Gov Abiodun Commissions Multi-million Dollar Company In Ogun

Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has charged a newly commissioned firm in the state to adopt either a school or a primary health centre to rehabilitate to extend its quota contribution to the community.

Abiodun, who spearheaded the commissioning of the multi-million dollar packaging films plant yesterday, admonished firms operating in the state to engage in more Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programmes.

The Governor said CSR programmes when rendered, would further motivate the host communities and the people to support the growth and success of such a company.

He said: ”What I want to charge you is that area of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). It is good for you to come here, and employ our people, but you must also look after them because the more you look after them, the more they are willing to take ownership and be part of what you do and also protect it

“Please ensure that you wrap up on that Corporate Social Responsibility by adopting one of our schools around here, our primary health care center, providing subsidized transport for your staff. You know that whatever it is that you can do to support the welfare and well-being of these people, I am sure that they will also in turn appreciate that by being very motivated and dedicated and supporting your growth.”

Governor Abiodun said, during the address, that his government has been deliberate with its various policies to promote job creation and as well ensure the establishment of a focused and qualitative environment for the public-private sector to thrive.

He stressed that the focused and qualitative environment has continuously led to the transformation of the state as well as the economic growth and individual prosperity of the people.

The state helmsman noted that his administration has ensured the provision of adequate security in the state through the provision of security gadgets like bulletproof vests, communication equipment, motorcycles and vehicles for security agencies in the state. He added that the investment in infrastructure in the state was also done to make the state more accessible to investors.
