President Muhammad Buhari will tomorrow (Thursday) pay a one-day working visit to Osun State, during which he will commission the newly built 3,000 students capacity in Osogbo Government High School, Osogbo, the state capital.
This was announced in a statement issued by the Director, Bureau of Communication and Strategy in the Office of the Governor, Mr. Semiu Okanlawon, who described Buhari’s planned visit to Osun as a testimony to the landmark achievements in the almost six years of Governor Rauf Aregbesola.
Adding that the scheduled visit goes to show the good working relationship between Osun and the Federal Government, the state government urged the people of the state to demonstrate the ethos they have been known for and accord a rousing welcome to the President.
The statement reads in part, “From our own corner of this great country, we are poised to set examples on how to solve many of the national social economic and political complications confronting us. The magnificent Osogbo Government High School President Muhammadu Buhari will be commissioning on Thursday is illustrative of the magnitude of our ideas and interventions in the education sector. We remain unrelenting as we continue our assault on delayed infrastructure in our education sector and all other sectors.
“We urge the good people of the state to maintain the peace that the state is noted for during and after the President’s visit. We ask them to give a rousing welcome to our amiable President.
“We call on our people particularly the people of Osogbo and its environs, to come out in their great numbers and give our President a befitting welcome during his visit to our state.
“Mr. President’s visit is historic because it marks the first official Presidential visit to the state since we assumed office as the Governor of this great state,” the statement averred.
