Ajimobi, Aregbesola Committed to Regional Integration of South-West States

At the official launch of the Western Post newspaper in Ibadan yesterday, Governor Abiola Ajimobi who was represented by the Deputy Governor said that it was continued lack of good governance at the center that has made an integration of the south-west region necessary in order to promote their economic strategies rather than continue to depend on a single source of national revenue.

His Osun state counterpart, Rauf Aregbesola who was represented by his state’s Director of Communication and Strategy, Mr Semiu Okanlawon, also said Osun state is in full support of regional integration. He said further that “the first thing we need is to understand the comparative advantage of the concept. Each of the states has what they have in common and they need to utilize it.”
