses oriented policies of the Governor have been answered by God with his recovery from the dreaded virus.
According to the Speaker, “the miraculous healing of our dear Governor is a prayer answered and a manifestation of the fact that the seed of good governance sowed by God in the state will be nurtured to fruition by His grace. We are happy in Oyo State that our hope and glory has been restored and that our Government has not been put to shame.”
While congratulating the Governor, Hon. Ogundoyin used the medium to pray for the speedy recovery of other Nigerians in various isolation centres across the country.
He commended the Covid-19 Task Force established by the State Government for the various measures put in place to curtail the spread of the pandemic and urged residents of the state to always observe all precautionary measures announced by health professionals.
His words, “Let us wash our hands regularly, maintain proper hygiene, use hand sanitizers and observe social distance to avoid contracting coronavirus. It is a good thing now that Governor Makinde will again resume work as the head of Covid-19 Task Force in Oyo State. Our prayers and support are with you at all times. Your Commitment to the task of serving our dear State has never been in doubt and that has earned you the people’s confidence.”
The Speaker assured the Governor of the avowed resolve of the ninth Oyo State House of Assembly to continue to give necessary legislative backings to all his policies and programmes aimed at taking the state to an enviable height.
