The approval of the University of Agriculture and Technology sites at Okeho marks a momentous occasion for the Oke-Ogun zone of Oyo State. This development represents a significant leap forward in the pursuit of educational excellence and socio-economic advancement for the community.

For years, the people of Oke-Ogun have harboured the dream of having a higher institution that would not only provide quality education but also serve as a catalyst for regional development. This dream has now become a reality. Thanks to the visionary leadership of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, whose dedication to fostering agricultural innovation and technological progress through this institution reflects his resolve to uplift communities and drive national developments.

The establishment of a specialised university in Oke-Ogun, renowned for its agricultural heritage, is significant due to its potential to enhance local skills, knowledge, productivity, innovation, and sustainable practices, contributing to the overall growth and development of Nigeria’s agricultural sector.

The University of Agriculture and Technology is set to significantly impact Oke-Ogun and Oyo State, driving agricultural innovation, productivity, and job creation. This will boost investment, business opportunities, and livelihoods for farmers and rural communities. The university will also provide quality education for the youth, promote community development, social cohesion, and improved healthcare outcomes, transforming Oke-Ogun into a prosperous region.

The approval for the establishment of the university came after years of dedication and collaboration from various stakeholders. Community leaders, traditional rulers, and government officials have been instrumental in making this dream a reality. Special recognition is given to those who worked behind the scenes, navigating bureaucratic hurdles and building consensus among diverse interests. This achievement demonstrates the power of collective action and the potential for success in overcoming obstacles.

Now that the University of Agriculture and Technology has been approved for the Oke Ogun region, it is imperative that all stakeholders come together to ensure its successful establishment and operation. This requires a spirit of unity, cooperation, and collective responsibility. The community must embrace the university as its own, providing support and guidance to ensure that it meets the needs of the region.

As we celebrate this momentous occasion, let us remember that the success of this university will depend on our collective efforts and unwavering commitment. Let us work together to build a world-class institution that will empower the youth of Oke-Ogun, transform the agricultural sector, and contribute to the prosperity of Nigeria. The future is bright, and with hard work, dedication, and unity, we can achieve our dreams and build a better tomorrow for all.

In appreciation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s unwavering commitment to the progress of the Oke Ogun region and Oyo State at large, the good people of Oke Ogun and Oyo State in general stand firmly in support of the second term bid of Mr President and will further show their appreciation in the 2027 general elections.

God bless Oke Ogun, God bless Oyo State and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
