Adeleke emphasised that the government was committed to providing more support to ensure healthcare services were more accessible to where people live and work.
She also highlighted that such services were part of the democratic benefits promised by the current administration in the state.
“Recently, our state received an award for being the best performing state in Primary Health Care in the South West. This demonstrates that Gov. Ademola Adeleke prioritises the health of the people,” she said.
She encouraged the association members to prioritise health to live longer, stressing, “Health is wealth.”
Adeleke also shared positive feedback from the public, noting that the people have rated the administration highly in health, infrastructure, and education.
“We must express our appreciation to our people,” she added.
She further urged members to protect their culture, language, and traditions by passing them on to their children.
“It is important for our children to understand that they are from Osun State, particularly our villages and towns. We should always encourage them to visit home once in a while,” she said.
She also conveyed the governor’s greetings to the association members on the occasion.
Mr Suleiman Olapade, Chairman of the Association of Osun State Indigenes in Federal Public Service, Abuja, thanked the Osun State government for its support.
Olapade commended the executives and members for their efforts to uplift the association and urged them to serve as true ambassadors of the state.
He also encouraged members to intensify efforts to promote good governance in Osun.
According to Olapade, the objectives of the association include promoting the legitimate interests of members, empowering them through cooperative societies, and fostering mutual benefits.
In his address, Chief Omolade Adebayo of Tundunwada, Lugbe, Abuja, urged members to value unity, respect, love, and mutual understanding among themselves.
He emphasised that these qualities were crucial for the sustainability and longevity of any successful association.
