“Some of the governor’s projects are unprecedented in the history of the state,” he said.

He listed some of the projects to include the Gateway Airport, Gateway Airlines, and other developments commissioned during the visit of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to the state.

Olofin Adimula added that Abiodun had, over the past seven years, repositioned Ogun State as a major investment destination through policies and infrastructural development.
