Governor Ademola Adeleke has urged entrepreneurs not to be daunted by the current economic situation but rather continue to innovate to prosper.
He made the charge today at Ibadan while commissioning a major gas plant alongside the Dangote Refinery Booking office, urging entrepreneurs to continue to strive and thrive through persistence and adaptation.
According to the State Governor, “opportunities exist during economic turbulence for business people who can innovate and adjust their operational models.
“ We are commissioning a business today that is innovating in tune with the current economic climate. I use this event as a point of contact to all business operators. We know the environment is harsh but we must adapt.
“You cannot afford to give up. You have invested so much. Let’s refocus the business by reviewing the line of business. Let study what new lines the current situation is throwing up. Let’s cut costs and put God at the centre of our operations’ ‘, the Governor advised as he commissioned the business in the presence of several dignitaries.
The Governor while congratulating the CEO of the Dangote Refinery Booking Office, Mrs. Motunrayo Ajeigbe Akinlosotu, described her as resilient and dogged in seeing her dreams come through.
He expressed happiness that the CEO chooses to be part of the solution in Nigeria at a time many able Nigerians are selling their hard-earned fortunes and inheritance to seek greener pastures abroad in the name of Japa syndrome.
The Governor called on other Nigerians especially young entrepreneurs to defy all odds in pursuing their dreams to fruition.
Speaking earlier, the Managing Director of Mrs. Motunrayo Ajeigbe Akinlosotu, said the venture is a decade-long dream fulfilled, noting that the office will service clients from far and near.
The business owner who thanked God for making the dream possible despite the economic climate said the firm hjas a capacity for more than a billion naira product transaction.
“We are open for business with a promise to serve our client with integrity and professionalism”, the proprietor promised.
Governor Adeleke was accompanied by the Commissioner for Science and Innovations, Hon Maruf Ayofe; the South West Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), Hon Kamarudeen Ajisafe and other top government officials.

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun State has ordered an end to the bloodshed in the state.
Adeleke’s directive followed the breakout of deadly violence that erupted in local government secretariats across the state.
The governor confirmed that five members of the Peoples Democratic Party were killed during the crisis, while several others were injured.
On Monday, violence broke out when loyalists of the All Progressives Congress attempted to reinstate their local government chairmen, who were removed by a court ruling in 2022.
The opposition by PDP supporters led to chaos and a violent outbreak.
In the course of the violence, the reinstated chairman of Irewole Local Government Area, Mr. Remi Abass, was killed.
Reacting via a statement issued by his spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed, Adeleke accused the APC of trying to take over the local governments illegally.
He said: “PDP lost five members, with several others wounded.
“Two were killed in Iragbiji, Boripe Local Government. Another two died in Ola Oluwa Local Government, and one was killed in Ikire. This bloodshed must stop.”
Adeleke directed residents and politicians to stay away from the local government secretariats as a way to prevent violence.
He added: “Governor Adeleke has directed all Osun residents to avoid the LG secretariats to prevent more violence and protect public property.
“Since the local government workers are on strike, security agencies will take full control of the secretariats.”
