No fewer than 100 students of Oru-Ijebu in Ijebu North Local Government Area of Ogun State have been offered scholarship under the Scheme initiated by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr. Tokunbo Talabi.
The SSG announcing the beneficiaries at Oru-Ijebu Town Hall, during an interactive meeting with youths in Oru, explained that the scholarship was put in place to enhance the socio-economic prospects of people of his hometown for better livelihood.
Talabi added that the Prince Dapo Abiodun-led government had done a lot of infrastructural developments in Ijebu North Local Government Area, as no fewer than five major roads had been constructed, while some of the youths were recruited through the OgunTeach Scheme.
He encouraged the beneficiaries to key into the various employment opportunities and initiatives of the State government including the Oko'wo Dapo which had generated a turnover of over N500 million, assuring that the government would look into reviving and refurbishing the Customary Court in Oru with the deployment of judicial staff.
While lending their voices, the youths appreciated the generosity of the State’s scribe for interacting with them, soliciting for more provision of social amenities in the area, as well as clear-cut delineation of the borders between Oru and Ago-Iwoye areas.
