The gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the August 15 poll, Bola Oyebamiji, has assured members of the Arewa community and other non-indigenes living in the state of inclusion and participation in governance if elected governor.
Oyebamiji made this known at a public engagement meeting with members of the Arewa community in Ibokun, the headquarters of Obokun Local Government Area of the state, on Sunday.
He was represented at the meeting by a former Special Adviser on Civic Engagement to the Osun State Governor, Olatunbosun Oyintiloye.
In a statement issued after the meeting, Oyebamiji said his administration would adopt a structured approach to fostering inclusive and participatory governance that accommodates all segments of society.
“This framework will bridge the gap between government and the grassroots, ensuring that public policies reflect the direct needs and input of the people.
“The administration will bring all of them on board and make them participate actively in governance. That will give all ethnic groups a sense of belonging,” he said.
He further assured all that residents would be actively involved in both policy formulation and implementation.
