OYEBANJI SETS SIGHTS ON INDUSTRIALISATION, SMALL BUSINESSES

Ekiti State Governor Biodun Oyebanji says his administration will prioritise industrialisation and the growth of small businesses in his second term, following its focus on infrastructure development.

Oyebanji said the next phase of his administration would focus on strengthening the state’s economy, supporting local businesses and creating more opportunities for residents.

The governor’s plan places industrial development and small business growth at the centre of his proposed economic agenda for the next four years.

Small and medium-sized enterprises play an important role in job creation and economic activity. Increased support for these businesses could help entrepreneurs expand their operations and create employment opportunities across Ekiti State.

Industrialisation is also expected to be a major focus, with the aim of encouraging investment and expanding economic activities beyond infrastructure development.

Oyebanji’s comments signal a proposed shift towards economic growth and enterprise development as his administration prepares for its second term. Further details on specific programmes, funding and implementation plans were not provided in the information available.
