Speaking in Abuja during the presentation of the Most Media Friendly Maritime CEO Award to Oyebamiji by the Coalition of Maritime Journalists of Nigeria, Fadahunsi said: “Acknowledging the significant challenges that the next administration will face, it is my belief that Oyebamiji’s public service experience and financial management skills will allow him to effectively address these issues.”
He highlighted Oyebamiji’s innovative approach and accomplished background in accounting, noting: “Accountants are prudent, methodical, and financially disciplined. They ensure resources are properly sourced and managed before embarking on projects.”
Senator Fadahunsi characterised Oyebamiji as a focused administrator who has consistently exemplified fiscal responsibility in public office. He referenced Oyebamiji’s tenure at the National Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA), where he implemented significant reforms and improvements in a short time.
“We are expecting him to replicate the transformation he accomplished at NIWA in Osun. The state is in distress, and the next leader must be ready to rebuild and strategically reposition it. I am confident he possesses the abilities required,” Fadahunsi said.
