The Special Adviser to the Osun State Governor on Civic Engagement, Mr Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, on Sunday said the review of some policies of the past administration was, among other reasons, due to demands by stakeholders.
Oyintiloye, who stated this in Osogbo, said periodic review of policies should not be regarded as political vendetta.
He said the administration of Governor Adegboyega Oyetola was building on the good policy of former governor Rauf Aregbesola’s administration, but would not mind to tinker with any underperforming policies.
He said, “Any policy review made by the government should not only be seen as a way of responding to sociopolitical dynamics in the state, but as a process borne out of compelling circumstances meant to advance good and at the same time, satisfy the yearnings of the stakeholders.
“Reviews of policy, as diligently being executed by Governor Oyetola, are not in any way throwing tantrums or vendettas at any past administration.
“Some of the projects of the past administration that the present administration has given maximum attention to include the Osogbo-Ikirun-Ila Odo Road cconstruction, Gbongan-Akoda Road Construction, Oba Adesoji Aderemi East bypass road and the water project in Ilesa.
Review of some of the policies by the Oyetola-led administration has been more of rational demands on the part of the stakeholders in the state, while the government also acceded to the unarguable fact that citizens are at liberty to request a policy review at any given period of time.”
