Governor of the State of Osun, Adegboyega Oyetola, has put together a 21-man Food and Relief Committee of Eminent Nigerians  to cushion the effect of restrictions on movement of goods and services in the state.

The committee members are Asiwaju Tunde Badmus, Chief Adebayo Jimoh, Pastor Enoch Adeboye,  Pastor Matthew Asimolowo, Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja I,  General Alani Akinrinade (Rtd), Chief Tunde Ponle, Rt Hon Patricia Etteh, Dr Akin Ogunbiyi, Sir Demola Aladekomo, Rt Hon Lasun Yusuff,  Dr Wale Babalakin and Dr Segun Aina.

Others are Mallam Yussuf Alli, SAN, Mrs Folorunsho Alakija, Mr. AbdulKabir Aliyu, Dr Deji Adeleke, Otunba Iyiola Omisore and three former governors of the state,  Chief Bisi Akande, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola and Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola.

The Committee will be chaired by Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye while  Chief Adebayo Jimoh will serve as the Secretary.

As the efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 continues with intense devotion, it has become inevitable to put in place Relief and Humanitarian Banks across the state. The state  appreciates its supportive friends, donors and partners, who have contributed to the project, including those who  have pleaded to remain anonymous.

Osun  has limited means yet unlimited needs to fulfil at this critical time and is therefore calling on its sons and daughters and also well meaning Nigerians to assist it in the provision of social relief to our people, and those who have been and will be impacted by the precautionary measures to curb the spread of the rampaging  virus.

Without doubt, the outbreak of the pandemic called COVID-19 will leave a strain on our economy, and the possibility of having a food crisis remains an implication of the various emergency responses to the disease.

The State Government of Osun therefore calls on indigenes of Osun across the nation (and beyond) and well-meaning Nigerians to kindly pitch in to support the State with social relief items ranging from food to cash, towards the enhancement of the food bank that the State is growing  at the moment.

It is believed that this kind of magnanimous outreach will help keep our people safe and comfortable during the period of the lockdown.

To ensure smooth and effective operations,  the state government will work hand-in-hand with the Committee. To this end,  those who want to contribute to this project can reach out to the Committee through the following numbers:

08167255906; 08032298961; & 08037004653

from where they will be directed to designated centres. The government will provide security clearance and cover to aid easy movement of materials.

Cash donations can also  be forwarded to :

Bank Name : UBA

Account Name – Osun State Covid -19 Support  Account.

Account Number- 1022749351.

Signed: Prince Wole Oyebamiji Secretary to the State Government
