Governor Sule Says Nasarawa Has a Lot to Learn From Ogun State
Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State has said that his state has a lot to learn from Ogun State in terms of revenue generation and its proximity to Lagos State.
Sule also appreciated the infrastructural drive of the Abiodun administration.
The governor, speaking during a courtesy visit to Governor Dapo Abiodun at the governor’s office, Oke Mosan, Abeokuta, said his visit was partly to tap into how Ogun State has been leveraging its proximity to Lagos.
Abdullahi said he wants to know how Governor Abiodun has taken advantage of the state’s proximity to Lagos, since Nasarawa is also close to Abuja.
Governor Sule also said he wants to know how Ogun State has been able to generate revenue while commending Abiodun for the dualization of the Abeokuta-Sagamu interchange expressway.

He said, “I am even more happy that most of these projects are done at the grassroots as people will be able to benefit, especially in the area of agriculture, health and education.”
