4 December 2024

An All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant in Osun State, Mr. Kabiru Adeniyi Adisa, said he has the experience and capacity to transform the state into an economic hub.

Adisa, a chartered accountant, also said he is the best APC aspirant for the 2026 governorship election in the South West State.

In a statement yesterday, the aspirant said he will deploy his experience, leadership and track record of impactful community service which qualifies him to lead the state towards a prosperous future.

He said his background in financial planning, industrial project management and sourcing affordable funding will enable him transform Osun into a hub of industrial and economic activity.

"As a committed leader, I have dedicated over two decades to community development, launching transformative programmes such as scholarships, maternal and infant health initiatives, and youth empowerment projects that have positively impacted thousands across Osun State.

"My tenure as President of the Guildance Community Development Foundation and my experience as a Financial Controller in the corporate sector have equipped me with the skills to deliver measurable results, manage resources effectively, and drive inclusive growth.

"My commitment to empowering the youth and women of Osun is steady. Through initiatives like summer classes for secondary school students, scholarship schemes, and an interest-free loan program benefiting women and youth over the last six years, I have demonstrated my dedication to building capacity and fostering economic opportunities. These efforts align with my vision for a progressive and prosperous Osun State.

"I have a deep connection to the grassroots and a firm dedication to the vulnerable. My governance will be inclusive and people-centered, ensuring that the needs of both rural and urban communities are addressed. Through initiatives like providing mobility aids, clothing, and academic materials, I have consistently shown my commitment to uplifting the most vulnerable members of our society.

"Osun State is blessed with abundant mineral resources and a wealth of tourism attractions. My administration will leverage these assets to finance social projects and drive sustainable development. Also, my strong connections with foreign donors from the United States, Europe, and Arab countries will ensure a steady flow of resources for the advancement of Osun State.

"Under the banner of Together for a Progressive Osun, I will unite our state, transcending political and social divides to deliver development, transparency, and integrity in governance. My clear and actionable plans will address pressing challenges in healthcare, education, infrastructure, and equitable resource distribution," he said.
