Oyo State governor, Abiola Ajimobi, has said
his second term in office is resolved to reposition the state to a fiscally
functional, economically vibrant, socially harmonious and aesthetically
delightful preferred destination for investors. He listed the priority focus of
his administration as agriculture, wholesale and retail trade, manufacturing,
real estate, building and construction, hotel and restaurants, and solid
minerals among others.
In a passionate plea for more investments, the
governor harped on the state’s potentials and opportunities, which he said are
vast untapped farmlands and forest reserves, large pool of skilled and low-cost
labour, proximity to Lagos seaports, key transport route between the Southwest
and Northern Nigeria, key transport links to West African markets through its
border with Benin Republic, high market demand for hotels and hospitality
services and discounted land prices for establishment of businesses compared to
Lagos.
