The Chairman of Moba Local Government Area, Hon. Bamidele Fadugba, has embarked on a strategic tour to visit revered traditional rulers across the region.
The initiative is aimed at seeking royal blessings, promoting unity and driving development within the local government area.
Accompanying Hon. Fadugba on the tour were the Vice Chairman, Hon. Najimudeen Adedokun, key management team members, legislative council representatives and other stakeholders, underscoring the administration’s commitment to inclusive governance.
The journey commenced at Ira-Ekiti, where the chairman engaged the monarch in meaningful discussions centred on the town’s progress.
A major focus of the visit was the need to enhance the local government’s internally generated revenue (IGR) through active community participation, with Hon. Fadugba emphasizing that improved IGR would fast-track development, enabling the administration to deliver on its promises.
In response, the royal father offered prayers for success and urged the community to support government initiatives.
Similar engagements took place at Epe-Ekiti, Osun-Ekiti and Iro-Ekiti, where the chairman stressed the importance of lawful contributions to boost revenue.
He explained how increased IGR would translate into tangible benefits such as better infrastructure, improved education, enhanced healthcare services and other essential amenities.
Hon. Fadugba reiterated his administration’s commitment to fostering unity, delivering impactful projects and continuing to ensure inclusive governance.
The traditional rulers in the communities commended the administration’s efforts, prayed for its success and encouraged their subjects to collaborate with the government for collective progress.
The tour concluded at Osan-Ekiti, where the Olosan of Osan, HRM Oba Tajudeen Bamidele Jimoh, praised the administration for its transparency and inclusive approach.
Oba Bamidele offered prayers for divine guidance and urged residents to view their contributions as long-term investments in the development of their communities.
The tour not only strengthened the bond between the government and traditional institutions but also served as a platform to mobilize public participation in revenue generation, laying a solid foundation for the growth and prosperity of the Moba Local Government Area.
