It is my pleasure to be here to personally attend the conclusion stage of this investment summit. I was glad I virtually reached out to this summit when it started. My deputy, Prince Kola Adewusi also did a good job representing me at the opening session.
Now I'm here to say thank you to all guests and investors, both locally and internationally. As you can see Osun is open for business.
Several speakers have pitched Osun to potential investors. I'm however the Chief marketer of Osun economy and her potential. As a businessman myself, Osun is no doubt a destination of choice.
I read Aree Dele Momodu's presentation where he robustly promoted the Osun case from the perspective of an investor. That brilliant submission and many others correctly paint the reality of Osun state. This is a state where robust policy framework and enabling environment combine with buoyant local economic resources.
Our agenda to industrialize Osun is not a joke.We are multitasking on various fronts to achieve that goal. This investment summit is a first step. There will also be a future investment summit which will directly involve development partners, donor agencies, global leaders of the private sector, multinational companies and investment arms of western and Asian governments. An inter-ministerial panel will soon be put in place to work on this next phase.
I commend the Commissioner for Commerce and Industry alongside his team for organizing this summit. This has placed Osun on the map of the business community. I expect detailed reports listing sectors for which investors have shown interest.
Once again, I thank all participants. Help spread the news-Osun is ready for business.
HE, Senator Ademola Adeleke, Executive Governor of Osun State
