The Governor of Ondo State, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, has promised that Ore, a commercial town in Odigbo Local Government Area of the State to a fully industrial town before 2024.
Speaking on Friday when he visited Odigbo LGA, Akeredolu said, “my second term shall be a blessing to the younger generation.
“By the grace of God, we have just started. We started with the Ore Redemption Bridge because we needed to ensure safety before hitting the ground fully.
“I am a believer in God. I am saying again, that by the grace of God, Ore will be turned to a new Nnewi before February 2024. Presently, we have seven companies here, including a cassava to ethanol factory. And because of that, cassava is now like gold in Ondo. The cassava available in Ondo State is not even enough for the factory, the company go as far as Taraba State to get Cassava.
“I want to congratulate all cassava farmers in Ondo on this feat. We have produced a market for you to sell your cassava. Ore and the entire Southern Senatorial District are where we want to use to run our industrialisation policy.
“The factories will be at the Ore Industrial Parks, the Bitumen Exploration shall be operating in Ikale while the Sea Port will be in Ilaje.
“I, therefore, congratulate the younger people of our state on what is ahead of them. My second term shall be a blessing to the young people because our future bleaks if we fail to develop the younger generation.
“So, we need your vote to return to office. Without continuity and consistency in governance, we are going nowhere.”
Meanwhile, the Governor also commissioned a skill acquisition centre designed to cater for various life-skill training for the youth of the state.
