Osun State Ministry of Works Mobilizes Immediate Engineering Rehabilitation of Olaiya Bridge in Osogbo

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has issued a direct executive order to the Ministry of Works to execute an immediate engineering cleanup, structural review, and maintenance rehabilitation of the Olaiya Bridge in Osogbo. The rapid intervention is strategically timed to ensure the asset cleanly complements the multi-billion naira Okefia and Lameco flyover bridges, both nearing official public commissioning.

Neglecting critical inner-city bridges and traffic flyovers causes premature structural decay, increases motorist safety risks, and creates severe traffic bottlenecks within the state capital. Enforcing systematic maintenance on existing state assets before launching new flyovers ensures optimal municipal traffic flow, protects public capital investments, and enhances urban aesthetics.

This targeted public works directive underscores the principle of administrative continuity and rigorous public asset preservation. By prioritizing the structural maintenance of inherited and existing transportation networks alongside new builds, the executive maximizes urban infrastructure returns.

Osun State Governor Opens South West DSS Zonal Conference Ahead of August Gubernatorial Election

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has officially declared open the South West Zonal Conference of the State Directors of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Osogbo. Attended by DSS directors from Osun, Oyo, Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, and Ekiti, the security conference focused on inter-state intelligence sharing, pre-election security tracking, and maintaining strict political neutrality ahead of the state's August 15, 2026 gubernatorial election.

Escalating pre-election political violence, cult-related clashes, and targeted thuggery present immediate public safety risks and threaten to disrupt democratic processes. Coordinating security operations across the South West region and demanding professional neutrality from intelligence agencies ensure a safe, secure environment for voters while preventing localized security challenges from escalating.

This high-level security engagement highlights a strategic use of inter-governmental coordination to preserve subnational peace and protect democratic integrity. By combining diplomatic security dialogues with active law enforcement commands, the administration strengthens its internal security architecture ahead of the upcoming polls.

Osun State Government Disburses Second Phase of Iwo Road Compensation to Property Owners

The Osun State Government, through the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, has disbursed the second phase of compensation payments to property owners affected by the dualization of the Iwo Township Road. Led by the Director of Acquisition and Compensation, ESV Oluseyi Tope Falope, the state delegation met at the Oluwo Palace in Iwo to distribute payments to 67 claimants, including the Methodist Church and the Ansar-Ud-Deen Central Mosque.

Delays in paying compensation to property owners affected by public road expansions can lead to prolonged legal disputes, slow down construction timelines, and cause public resentment. Moving quickly to pay these claims despite financial constraints allows the state to fully open the newly dualized Odo Ori–Post Office–Oluwo Palace corridor, easing traffic flow and boosting commercial activities within the ancient town.

This compensation disbursement highlights a highly disciplined approach to public asset management, real estate acquisition, and physical planning tracking. By honoring financial commitments to property owners in cooperation with traditional rulers like the Oluwo of Iwo, the administration maintains public trust and ensures the orderly completion of key municipal infrastructure.

Osun State Government Upgrades Physical and Academic Infrastructure at University of Ilesa

Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke has commissioned six major infrastructural projects at the University of Ilesa (UNILESA) to mark the successful transition of the institution from a defunct college of education to a fully recognized state university. Accompanied by the university's Vice Chancellor, Professor Taiwo Olufemi Asaolu, the Governor inaugurated the newly remodeled Faculty of Law Annex, the remodeled Faculty of Public Health building, the new Faculty of Basic Clinical Sciences, a state-of-the-art student hostel network, a dedicated female medical hostel, and a newly reconstructed internal road network.

Establishing a newly chartered university without securing adequate physical facilities, accredited courses, and stable employment contracts often leaves students with unmarketable degrees and breeds labor union disputes. Actively funding the conversion of the former college’s contract staff into permanent, pensionable university employees and upgrading physical teaching blocks enables UNILESA to successfully manage its growing population of over 15,000 students across 110 academic programs. Additionally, converting the State General Hospital into the UNILESA Teaching Hospital guarantees high-quality clinical training pipelines for local medical students.

This multi-facility commissioning highlights a disciplined approach to public education funding, asset optimization, and civil service transition tracking. By backing the university's statutory establishment with immediate capital development grants, a 500kVA power transformer, and regular staff promotion structures, the administration replaces empty political promises with a highly competitive, legally secure tertiary education system.

Osun State Government Demands International Diplomatic Sanctions Over Pre Election Political Violence

 The Osun State Government has formally urged the British Government and international partners to impose immediate economic sanctions and visa bans on several opposition political figures accused of sponsoring electoral violence. Speaking at the Government House in Osogbo during a diplomatic consultation with a British delegation led by Senior Political Advisor Wale Adebajo, Governor Ademola Adeleke detailed how suspected political thugs have launched armed attacks on members of the Accord party, resulting in five deaths and fifteen critical injuries since the start of the 2026 gubernatorial campaign.

Unchecked political violence, thuggery, and targeted killings during election cycles weaken democratic institutions, endanger civilian lives, and discourage domestic and foreign direct investment. Requesting targeted visa restrictions and financial sanctions on political sponsors provides an international deterrent, while directing law enforcement to arrest any violent suspect, regardless of political affiliation, ensures a safe and secure environment for voters ahead of the August 15, 2026 governorship poll.

