LEARN FROM PITFALLS OF OUTGOING ADMINISTRATION, CLERIC TELLS OGUN GOVERNOR-ELECT
The Clergyman urged the incoming Governor to meticulously study his predecessor to ascertain why he came to governance in a blaze of glory at dawn only to start “rushing” to complete at Sunset what he could have easily accomplished in the morning.
The Cleric who earlier prayed for the success of Abiodun’s incoming government in the State, pointed out that that if the new incoming administration could learn useful lessons from the previous governments he would be able to steer clear of their pitfalls and end up becoming an “exemplary Governor” for Ogun State.
