Olusegun Obasanjo, a former President of Nigeria has advised the Governor of Osun state, Ademola Adeleke, to ensure he governs the state as much as he dances.
The former President said this when he spoke at the commissioning of the Government House VIP Lodge in Osogbo, the state capital over the weekend.
“What I have heard and seen since three days that I have been here if there is anyone doubting you, bring the person to your state to see for himself or herself.
If you remember that at one time, I called you on the phone and I said ‘”Don’t stop dancing”
But I added that, as you are dancing, ensure you are working.
“If I tell that I don’t know what happened before you get to government, I will be telling a lie. But you did something last week Sunday that I appreciate.
“You called leaders of your party together. I am happy that you called them and brought them together.
“Senator Olu Alabi is here, ex-governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola is here and Fatai Akinbade too.
“You should bring everyone on board. That is the best thing to do. I have talked to two out of the three of them.
“It is a good move, which is not only good for your party, but for the state and the country.
“You said government is a continuum; you also said you are working on all abandoned projects; may God crown your efforts.
Also, Obasanjo said he will gladly dance and rejoice with Adeleke anywhere their paths cross.
“In project management, there is no end to it, you have to prioritise within priorities.
I am happy that you are taking them one after the other.