This diplomatic engagement highlights a strategic use of international relations to protect subnational security and uphold democratic processes. By partnering with international monitoring teams to track and expose electoral misconduct, the state government strengthens its security architecture, deters political thuggery, and sets a standard for peaceful electoral administration in Nigeria.

Osun State Government Signs Partnership with Green Apple for Electric Vehicle Deployment

 The Osun State Government has signed a formal Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Green Apple HK Nigeria Limited to deploy electric vehicles across public departments and public transportation routes. Unveiling the pioneer fleet of the Imole Electric Motorbikes Initiative at the Government House in Osogbo, Governor Ademola Adeleke confirmed that the framework is structured to transition the state's public transit network from petrol-dependent vehicles to zero-emission alternatives.

High fuel costs have increased the overhead expenses of state ministries and raised commuter fares for residents. Partnering with private automotive technology providers to systematically deploy electric motorbikes, tricycles, cars, and mass transit buses helps the state lower the cost of public service logistics, cushion households from transport inflation, and advance its subnational clean energy and sustainable environmental agenda.

This green utility agreement highlights a tech-driven approach to municipal transportation tracking and cost control within the civil service. By formalizing operational frameworks with international clean-tech firms, the administration enhances its green asset base, reduces environmental pollution indices, and establishes a long-term model for public-private utility delivery.

Osun State Government Outlines Multi-Sectoral Capital Projects to Disprove Budgetary Misinformation

 The Osun State Government officially dismissed claims made by federal lawmaker Hon. Emmanuel Omirin alleged that he facilitated an unconstitutional ₦12 billion federal cash injection to the state executive. Issuing a formal rebuttal, the Spokesperson to the State Governor, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, challenged the lawmaker to present legal documentation for the alleged transaction. The administration counter-tracked the statement by releasing an audited project inventory detailing extensive infrastructure, education, and healthcare developments delivered across the Atakunmosa East Local Government Area within the last three years.

The administrative disclosure serves to protect public information channels from political propaganda while demonstrating equitable resource distribution across local government council areas. According to the state's performance record, executed capital works include the construction and rehabilitation of classrooms at Community Grammar School in Oko-Ago and St. Luke Anglican Primary School in Odogbo, multiple rural access road projects managed under the Rural Access and Agricultural Marketing Project (RAAMP), and the complete upgrade of five distinct primary healthcare centers.

This rapid communication response demonstrates the state executive's commitment to public sector transparency, truth-in-accounting, and data-backed accountability. By countering unverified claims with visible, auditable community assets, the administration strengthens institutional trust and safeguards public resources from political distortions. Furthermore, by formally requesting security agencies like the DSS and Nigeria Police to monitor and check any statements inciting election violence, the government reinforces public safety and steady policy execution.

Osun State Executive Council Commences Health Insurance Enrolment for Traditional Rulers and Unveils Agency Multipurpose Hall

Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, officially flagged off the comprehensive enrolment of traditional rulers and their queens into the Osun Health Insurance Scheme on Tuesday. Concurrently, the Governor commissioned the newly completed, legally mandated Osun Health Insurance Agency Multipurpose Hall in Osogbo. The dual administrative actions are part of the state government’s health sector expansion policy to scale up universal health coverage using institutional investments.

The initiative provides vulnerable demographic leaders and grassroots custodians with full, qualitative medical coverage through the Osun Health Insurance Agency, eliminating financial out-of-pocket hurdles. Structurally, enrolling royal fathers leverages their communal influence to turn them into grassroots advocates for social health insurance. The commissioning of the multipurpose facility provides the agency with the necessary administrative space to manage its growing database, which includes over 200 rehabilitated primary healthcare centers.

This dual-track development demonstrates a commitment to sustainable public service delivery and prudent resource allocation within public administration. Executing the project in strict compliance with the enabling laws of the state health insurance agency ensures institutional accountability and transparency. By prioritizing social safety nets for community leaders and expanding infrastructure, the administration solidifies the state's healthcare delivery indicators, leading to long-term human capital development and efficient public policy execution.

Osun State Government Establishes Mining Community Intelligence Architecture to Mitigate Internal Security Threats

The Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, convened an emergency stakeholders' security conference in Osogbo on Tuesday to implement immediate measures against criminal infiltration within the state’s mining sector. Represented by the Special Adviser on Security, Samuel Ojo, the Governor announced the formation of the Mining Community Intelligence Architecture. The directive mandates the immediate establishment of a 7-man Community Security Committee in all major mining areas across the Ife-Ijesa axis within 14 days to monitor unregulated migration and secure mining borders.

Unregulated movement and foreign infiltration within the mineral-rich areas of Osun State have introduced serious threats of banditry and parallel criminal taxation systems. The Ministry of Bureau of Social Services, the State Security Council, and traditional authorities are integrated into this new intelligence framework to screen and profile workers. The strategy ensures that the local mining economy remains formal, safe, and protected from criminal templates that have destabilized parts of the North West region.

This proactive policy implementation highlights the state executive's agile approach to risk management and internal security administration. By legally embedding traditional rulers, community committees, and the State Security Council into a unified command chain, the administration strengthens grassroots institutional capacity. Preventing the weaponization of natural resources protects the state's economic development blueprint, guarantees transparency in local revenue generation, and ensures public safety through structured community policing collaborations.
